Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The RF-7800W-OU440 Broadband Ethernet Radio (BER) is designed for High Capacity Line of Sight (HCLOS) networks with broadband Ethernet requirements. The radio can be mounted on a mast for quick deployment or on a tower system designed for long haul back bone systems. The BER operates in the 4.4 to 5.0 GHz frequency band. The BER is an ideal wireless networking solution for public safety, first responders, training, and simulation networks, and long haul/short haul battlefield communications. The RF-7800W operates in Point-to-Point (PTP) and Point to Multipoint (PMP) in the same platform.
