What the tool covers
Terrain & obstacle identification
Analyse the line-of-sight profile between your two sites. The tool fetches real elevation data and flags obstructions, Fresnel zone clearance issues, and other terrain-related risks before you deploy.
Radio & antenna comparison
Select from AINSORA's product catalogue and compare different radio and antenna combinations side by side. Instantly see how equipment choices affect your link budget and availability.
Capacity & parameter matching
Adjust channel bandwidth, modulation, and operating mode to match your throughput requirements. The calculator updates results in real time so you can tune the link to your exact needs.
Weather, distance & fading
Factor in rain zone, annual temperature, and link distance to evaluate rain attenuation, multipath fading, and predicted availability — all in one place.
