Cambium Networks Launches Sub-6 GHz PTP 650S For Small Cell Networks
- Compact form factor backhaul solution enables ease of use for street level small cell deployments -
ROLLING MEADOWS, Ill., Feb. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cambium Networks(TM), a global leading provider of wireless broadband solutions, today debuted PTP 650S, a new sub-6 GHz point-to-point (PTP) wireless backhaul solution tailored for small cell networks. With a smaller form factor, PTP 650S reliably and securely handles modern network complexities in any deployment environment while addressing municipal regulations regarding the look and size of small cells mounted on streetlights, utility poles and buildings.
According to Infonetics' Small Cell and LTE Backhaul Strategies survey, respondents expected that by 2016, in-building and outdoor small cells are expected to handle 25 percent of all mobile traffic.[1] PTP 650S excels in small cell deployments in urban hot spot environments with high data traffic, as well as lower small-cell density installations in rural communities. By addressing the unique backhaul needs of the growing small cell market, PTP 650S is a prime addition to Cambium Networks' field-proven, reliable PTP portfolio.
This new wireless backhaul solution features the company's signature technologies and design that make deployment and return on investment equally swift:
-- Flexible non-line-of-sight (NLOS) installations are made possible by 2x2
multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division
multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) and Dynamic Spectrum Optimization (DSO(TM))
technologies. With high spectral efficiency to combat RF and
self-interference; immediate support for 4.9, 5.2, 5.4 and 5.8 GHz
frequencies, and future support of 2.6 and 3.5 GHz; PTP 650S is exactly
what small cell network architects need to confidently deploy in NLOS
environments.
-- Quick, cost-effective implementation is supported by small form factor,
built-in alignment tools for easy installation, low power consumption
and flexible management interfaces that allow service providers to plan,
deploy, monitor and support their networks while keeping costs low. Once
online, fast Adaptive Modulation (AMOD) analyzes changing field
conditions, greatly increasing link reliability and efficiency.
-- Support for 3G and 4G/LTE network timing standards (IEEE 1588v2 and
Synchronous Ethernet) offers network operators the ability to meet the
performance and security requirements of their current service level
agreements, while also provisioning for the future expansion needs of
their small cell networks.
-- Scalable capacity is achieved with a simple software upgrade that
increases each PTP link's capacity as needed from 125 Mbps (lite) to 250
Mbps (mid) to 450 Mbps (full).
-- Reliability is assured with PTP 650S, as it is with all of Cambium
Networks' products. PTP 650s was rigorously tested in extreme physical
environments to ensure 99.999 percent availability. This equates to less
than five minutes of downtime annually. Additionally, PTP 650S
architecture optimizes available airside capacity, ensuring a high
packet-per-second (PPS) rate.
In addition to small cell backhaul, PTP 650s is suited for video surveillance; for use in private networks installed for hospital, academic and hospitality industry campuses; and for deployment anywhere short-range NLOS links are required.
"Performance, reliability, scalability and agility are the cornerstones of all of our platforms. In PTP 650S, we have given all of these qualities a boost with built-in technologies: dynamic spectrum optimization (DSO), IEEE 1588v2, Synchronous Ethernet, and dual stack IPv4 and IPv6 support to name a few," said Scott Imhoff, vice president of product management, Cambium Networks. "With small cell networks continuing to proliferate and require additional support, in addition to the need for flexible platforms to suit global connectivity spanning industries and applications, the timing for PTP 650S's release couldn't be better."
PTP 650S is now available on every continent through Cambium Networks' distributors.
PTP 650, PMP 450 and ePMP(TM) will all be exhibited at Cambium Networks' booth (Hall 7, Stand #7B41) at Mobile World Congress, February 24-27, 2014.
