The PRM2141X is a complete 802.11ad adapter with advanced features for long range, outdoor applications. It utilizes the Peraso X720 802.11ad 60GHz phased array chipset which includes a baseband processor and a high-power mmWave beamformer transceiver RFIC. The PRM2141X is a member of Peraso’s PERSPECTUS 60 product line and is compatible with the PRM2142X and PRM2143X.
The PRM2141X incorporates
- Antenna integrated in the PCB
- 16-element phased array antenna which can be used with or without a dish reflector
- Uniform performance over the entire 802.11ad band from 57 to 71 GHz
The Baseband processor is the PRS4601-B2E which provides
- MAC and PHY layer functionality
- 802.11ad operation
- USB 3.0 physical interface to host
- Supports
- Point-to-point
- Point-to-multipoint
The PRS1165 RFIC provides
- 16 RF chains with high transmit power levels
- All 6 of the 802.11ad/ay defined channels
The 60GHz band is allocated for unlicensed operation in most countries around the world enabling private and Wireless Internet Service Provider networks without purchasing spectrum.
Point-to-point, Fixed Wireless, and Point-to-Multipoint, Fixed Wireless Access radio equipment can be rapidly developed using 60GHz modules which fully integrate the RFIC, baseband processor and beamforming antennas. Baseband operating conforms to the IEEE 802.11ad protocols and utilizes channel bandwidths of 2GHz to provide multi-gigabit data throughput.
High EIRP modules can enable
- Operation in the upper 66-71 GHz region (where allowed)
- Link range over 100's of meters
- Ranges over 25km with the added gain of a dish reflector
Peraso's Perspectus series of 60GHz modules are designed for a variety of fixed wireless applications and are
- Installed with firmware supporting the 802.11ad protocol
- 802.11ad wireless device drivers provided for Linux
- Extensions optimize performance for long range and multi-user installations.
This module incorporates a Hirose BM28 series, board-to-board connector for data, power and ground. Please see the associated product recommendations for the evaluation kit which includes USB adapter board and heat sink accessories.
