Overview of ePMP
This section introduces the key features, typical uses, product variants, and components of the ePMP
portfolio as a whole (ePMP fourth-generation) products.
Purpose – ePMP portfolio
ePMP Series products from Cambium Networks are designed for Ethernet bridging over Point-to-
Multipoint (PMP)and Point-to-Point (PTP) microwave links in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz, 2.5 GHz (Brazil
only), 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands.
Attention
Ensure that the ePMP Series comply with the local operating regulations.
ePMP devices support Point-to-Point microwave links in the unlicensed 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands.
The ePMP Series acts as a transparent bridge between two segments of the operator and customers’
networks. In this sense, it can be treated as a virtual wired connection between the Access Point (AP) and
the Subscriber Module (SM). The ePMP series forwards 802.3 Ethernet packets destined for the other
part of the network and filters packets it does not need to forward and can deliver uni-cast data to
unknown destinations as broadcast, similar to a switch functionality.
Force 4600C
Force 4600C is the fourth-generation 2x2 MIMO connectorized Subscriber Module (SM) that carries on
the interference tolerance mechanisms with an emphasis on high-performance in low-density Point-to-
Multipoint (PMP) sectors and Point-to-Point (PTP)applications. The Force 4600C provides 2 Gbps
capacity in PTPapplications meeting the requirements of enterprise, industrial, government, and service
providers.
