Optimized for next generation LTE backhaul networks and metro area applications including WiMAX, Wi-Fi® and IP backhaul
The ExtendAir platform breaks new ground in licensed microwave backhaul for all last mile applications, offering network designers a highly reliable, secure alternative to fiber and leased lines at an unheard of cost per megabit-mile (CPMM). These zero-footprint Fast Ethernet and native TDM licensed microwave backhaul systems offer the lowest cost per megabit-mile (CPMM) of any radio system in their class, slashing deployment and sparing costs by 50% - 90%.
ExtendAir for Mobile Operators – a Lower Cost per Bit
- Instantly upgrades leased lines and legacy PDH systems to 100 Mbps full-duplex Ethernet plus 4xT1/E1
- Enables simultaneous backhaul to 2G and newer, co-located 3G and 4G/LTE nodes – without the need for separate transmission infrastructures
- Meets the most stringent latency requirements needed to support VoIP, video and Web 2.0
- Lowers deployment and sparing costs because systems are zero-footprint, compact and lightweight, and a single radio can be used to spare the entire band at either end of the link
- Paves the way for the inevitable transition to microcells and picocells at the network edge, as cell sites are split to accommodate growing data demand, and for the need to provide additional backhaul capacity in hot spots within the metro network
ExtendAir for WISPs – a Lower Cost to Compete
- Provides base station backhaul and guaranteed last mile or “loop” connections to business customers
- “Tower-friendly” – enables faster time-to-market and lower installation costs
- Greatly reduces lead times and sparing costs because a single radio can spare an entire band at both ends of the link
- Enables service providers to support up to three different customers in the same building at three different service levels
For Enterprise and Government – a Lower Cost to Migrate
- Concurrently supports legacy TDM voice systems and roll out of new IP-based applications
- Enables transparent integration within existing WLAN and WAN network architectures
- Supports any TDM to IP migration timeline – pay-as-you-grow capability lowers capital costs and operating expenses
Now Exalt not only offers the industry’s broadest portfolio of zero-footprint high-performance microwave radio systems, but also brings true and affordable carrier-class performance, reliability and security to every link in the backhaul network.
