Retain Stable Performance
With EnJet ™ you can keep the total throughout consistently high while even when the number of wireless stations increase in your outdoor network department
Steady, Uninterrupted Streaming
EnJet provides steady maximum throughput over long distances. Ideal for Video & Voice transmission for strong, uninterrupted steaming with low latency.
Prioritize Your Important Data
Achieve the speed your network needs for its most critical applications. Voice transmissions are latency-intensive and slotted at a higher priority than video recordings. Both receive higher priority than HTML pages.
