Availability by rain zone
While previous wireless backhaul solutions were hampered by fog, dust, snow and even light rain, and
as a result have not been able to attain the high availability required by carriers, equipment operating in
the 70/80Ghz spectrum today is only affected by extreme heavy rainfall (i.e. > 100mm/hr (4in/hr).
The chart below shows the approximate link distance for the FlexWave MMW 125 for each of the rain
zones at various levels of availability.
