Flat Panel Antennas
The Flat Panel antenna shown in Figure 1-20 is available as an
integrated or external antenna. Flat panel antennas are suitable for
short range, typically in Access applications. They are relatively
cheap, use comparatively little tower space and are robust under
extreme weather conditions.

Parabolic Dish Antennas
The Parabolic dish antenna is a high-gain, reflector antenna used for
radio, television, and data communications. The relatively short wave-
length of electromagnetic (radio) energy at these frequencies allows
reasonably sized reflectors to exhibit the very desirable highly direc-
tional response for both receiving and transmitting.

Grid Antennas
Grid antennas are used for 2.4 GHz applications. Due to the large
size, the grid design minimizes weight and wind loading.

See the Ceragon products catalog for Ceragon offering of external antennas. External anten-
nas are also available from antenna vendors.
FibeAir2000 Manager
The FibeAir2000 Manager is an SNMP-based management application which manages a com-

between the ODU units. The intuitive, easy-to-use FibeAir2000 Manager has a graphical
Microsoft Windows interface, and can be run locally and remotely.
