Create instant wireless hotzones - click here for the indoor version -

The Xnet Viper-M1 single-radio mesh node and the Xnet Viper-M2 dual-radio mesh nodes are plug-and-play, cost-effective standard solutions created for the EMEA market and designed for seamless working public- or private-access networks and event-based solutions. The single- or dual-radio Xnet Viper-M mesh node is the perfect match for providers deploying wireless networks. Easy installation and automatic configuration allows you to quickly bring Internet bandwidth to customers that were outside your network’s reach before. Because it is wireless and license-free, you can install a Xnet Viper-M mesh node when and where you need it, without right-of-way limitations, frequency licensing delays, or waiting for broadband Internet Service Providers. The Xnet Viper-M mesh node, which allows for a throughput of 20-40Mb/s depending on the distance, is ideally suited for service providers wanting to build a wireless hotzone or holiday location.

Xnet Viper-M mesh nodes explained
The Xnet Viper-M is a single-or dual-radio outdoor node, designed to be used for the EMEA market. One of the most prominently advertised features of the Xnet Viper-M mesh  node is the Hopling Mesh Protocol (HMP) used for meshing, the patented Hopling Discovery Protocol (HDP) used for the transport of information throughout the network and the patented Hopling Auto Mesh (HAM) technology used to automatically configure mesh networks.

Hopling Technologies' HopWARE Mesh Architecture (HMA) is a “full mesh network” solution as opposed to the tree structure topology as found in other vendor’s products. The full mesh topology means every node has connection to every other node in the network and is capable of sending traffic to that node. Apart from the enhanced software mesh router capabilities, each Xnet Viper-M mesh node also contains:

  • Configurable Layer 3 customer gateway, customers traffic can be controlled on a per session basis, with full control over up/down stream data rates and QoS parameters.

  • Call Home functionality, nodes can be deployed anywhere in the world and as long as they have a route to the Internet can be automatically configured from a central back-office.

  • Configurable Layer 2 firewall, preventing peer-to-peer traffic across the mesh network.

  • Multiple Gateway functionality, meaning the network space can be divided/shared between different network operators whereby every operator can have its own SSIDs, VLANs, Gateways, public and private IP addresses and back-office.

  • Automatic mesh configuration based on patented Hopling Discovery Protocol (HDP). One network operator can operate 65536 independent mesh networks in the same space.

  • HDP Visual (demo), on-board network monitoring tools that enables the network operator to get a visual view of its wireless network, HDP Visual also interfaces with a centralized back-office.

  • Remotely software upgradeable, taking over existing network operator’s settings after a software upgrade.

  • Remotely configurable through secure protocols.


Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) inserter
The Xnet Viper-M outdoor mesh node is powered using a single standard Cat 5 Ethernet cable for both power and data. Read more about the Power-over-Ethernet IEEE 802.3af capabilities of Hopling Technologies products

HDP explained

The patented Hopling Discovery Protocol (HDP) is a means for HDP-based products (currently Hopling Technologies only) to exchange information, thus enabling a device to configure itself for optimal communication with a neighboring HDP-based product. As an additional benefit, it allows mechanics and NOC technicians to get a view of the network – as the devices see it (which is not necessarily the network as its designer intended), as well as obtaining information about the availability or performance of a device. In order to maintain security, any data exchanged between nodes is encrypted.
