Optimizing Long-Distance Connectivity: Network Orbiter's Implementation of Mimosa B5x for High-Capacity IT Networks
Long-Haul Links
Network Orbiter is a leading system integration company specializing in IT and IT networking, with a strong focus on Access Networks. In a recent case study, Mimosa's B5x was chosen to bridge the digital divide and provide WiFi connectivity to a Network Orbiter customer.
One of Network Orbiter’s trusted customers required connectivity between two locations 86.6 kilometers apart. Given the terrain and environmental conditions, a Wireless UBR PTP solution seemed ideal, but the long distance posed a significant challenge. To address these challenges, they sought an industry-leading product capable of overcoming these obstacles.
After conducting research, it was determined that the Mimosa B5x would be suitable for this project, given its high capacity and long link distance capabilities. With careful planning using the Mimosa Link Design Tool (NDT), they selected the Mimosa B5x paired with a 32 dBi ALGcom outdoor antenna. Mimosa's backhaul solutions are renowned for their reliability and performance in challenging environments, making them a perfect fit for our requirements.
Using the Mimosa Link Design Tool (NDT), the Mimosa B5x paired with a 32 dBi ALGcom outdoor antenna was able to achieve a link distance of 86.6 km and they were successfully able to deliver up to 489 Mbps aggregate IP throughput with the signal strength of -66 dBm.

Results Using Mimosa's B5x
When terrain and weather pose challenges and fiber is not an option, fixed wireless access offers a cost-effective and highly efficient solution. For this particular customer, the difficult terrain and inclement weather created a challenging scenario that only a solution like Mimosa could effectively address. After thorough research, the Mimosa B5x was selected for its high capacity and long link distance capabilities. The implementation achieved a link distance of 86.6 km, successfully delivering up to 489 Mbps aggregate IP throughput with a signal strength of -69 dBm as shown below.
Bottom Line with Mimosa's B5x Backhaul Radio
The customer successfully achieved the required link despite extreme terrain and weather conditions, resulting in a high-capacity, reliable, and low-latency solution tailored to their needs.
The Mimosa B5x is one of the industry's fastest unlicensed point-to-point (PTP) backhaul solutions, ideal for short to long-range relay and tower links, custom-engineered collocation, and licensed 4.9 - 6.425 GHz spectrum. Its rugged design and IP67 rating make it perfect for challenging environments.
A key differentiator for the Mimosa B5x is its compatibility with X-series twist-on antennas, including 12 dBi horn, 16 dBi horn, 20 dBi dish, 25 dBi dish, and 30 dBi dish options. This versatility allows for flexible and easy adjustments to meet the demands of an ever-expanding and evolving network.
Fast. Flexible. Future-Ready Wireless.
