Point-to-point microwave radios provide
flexible, reliable solutions with fast network deployment and
low cost -- even in harsh environments.
Microwave radio technology is a natural
choice for the mobile backhaul. In fact, point-to-point microwave
radios provide flexible, reliable solutions with fast network
deployment and low cost - even in harsh environments.
Microwave radio offers an economical alternative
to leased circuits, with much higher availability (greater
than 99.999%). Plus, the ability to quickly move into commercial
operation means fast investment payback for operators and timely
support for new subscribers and services.
Alcatel - Lucent - the world leader in point-to-point
microwave radios - has a field-proven experience in deploying
and managing wireless transmission networks. Our global solution
of fixed point-to-point microwave radios, which is fully integrated
in the Alcatel - Lucent network management platform, offers full frequency
bands coverage, from 1.5 GHz up to 38 GHz. It also supports
a large variety of distances, as well as transmission capacities
from 1.5 Mbps to N x OC-3/STM-1.
For 2G and 2.5G backhaul, carriers can
use our low/medium-capacity PDH radios to interconnect base
transceiver stations (BTS), and our high-capacity SDH/SONET
radios to interconnect base station controllers (BSC).
For 3G backhaul, our low/medium-capacity
PDH radios interconnect UMTS mobile base stations (Nodes B),
while our high-apacity SDH radios interconnect UMTS radio node
controllers (RNC).
