NanoBeam, PowerBeam & LightBeam

NanoBeam is much better than NanoStation & PowerBeam is better than NanoBridge

• NanoStation M5 has a 60-degree beam and a 10dBi antenna. MSRP is $89.95


• LightBeam M5 ($48.51) & LightBeam 5AC ($58.41) have an 8-degree beamwidth
• NanoBeam and PowerBeam M5 have a 30-degree beamwidth:
  • PBE-M5-300 has a 23dBi antenna: MSRP: $84.95
  • PowerBeam PBE-M5-400 has a 25dBi antenna. MSRP: $94.95 (our prices are lower than MSRP)
  • NanoBeam NBE-M516 has a 16dBi antenna: MSRP: $67.95
  • NanoBeam NBE-M519 has a 19dBi antenna: MSRP: $89.95
  
  
• When Nanobeam is connecting to AP there is very little difference in signal at client side. On AP side it is usually better by about 3db, and usually results in a better connection. With a long distance you will see improvement; very short distance that you will not see much improvement.

• In ideal conditions on a long link: You might get 30mb more throughput with the PowerBeam vs. NanoBridge.

• NanoBridge M5 has 10/100MB Ethernet ports, while the NanoBeam M5-400 has 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports: Only the PBE-M5-400 has a GigaBit ethernet interface, the PBE-M5-300 only has 10/100.


• For short links you can save some money buying the NanoBridge M5 22dBi NB5G22 , vs. PowerBeam M5
