The EdgePoint features FibreProtect to significantly reduce electrostatic discharge (ESD) failures and electromagnetic interference (EMI), greatly improve data signal integrity, and consolidate the wired data backhaul to a single fiber cable run for long-distance connectivity. With an all-in-one design, a single, compact controller efficiently eliminates clutter, expensive cabinets, extraneous installations, and excessive maintenance. The EP-R6 has a robust design with a case that can withstand outdoor conditions, including wind, rain and snow. The included cable sleeve protects the cables and cable opening. If you prefer, you can swap it out for your own conduit.
