The difference between point to point and multi-point line configuration

When distance, obstacles or challenging terrain stand in your way the solution can often be wireless communication links. The team at Nulux has extensive experience in the design and implementation of wireless systems and infrastructure ranging from point to point / point to multipoint radio networks, tower construction/rigging and mesh networks. As wireless tech evolves and demand increases Nulux is committed to staying one step ahead.


Wireless Access Points (WiFi)

In many busy work environments the need for reliable wireless connections to our devices is becoming more and more critical. Be it in your office, warehouse or on the facility floor the use of mobile devices for documentation review, QA-QC and project planning is creating new efficiencies that save your business time and money.

What is a point to point network?

A Point to Point or P2P (Data link) provides a path from one fixed point to another. This will allow streamline communication links between two points. Local Point-to-point networks consist of two nodes connected by the internet & is usually delivered on a dedicated line.


What are the advantages a point to point network?

Some of the benefits your business get as a result of a P2P network include:

  • Increased Productivity– A point-to-point network ensures that all your staff have access to important centralized files no matter where they’re working.
  • Better Security– With broadband or SDSL your data is going trough a public network, this could increase the risk of it being intercepted. But with point to points its your own private networks, so you can transfer data securely with confidence. So, with this private circuit solution you do not need to worry about cyber-attacks.
  • Cost effectiveness — Usually when a point to point network is considered, a hard line connection is too complicated or costly to install due to distance or ground disturbance.


The difference between point to point and multi-point line configuration

People often get point to point and multipoint confused. The main difference is that point to points are between two points, whereas a multipoint is a connection between more than two points. In a multipoint connection, a single line is shared by multiple points.
