EVOLUTION SERIES – Long Haul

Long Haul Common Platform Radio: 5 - 11 GHz

Data-rate: n x 155 - n x 622 Mb/s

Nera’s new long haul high capacity microwave radio is based on a

common platform concept. The building blocks are common to the
highly scalable split-mount Evolution Series radio for PDH, SDH/SONET
or Ethernet transport networks. A variety of configuration options
from single channel terminals to multi-channel, high density system,
including dual direction terminals. One platform for all needs simplifies
logistics and reduces life cycle cost dramatically.
Evolution Series - Long Haul
Common Platform Radio - 5 to 11 GHz

The EVOLUTION SERIES Long Haul microwave radio system is part of the software defined microwave
radio family, offering a unique flexibility and scalability. The long haul configuration is available as
both all indoor installations as well and a split-mount installation with the radio units mounted
at the antenna. The long haul configuration is available in the frequency bands 5 - 11 GHz, with
data-rate of n x 155 Mb/s.

FEATURES
The software defined all digital modem is multi-rate, multi modulation with dual Forward Error
Correction. The user simply selects frequency and bandwidth and the embedded software selects
the appropriate modulation scheme and other modem settings. This way the same IFU unit can
be used in all configurations and all applications, minimizing the need for spare parts and simplifying
the logistics. The demodulator contains an optional XPIC-function enabling multi-channel system
with frequency re-use, i.e. the same RF channel is used for both antenna polarizations (V/H).

High Density with up to 10 RF channels per rack, including support for frequency re-use and adjacent
channel operation, making it the most spectrum efficient system in the market. .
IFU UNIT
The Interface Unit (IFU) contains baseband functions and plug-in interface module(s) for both TDM
and Ethernet services in Next Generation Networks. The baseband part includes SDH/SONET
overhead processing and the optional Add/Drop Multiplexer / X-Connect function. A wide range
of user interfaces such as n x E1/DS1, 3 x E3/DS3, STM-1/OC-3, STM-4/OC-12 and Fast Ethernet/Gigabit
Ethernet are available as plug-in units. The IFU is scalable with the system configurations and
handles non-protected and protected terminal configurations.

Advanced standardized Ethernet transport over SDH/SONET using GFP, VCAT and LCAS is providing flexible
and scalable Ethernet capacity up to 600Mb/s per terminal. Per-port VLAN tagging and QoS based on
802.1p/q or IP-ToS is user selectable. Selectable mix of Ethernet and STM-1/OC-3. .

TRANCEIVER UNIT
The Transceiver units (TRX) are frequency agile and covers a complete frequency band, frequency setting is configured locally
or remotely through the IFU-web-interface. Nera's patented technology includes adaptive predistortion and direct modulation
with dynamic power control, which significantly reduces power consumption and heat generated from the equipment.

MANAGEMENT
Easily managed by a standard web-browser, Nera's NetMaster or a general SNMP manager.
