Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Navini Networks Ripwave Customer Premise
Equipment (CPE). It provides complete wireless broadband Internet access to residential and
small office/home office (SOHO) customers without any professional hardware installation
or an external antenna. The Ripwave CPE also provides “nomadic” service availability as a
computer is moved from room to room, location to location, or even city to city as long as
there is coverage in the area.
Ripwave CPE Models
The Ripwave CPE models vary by the operating band frequency range (2.4 GHz or 2.6 GHz)
of the CPE and by the port connection to the computer – Ethernet (E) or Universal Serial Bus
(USB).
Model Frequency Range Operating Band Port Connection
2400E 2.4 GHz - 2.473 GHz ISM Ethernet
2400U 2.4 GHz - 2.473 GHz ISM USB
2600E 2.596 GHz – 2.686 GHz MMDS/ITFS Ethernet
2600U 2.596 GHz – 2.686 GHz MMDS/ITFS USB
The models vary in appearance as shown in the pictures below:
2400E and 2400U 2600E and 2600U
