RAy is a high-speed, industrial grade, point-to-point microwave link. Thanks to its exceptional resistance to interference, RAy provides the most stable links even on busy sites. A Full Outdoor Radio, it is ideal where high performance links with maximum reliability are required. Designed with attention to detail and implementing all relevant state-of-the-art concepts, this high quality microwave link provides excellent performance characteristics.
RAy has been on the market since 2009 and is used in thousands of installations from the poles to the equator.
RAy3, the 3rd generation of RAy, was released in 2019, setting a new standard and providing significant improvements in data speed and security features with up to 1 Gbps FDD available. Using RAy's option of asymmetric channels, the user can maximize spectrum availability making RAy3 a leading choice for license free bands.
