Cambium Networks PTP 650L: Quickly Connect and Satisfy Enterprise Customers

With mobile data traffic nearly doubling each year, access networks are being pushed past their capacity limits.  Network operators are embracing outdoor small cell architectures to speed additional capacity where it’s needed and extend coverage delivered by 3G and 4G LTE networks—but a host of deployment challenges arise.

Along with physical security and managing interference, critical issues that must be addressed include:

• Ensuring scalable provisioning
• Navigating municipal planning regulations
• Providing backhaul to small cells in challenging locations

Wireless backhaul offers a flexible, affordable solution that addresses these three key issues. To maximize the benefits, Cambium Networks’ Point-to-Point (PTP) 650 series provides powerful, cost-effective wireless backhaul that can be deployed quickly virtually anywhere.

Within the series, the compact PTP 650L uses sub-6 GHz, non-line-of-sight (NLOS) connectivity with up to 100 Mbps capacity. The PTP 650L also delivers high spectral efficiency and reliability, even in congested areas.

Ideal for enterprise access and video surveillance, the solution enables cost-effective expansion for service provider, public safety, utility, and government deployments. Leveraging unique advantages of the PTP 650 platform, the PTP 650L includes Dynamic Spectrum Optimization™ (DSO) providing in-band, online spectrum analysis and optimization.

Highlights of the 650L solution include:  

• Frequency availability: 4.9 GHz to 6.05 GHz
• High capacity: Up to 100 Mbps,upgradeable to 300 Mbps
• Low latency: 1 - 3 ms
• Flexible channel width: 5 and 10 MHz, upgradable to 30 MHz
• Modulation:  256 QAM
• Future-ready: Software upgrade extends capacity to 300 Mbps in a 30 MHz channel
