 My name is Tasos. I'm with RF Elements. I run North America Operations for RF Elements, and today we'll be talking about our antenna technology and our solutions for fast, sustainable wireless. Our key motto here is to grow smart, reject noise, and save spectrum. So the items we'll be talking about is wireless as kind of we see it and how it pertains to you, as well as a technology spotlight, some future products that we have coming out that we'll be unveiling today for the first time for 2017. So today's key challenge is really spectrum. We all know that. The noise floor is just climbing day after day after day. And we only have a finite fixed amount of spectrum. And even in that spectrum that we have, you know, we're constantly fighting the battles with tighter and tighter restrictions for, you know, out-of-band emissions, power levels, you know, frequency spectrum going from DFS to non-DFS. I mean, we just have a lot of challenges even within the spectrum that we currently have. The ability to use and maximize that spectrum is key for growing and dealing with the challenges that we have today. So again, the main problem is RF pollution, right? That's basically what's happening. The antenna systems that we're using today or the radio systems for outdoor wireless is making the RF pollution problem grow at an exponential level. And mainly it's because this problem is created by today's poorly designed gear that's being deployed. And the noise situation that we have is, you know, purely a function of signals that are traveling way past our coverage area, further than we need it to be, and in unintentional directions, directions we don't expect it to. And it could be categorized as basically any signal that's not the intended signal for your target, whether you're generating it or not. If it's not intended for your receiver, then it's considered noise regardless. So basically RF elements we deliver fast sustainable wireless. And we do that by rejecting noise, creating systems that have zero loss or almost no loss. And we give you massive scalability on a, you know, a level that has never been seen before. So I'd like to move on to the new products that we're bringing you to the market here in 2017. I hope you're as excited as I am to see some of these products. Again, I think we're bringing some game changing innovation to another particular segment of the wireless market. So this one is already pretty well known. We wanted to highlight the twist port adapter for the newest Rocket AC prism because it for now is really fully available. And it's pretty much at all distributors. So we just wanted to kind of highlight and bring that to light. The next product that we're announcing in 2017 is a twist port adapter for the air fiber five X. So for those high capacity back halls that everybody wants to do, you now have a twist port adapter for the air fiber five X. And actually the adapter is pretty similar to the prism adapter. It just requires this little extra plastic mounting piece to kind of change the angle of the adapter or the radio so it fits into the adapter. So you should start seeing these things ship probably in Q one of 2017. So now you have some more options for for air fiber five X. So now we take you into the the point to point directional antenna segment of our business, right? We've brought to you horn and tennis for point to multi point. And I know in the early days people thought that they were kind of point to point antennas. But here are some some new point to point antennas that we're bringing to the market in 2017. So the ultra dish series. So the main thing is we brought you best in class beam performance. So so something I want to speak about we have you know, our horn antennas and then we have kind of traditional sectors as well, right? There are only so many things that you can do with kind of these, let's say older technologies, a parabolic dish antenna, you know, there's only so much you can do to suppressing side lobes and making the performance better. So we revisited our old twist port 380 dish antenna. And again, we redefined it to have a much wider frequency range. So now it covers the whole five gig spectrum. And we adjusted the parabolic to try and suppress the side lobes as much as possible. So they're still there because it's inherent to a parabolic dish antenna. But this is about as good of a RF performance that you can get out of a parabolic dish on the market. So I spoke about the wide band performance. So we have two versions. We have the TP 400 and then we have the TP 550. The 400 is our 24 dB gain version. And the TP 550 is our 27 dB version. So basically the 450 is millimeters. It's the size. So it's roughly about a foot and a half on the 400 and about a two foot in comparison to the 550. So if you look at our vertical to horizontal beam performance, you can see that the gain is very balanced across the spectrum in both polarities, something that's very important in MIMO links today. The twist port again is a huge part of our antenna ecosystem. So you can easily take, you know, a rocket or a prism radio that you have a twist port adapter for now that you might be using in a point to multi-point. You can just unclick it and throw it on here. And now you have a point to point radio solution and antenna solution to go along with it. We've also re-innovated the mounting system. So we had a lot of feedback from the field about the mounting system for the previous generation. The new mounting system now is way more robust. It has better screws for tightening it down. The way the antenna just drops into the mounting bracket now is way smoother. It's easier to align. We've re-engineered the ergonomics of the carrying handle, the red handle that you see on there. We put a hole in there for your carabiner or whatever you hook so you can hook it to your belt and carry it up or put a rope on it. So again, you know, we did, we looked at parabolic dish antennas and kind of tried to, you know, create the best solution possible. Again, always from the user experience, the installer out there, the RF performance to give you the best side-loop suppression that's possible for the type of antenna technology that we're doing. And again, you know, the user experience all in all. So this is basically, you know, as good as it gets for parabolic dish antennas. So again, these antennas come in two sizes, right? We have our 24 dB version with an MSRP of $100, so it's pretty good. And then our 27 dB version is $129. So if you compare this to some of the parabolic dish antennas out there, the price is pretty, pretty affordable. And you'll find again with the, you know, side-loop suppression and again the way we don't manipulate the beam too much, you'll get very good noise isolation and therefore you'll get much better link distances based on our gain than you're used to with higher gain solutions from other people. So, right? So, where do we go from here? Right? The Ultra Horn. Yay! Feel free to take pictures and tweet and send out posts. So the Ultra Horn is the ultimate point-to-point antenna. It is for the first time in the market a antenna for point-to-points with no side-lobes, right? So we brought it to you first with sector antennas. Now we're doing that with point-to-point antennas. No longer do you need shrouds. No longer do you need, you know, special shielding. We give you pure gain again from the radio out to the antenna. Just like you've seen again with all of our multi-point horn antennas, the Ultra Horn will give you that same type of noise rejection, high co-location capabilities of having a pure RF signal with no side-lobes. So, let's look at the noise rejection. Again, on the left is your basic parabolic dish antenna. You can see very complex side-lobes. Something to also note is if you look at the side-lobes that are in the very front, you see that there's those two lobes above the main lobe. You know, many people are putting shrouds on their current parabolic dish antennas thinking that it's really going to suppress the side-lobes. Those main secondary lobes are at such a tight and straight angle that they go right through it. You know, the shroud only really protects those second and third large ones that are out in the side, some, right? With Ultra Horn, there are no side-lobes, so you don't have to worry about any of that old extra add-ons that you've been doing right now for point-to-point links. So, I think for AirFiber 5x it would be a fantastic antenna. Again, let's just show you some noise rejection. So, the simulations, I mean, these simulations really speak volumes about how our antennas work. And again, you can see a typical parabolic dish antenna. And quite frankly, our twist port antenna is still a parabolic, so you'll see some of those effects of the side lobes. But when you compare it to an Ultra Horn antenna, again, it's as clean as it gets. Your signal is only going straight ahead. Another, you know, misconception is everybody's always looking for the tightest beam angle possible, right? So, they want the highest gain parabolic dish antenna because they're expecting a 10-degree or maybe an 8-degree wide beam, which is a function of the gain. But very often, we totally ignore the reception capability of the side lobes on those same parabolic dish antenna. So, you think you're getting a 10-degree beam, and you think you're getting 10 degrees of isolation, but you're not because that parabolic dish antenna is really hearing 60 or 70 degrees worth of spectrum. So, again, Ultra Horn with no side lobes, you get nothing but main beam connectivity. The Ultra Horn, again, like I said, comes with a twist port technology. So, you'll be able to use an Ultra Horn with any of the current radios that you're using right now, whether it's a Cambian, Microtech, or, you know, pretty much any of the ubiquity radios out there. So, high gain, right? Both of our Ultra Horns, we have two Ultra Horns, we have the 21 and the 24 dB version. Again, we have very balanced gain, and actually, this is a very high gain. I'm sure we're going to go through the same type of, you know, initial feedback where you're used to a 30 plus dB gain parabolic dish antenna and how is a 24 dB parabolic dish going to do anything near what a 31 or 32 can do. And I'll tell you right now with, again, if you look at link budget, not only with the forward gain part of the equation, but you look at the noise filtering part, you're going to gain an extra 10, possibly even 15 dB of noise isolation to your link budget. So, I know for a fact that the 21 and 24 will outperform higher specced mainstream parabolic dish antennas on the market today. Again, we talked about no shielding being necessary. Again, it's just an antenna, you mount it and you go, no extra shielding, no shrouds, nothing to worry about, very elegant and very well built. The mounting system is, again, reinvented and used, the same thing as we're using in our twist port antennas or our twist port Ultra dish and the price points for them. So, the 21 dB version will be $299 and the 24 dB version will be $299.
