Overview:

The Aruba AirMesh MSR1200 delivers high-performance wireless mesh routing to indoor environments where wired connectivity is impractical or unavailable.

Ensuring seamless mobility with Aruba outdoor wireless mesh networks, the MSR1200 is ideal for indoor deployments where backhaul cabling is difficult to deploy, such as in large retail centers, convention sites, warehouses or when a temporary network is needed.

A multi-radio, multi-frequency architecture and adaptive Layer 3 routing using the Aruba MeshOS™ operating system make the MSR1200 unique. Together, they provide unparalleled speed, reliability, low latency and seamless handoffs for voice, HD-quality video and other real-time applications across long-distance outdoor wireless mesh networks.

Features:

Flexible, High-performance Architecture

The MSR1200 consists of two independent 802.11n radios for flexible indoor wireless mesh deployments using the 2.4- GHz and 5-GHz bands.

Each radio is capable of providing a maximum aggregate transmit power of up to 23 dBm. Each radio may be configured to operate as a Wi-Fi access point (AP) and provide full mesh backhaul. This dual-radio architecture separates client access and mesh backbone data while optimizing radio resources for both types of traffic to ensure high throughput and low latency.

Intelligent Wireless Mesh Routing

Integrated with Aruba MeshOS, Adaptive Wireless Routing™ (AWR™) technology automatically optimizes traffic routes between wireless mesh routers and creates a truly adaptive mesh infrastructure.

With AWR, the mesh infrastructure adjusts dynamically to traffic levels and RF signal strength to ensure high availability and zero performance degradation across multiple network hops.

Aruba’s MobileMatrix™, another key MeshOS Layer 3 technology, allows Wi-Fi clients to move between wireless mesh routers in less than 50 milliseconds, maintaining a seamless connection for latency-sensitive applications, such as video and voice.

HD-quality Video

For HD-quality video from mobile and fixed surveillance cameras, monitors and recording systems, the Active Video Transport™ (AVT™) technology in MeshOS provides traffic shaping and load balancing across the mesh.

AVT uses deep packet inspection, MAC protocol optimization, in-network retransmission protocol and adaptive video jitter removal to deliver enhanced video at up to 30 frames per second.
