High Performance mmWave Modules Enable Multigigabit Links

Fully integrated IEEE802.11ad compliant module guarantees over-the-air performance, maintaining the high-integrity of mmWave RF performance

Optimised for use both as a standalone device and with a parabolic reflector, the PRM2141 IEEE802.11ad/ay module from Peraso Technologies Inc. is fully tested to an over-the-air antenna input/output specification, thus maintaining the high-integrity of mmWave RF performance. 

In a standalone configuration, the module supports a range of more than 500m. Additionally, the module supports beamforming and beam steering, thus allowing the adjustment of beam direction for optimal performance over long distances.

Key module features include:

  • Fully integrated 802.11ad/ay MAC, PHY, mmWave radio and antenna
  • 57 to 71GHz operation with support for 1.08 GHz channel centres
  • 16 GHz and 1.08 GHz channel bandwidth
  • 16-element integrated phased array antenna
  • Full 2D beam steering (+/-45 deg. in both azimuth and elevation)
  • Configurable beam tables optimised for use with both a parabolic reflector and standalone operation
  • 38 dBm EIRP with all 16-elements active
  • Automatic Rate Adaptation, Dynamic Beamforming, Automatic Calibrations
  • -87dBm receive sensitivity at 1 Gbps data rate (standalone operation)
  • 2 Gbps maximum data rate
  • USB 3.0 data and control interface
  • AES-128 encryption
  • Single 5V power supply input
  • 1PPS synchronization support
  • Compact 35mm x 50mm form factor

The PRM2141 can be used in a variety of applications including PtP and PtMP links for fixed wireless access networks, private mmWave networks, 5G base station backhaul and V2X communications.
