Safari Network User Guide
Subnetwork Control Unit (SCU)
The SCU allows the administrator to create additional,
semi-autonomous cells in the Safari Network that are
managed by the NCU. These cells may be contiguous or
non-contiguous. By deploying SCUs, the administrator can
circumvent line-of-sight obstacles and extend the range of
the Safari Network. The SCU also controls and manages its
associated RUs. The SCU directs bandwidth utilization
through channel assignment, frame synchronization,
frequency synchronization, packet assembly and packet
routing.
Each SCU is comprised of two radio modules synchronized
to operate simultaneously without degradation in
performance. Each radio module has its own independent
antenna (see Figure 1-3). Depending on the traffic flow,
the SCU may improve the overall network data
throughput. Multiple levels of SCUs can be added to the
Safari Network without adversely affecting the network
operation.
