Software Overview:
is TP-LINKs next generation outdoor product series dedicated to long-range outdoor wireless networking solutions.

Advanced TP-LINK MAXtream TDMA Technology

As network scale increases, wireless competition and collisions among CPEs and base stations will be so enormous that the real
throughput of the network will drop, resulting in a serious impact on end-user experience, to mitigate these effects, TP-LINKs Pharos
series uses MAXtream TDMA Technology.
