FibreAir IP-20 Microwave Platform – Long Haul

FibreAir IP-20 Platform

Microwave Vs Fibre is still a question in the back of designers minds. Each technology has its benefits and one of the key benefits of the The FibeAir IP-20 Platform is that it is a comprehensive wireless backhaul solution, designed to meet every wireless backhaul challenge. Within the business, challenges exist,  whether the challenge is the delivery of more network capacity, coping with the lack of microwave spectrum, reducing organisation spectrum costs, minimising the use of real estate or reducing costly energy expenses – the FibeAir IP-20 platform, with Ceragon’s unique multi-core technology, is set to help you achieve the highest value for you.

The FibeAir IP-20 Platform being a very flexible product family, provides a wide range of configurations and operates at every microwave and millimeter-wave band to match the requirements of diverse network scenarios. It allows the clients to select  all-outdoor, split-mount or an all-indoor configurations thus making it suitable for any deployment scenario.

Operations, Configuration and Management of the equipment  is performed via a Web based interface in the first instance. Combined with Ceragon’s network management platform, NetMaster, it simplifies the operations and provides a perfect platform for end-to-end, high-capacity wireless backhaul networks.

 

The FibeAir IP-20 is a superior and powerful platform that incorporates the industry’s most advanced radio technologies creating a winning robust wireless solution. Ceragon’s field-proven multi-core radio technology enables high capacity and high spectral efficiency microwave and millimeter-wave operations that allow the operators to use ¼ of the spectrum in order to achieve a given capacity.

What’s more, the link’s capacity can be doubled remotely, without additional hardware, and allows you to reduce antenna size thereby relieving tower load and reducing power consumption.

Built on Ceragon’s unique in-house microwave and millimeter-wave technologies, the FibeAir IP-20 Platform helps you resolve your current longhaul and shorthaul challenges, while delivering built-in hardware and software infrastructure that will cater for tomorrow’s network challenges.

By doing so, provides you the confidence of continuously delivering the capacity and the customer experience you need in order to keep and grow your customer base, increase revenues, and increase your operational efficiency.

IP-20LH

High-availability, multi-carrier trunk node

The FibeAir IP-20LH is an ultra-flexible, long-haul node that delivers multi- Gbps radio capacity to aggregation and backbone sites, over very long distances, ranging up to 200Km, and in extreme weather conditions. Its high modularity and flexibility allow it to support numerous radio carriers with a wide variety of line interfaces via pluggable modules (SFP) – making it the preferred node for your long-haul transport network.

At Ceragon, we understand just how much the resiliency of your long-haul connectivity means to you, so we have designed the FibeAir IP-20LH to support a No Single-Point-of-Failure architecture (No SPoF), ensuring your network is able to continuously support your business goals.

The FibeAir IP-20LH operates within the entire microwave spectrum, offering high spectral efficiency across licensed and license-exempt frequency bands (4-11GHz), as well as all high-speed data interfaces (10GE/1GE/FE) and a variety of TDM interfaces (E1/T1, STM-1/OC-3). Unique, layer 1 carrier bonding (multi-carrier Adaptive Bandwidth Control, MC – ABC), enables multi-carrier aggregation to a single logical link, carrying TDM and Ethernet traffic to enhance utilization and increase service availability.

Product Features

Equipped with an MEF 2.0 certified Carrier Ethernet engine, as well as an advanced TDM service processing engine, it allows you to deliver both IP and legacy TDM services. The product is offered with a basic security package. For a comprehensive set of security capabilities, please refer to the FibeAir IP-20 Assured Platform.
