A Gigabit microwave IP Link has been installed in Honduras covering a distance of 70 Km over the ocean.

The link provides ultra-high capacity IP connectivity between the mainland and the island of Roatan, off the coast of Honduras.

Operating in a license band, the link significantly increases the total wireless capacity between the mainland and Roatan.With a capacity of 900 Mbps full duplex, the link has been in operation for several months with good performance.

The link was installed and commissioned by the customers’ technical personnel, under Operations Manager for North Zone, Eng. Wendy Romaña, Head of Operations for Cable Color.

The installation included mounting and pointing the 2.4 meter diameter antennas and performing validation capacity testing.

According to Eng. Romaña, “the link performance is meeting our expectations and we are looking forward to further expand the scope of services to our customers”.
