Altai A8
Super WiFi Base Station

The Altai A8 Super WiFi Base Station is the worlds
leading WiFi outdoor access point optimized for
maximum coverage from a minimum number of
installation sites. The Altai A8 has been designed to
provide industry best coverage and capacity
without complicated networking protocols or the
need for a high density of transmitters.
Whether deployed for a single location, a campus

area or city-wide network coverage, the Altai A8 is
designed to minimize the total cost of ownership with
significant savings in network equipment,
broadband access, planning, site acquisition and
installation.
The Altai A8 can also serve as last mile infrastructure
for a wide range of wireless broadband access
applications. It provides low deployment cost and
fast provisioning of WiFi systems with the greatest
coverage and bandwidth per installed base
station.
The A8 Super WiFi Base Station can also be deployed
in conjunction with existing 3G networks to provide
low cost high bandwidth mobile data offloading
solution. The A8 can be co-located with existing 3G
cell sites allowing immediate WiFi provisioning at
much lower acquisition and operating costs.
The A8 is a multi-radio base station utilizing smart

antenna technologies and a patented signal
processing algorithm to provide the industrys best
coverage per base station, especially in non-line-of
sight (NLOS) environments. The multiple antennas
of the A8 can be configured to provide coverage
that is optimized for area, pattern and elevation.
Using up to 80% fewer access points than other WiFi
systems to cover the same area enables less
complex network design and provides lower
latency for improvement in handling real-time
applications such as VoIP and video streaming.
As an integral part of our Super WiFi network infrastructure, key benefits of the Altai A8 include:
Extended coverage in a Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS)
environment which matches the foot print of most 3G

deployments in dense urban environments
Dual-diversity advanced Smart Antenna Technology to
provide flexible 90 to 360-degree coverage with minimal

holes in dense urban environments
Multi-radio platform to maximize both uplink/downlink

performance and access redundancy
Link integrity, backhaul link self healing and access link

safe mode
Adaptive interference control mitigates the influence from

surrounding interfering sources
Supports real-time applications such as VoIP, video-
streaming and interactive gaming with minimal latency
Standard 802.11b/g access and 802.11a backhaul

Fast Ethernet or integrated 802.11a wireless backhaul
Flexible antenna deployment for various site conditions
Remote configuration through the Altai Wireless
Management System (AWMS)
