y Full redundancy support
Optimized for mobile backhaul – all-IP and TDM-to-IP migration

FibeAir IP-10 – Benefits
y Advanced Adaptive Coding & Modulation (ACM) for best spectrum utilization
y Native2 allows for optimal hybrid TDM/IP as well as "all-IP“
y Highly integrated design
y Simplifies network design and maintenance - reducing Capex and Opex
y improves over-all network availability/reliability - enabling support of services
with stringent SLA
y Strong economic value with pay-as-you-grow concept to reduce
network costs
y Widest capacity range (10-1000 Mbps) to deliver all capacity needs
y Optimize each network node for today’s
today s deployments
y Future capacity growth and additional functionality enabled with upgrade
licenses using the same HW!
FibeAir IP-10 offers risk-free mobile backhaul migration with the highest
possible capacities at the lowest overall cost

y Highest throughput - Optimal utilization of radio link bandwidth
y Lowest latency - <0.15msecs@400Mbps. Vital for VoIP & delay-sensitive applications
y Optimal radio link capacity utilization – No “legacy TDM” granularity constraints

IP-10 Enhanced ACM Support
y 8 modulation/coding working points (~3db system gain for each point change)
y Hit-less and Error-less modulation/coding changes based on signal quality
y E1/T1 traffic has priority over Ethernet traffic
y Each E1/T1 service is assigned a priority - enables differentiated E1/T1 dropping
during severe link degradation
y Integrated QoS with intelligent congestion management - ensures high priority
Ethernet traffic is not affected during link fading
