Additional Features:
Land cover information is now available worldwide. The resolution of the terrain and land cover information may vary by locations. Check the availability in your area here.

The previous version (1.8.1.0) of the tool allowed users to estimate Point-To-Point wireless links for FREE and compare products from eight different vendors.

Version 1.8.2.0 is adding our ninth vendor, Ubiquiti with its Power Bridge and NANO Bridge platforms in the 900MHz, 2.4, 3.5, 3.65, 5.4 and 5.8GHz bands.

The Redline communications' RDL-5000 supporting 6-38GHz was loaded as well in this version and is now available.

"Adding seamless global land cover information to the estimation process had its challenges and is an important step which will improve the accuracy of users' estimations and would save them time and money" said Rafi Cohen of AlphiMAX.

"AlphiMAX' Point to Point Estimator is just a perfect tool. Making high resolution terrain available to us, removed a lot of doubt during the pre planning process, saving us time and money." Said Mr. Urbanek Manuel, Funknetz' CEO. "Automatically getting the land cover information as part of the path analysis without the need to invest the time and money involved in buying and formatting such data is a tremendous help. More over the ability given to Express users to click on the path profile and synchronize it to a three dimensional map accelerates the analysis process of obstructions and gives us easy ways to go around them, and is definitely worth the monthly payment. Setting up a Paypal account and subscribing to a hassle free, automatic payment service was easier than I thought since Paypal accepts all payment methods."

The previous version (1.7) of the tool allowed users to estimate Point-To-Point wireless links for FREE and compare products from seven different vendors: Alvarion, Axxcelera, Ceragon, DragonWave, Huber Suhner, Motorola and Trango.

Version 1.8.1.0 is adding our eighth vendor, Redline Communications with its RDL 2000 platform in the 5GHz band. "We chose to standardize on AlphiMAX web service as the way to support all our customers and encourage new customers to virtually test our RDL 2000." Said Duval Yeager, Director of product marketing at Redline Communications.
"The RDL-2000 high-throughput carrier grade broadband radio solves middle-mile challenges by providing cost-effective, reliable point-to-point (PTP) connections in the most challenging conditions. The RDL-2000's high throughput and low latency helps telecom service providers deploy next generation 3G and 4G / LTE networks."

The SL60-41 from Huber Suhner has been launched exclusively through AlphiMAX and will be the first product to provide users with 2Gbps capacity for links covering up to 800m or 2600ft. The SL60 is operating in the 60GHz band and has the following physical characteristics:
Dimensions: 182 x 182 x 68 mm, (7.2“ x 7.2“ x 2.7“); Weight: 2.5 kg (5.5 lb).

Additional Features:
For the first time, a tool that finally provides you with high level of confidence for your line of sight verification. The Advanced package is the first of its kind to allow on demand land cover information to be included in your line of site estimation. The land cover and high resolution terrain features are included in the "Greater Accuracy" category which is enabled for Advanced package sunscribed users.

So what does it look like and what are the benefits? The pictures below tell the story better than our words.

Estimation with 90m terrain resolution and no Land Cover shows link is possible.

Estimation with 10m terrain resolution and 30m Land Cover resolution reveals all information including blocked Fresnel zone and line of sight, potential reflections from hidden lake.

Additional Products:

Version 1.7 is adding our seventh vendor, Huber Suhner, and adds products in the 2.5, 5.9, 13GHz, 26GHz, 28GHz, 32GHz, 38GHz and 60GHz bands. It also adds access to Alvarion’s BreezeNET B300 and Motorola PTP 300, 400, 500, 800 and their lite versions.

Additional Features:

Define required availability, additional fade margin, required capacity and more. Learn more in the getting started.
Search your location by address and assign it to the relevant site.
Integrated three dimensional (3D) map now with Street View, all making it easier to see the terrain your link is going through.

Pre-loaded with products' information, there is no need to look for any data and plug it into complicated tools and formulas, we do that for you. It is now possible to easily calculate the availability of products in the 2.4GHz to 23GHz bands while taking into account the required parameters.

What's new:

Users using the latest Google Earth release, version 6.0 will be able to see trees in three dimensions along the path of their link anywhere such data is available. Select the "map" tab and click on the 3D button (just like the one here on the right) to get access to such view. After your estimation return to the "map" tab to be able to download a KMZ file.
