This video demonstrates setting up and testing Ingenius outdoor directional access points for point-to-point network connections between buildings 0:02-0:04.
Key Takeaways:
• The IP67 weather-sealed access points feature a 2x2 5 GHz solution with built-in 18 DBI panel antenna, capable of up to 2 gbit wireless speeds 0:35-0:56
• Testing showed initial speeds of 500-800 megabit, which improved to nearly 2 gbit after optimization at 0.25 miles distance 6:20-6:46
• After 3 weeks of continuous use, the connection proved remarkably stable with minimal jitter, demonstrating excellent quality of service 12:36-13:14
• At approximately $1,400, these units are expensive but designed for wireless ISPs building mesh networks rather than simple two-building connections 14:00-14:09
The access points offer enterprise-grade reliability for professional deployments despite their premium price point 16:28-16:34.

this is the new level one set thanks Steve we need to connect it to another building that is far away with very high speed okay it's not super far away you can kind of see the roof of that building from the roof of this building and my good friends and ingenius decided to hook me up with not one but two outdoor directional access points designed specifically for Network to network connections let's take a closer look [Music] inside each one of these boxes is an IP67 that means weather sealed outdoor access point it's a 2x2 5 GHz solution with a built-in 18 DBI panel antenna these will operate at up to 2 gbit wirelessly and it can be point to multi-point but basically I'm going to use it as a point topoint Network to connect this building to another building line of sight 5 GHz two 5 GHz ch…
