cnWave 60 GHz V5000 Distribution Node

The Cambium cnWave 60 GHz V5000 is a dual-sector distribution node built for WISPs, ISPs, and integrators deploying high-density gigabit wireless in the license-free 60 GHz band. Based on Terragraph technology, it aggregates traffic across two sectors with 280 degrees of coverage, letting operators blanket streets, campuses, and dense multi-dwelling areas without trenching fiber to every point. It solves the classic middle-mile bottleneck by delivering fiber-like capacity where cable is impractical or too costly.

As the backbone of a cnWave network, a single V5000 can anchor a mesh of up to four other distribution nodes or serve up to 30 client nodes in a PtMP layout, with automatic beamforming and self-healing mesh routing. The full network is provisioned and monitored through cnMaestro (cloud or on-premises), so operators can onboard nodes, tune links, and watch performance from one dashboard. Its PoE-out port can also power a downstream client radio for compact tower or rooftop builds.
