    Abstract: A wireless network system that utilizes a multi-beam antenna to communicate with multiple remote stations. The system includes a hub and one or more remote stations. The hub is connected to a source which requires communication with the remote stations, in order to exchange information, such as data and/or voice transmissions. The hub includes a multi-beam antenna assembly, one or more hub radio transceivers, an Ethernet switch, and a controller. Each remote station includes a single directive antenna, a single remote station radio transceiver, an Ethernet switch, and a controller. The multi-beam antenna assembly includes a beam former and a multi-beam antenna. The multi-beam antenna at the hub provides the ability to communicate with more than one remote station at a time. Communication between the hub and remote stations is via a line of sight radio path using directive antenna beams associated with the multi-beam antenna and the remote station antenna.
