The Microwave Transport Challenge

Network Operators require fiber-like carrier

Ethernet performance for first-mile and

backhaul transport to satisfy the increasing

demand placed on their networks.

The microwave transport solution must

address total cost of ownership to ensure

affordable Capital costs and optimized

Operating costs (including spectrum fees,

tower leasing and maintenance costs).

The Janus Solution

Janus AirDuplexTM is an Ultra High Capacity

microwave radio providing multi-Gigabit

throughput capacity in a single radio unit.

Janus reduces Capex and Opex costs with

high spectral efficiency and software

definability giving downstream cost savings in

fees, maintenance and upgrade costs.

Ultra High Capacity Backhaul Applications

! Solution for Operators requiring Gigabit

Ethernet transport who have spectrum

investments in the traditional microwave

frequency bands below 42 GHz which are

limited to 28 or 56 MHz channelization.

! Longer-range transport links at higher

Ethernet throughputs when compared to

industry alternatives and millimeter wave

options.

Key Differentiators

! Air-DuplexTM technology enables Gigabit

Ethernet throughputs with high spectral

efficiency in a single Quad core ODU.

! High Ethernet throughput performance

with low latency without using data

compression techniques.

Product Highlights

! Data Throughput up to 1.5 Gbps Full

Duplex in a 56 MHz Co-channel Dual

Polarized (CCDP) channel allocation (go +

return frequency pair for FDD).

! High Spectral Efficiency of 26 bps per Hz

with CCDP channel allocation.

! Network Management features include

configuration from embedded GUI

interface and SNMP v3 network

management.

! IP Traffic Details:

o Carrier Ethernet CE 2.0 with MPLS-TP

support

o SyncE / IEEE 1588 support (Roadmap)

! All Outdoor construction for optimum site
