DCMA-86: Industrial-grade, high-power 802.11a wifi mini-PCI module w/ESD and Surge Protection, AR5414A-B2B

DCMA-86 is the first and only industrial-grade, high-power 802.11a/5GHz wifi mini-PCI module with accurate power control in wide 2.5dBm ~ 25dBm range from –40°C ~ +80°C temperature range and integrated RF ESD/Surge protection circuit. Same EVM on both light and heavy loading enable DCMA-86 to maintain lower packet error to increase channel efficiency. Optional high rejection filter design of 5.15 ~ 5.85Ghz, 5.47 ~ 5.725GHz and 5.725 ~ 5.825GHz frequency increase alternate channel rejection capability for flexible and higher throughput network applications. With feature-rich and high flexibility design, DCMA-86 is specially designed for highest levels of performance and reliability applications in the harshest outdoor environment such as Mesh Networking, military, bridging, and infrastructure applications.
Leveraging RF expertise, continuous RD innovation, and highly successful CM9-GP/ CM10-HI series, DCMA-86 is the newest innovation with optional high rejection filter design to pursue highest throughput in crowded and harshest wireless environment.
