FullMaxiscapableofoperatinginanyfrequencybandbetween40MHzand958MHz1and
inanychannelsizebetween200KHzand5MHz2.
TheFullMaxsystemofferstheprivatesystemoperatorwideareacoveragebyleveraging
thefollowing:
■ HightransmitpowerfromboththeBaseStationandSubscriberStations
■ Exceptionalreceiversensitivity
■ Superiorpropagationduetotheoperationinnarrowernon‐standardWiMaxchannel

TheFullMaxsystemoffersexcellentfrequencyutilizationthroughthefollowingcapabilities:
■ AdaptiveModulationandCodinginboththedownlinkanduplink
■ Optimizationofthedownlinkanduplinkratiofortheuser’smainapplications.For

1 Currently, FullMax has FCC certification to operate in United States NPCS band (FCC Part 24), in the 700
MHz guard band (FCC Part 27) in the AMTS band (FCC Part 80) and in the IVDS band (FCC Part 95). FCC
certification for other bands will be acquired upon demand.
2 FullMax has been fully tested to operate in 500 KHz wide channel, 700 KHz wide channel and 1 MHz wide
channels. Other channel sizes should be verified with Full Spectrum engineering support before implementation
to guarantee proper network configuration.

This event means a base station device on the network is down.
If such an event is outstanding in the system, all FullMax NMS clients will show a flashing critical

Major
A subscriber's fixed station is down or in danger of going down.
Minor
A part of a device (a service, and interface, a fan, etc.) has stopped functioning.
Warning
An event has occurred that may require action. This severity can also be used to indicate a
condition that should be noted (logged) but does not require direct action.
