Cambium Networks PTP 650S: Cost-effectively Scale HetNets with Sub-6 GHz Backhaul
Traffic on mobile networks continues to grow exponentially year after year as “anytime, anywhere” voice, streaming video, and other real-time applications become part of the norm. To accommodate this growth, network operators are bolstering network access with heterogeneous networks—“HetNets”—that use small cell devices to cost-effectively add bandwidth and extend coverage to new areas.
HetNets deliver powerful benefits in both “hotspots” and “not spots,” densely populated cities and rural areas. But the new technologies introduce complex challenges, such as ensuring reliable, cost-effective backhaul.
Cambium Networks’ Point-to-Point (PTP) 650S Small Cell backhaul solution delivers up to 450 Mbps aggregate throughput in a small form factor. The PTP 650S supports both 3G and 4G/LTE network timing for secure, reliable growth into the future. Highlights of the 650S solution include:
- Flexible capacity with Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) support delivered by sub-6 GHz spectrum featuring 2x2 MIMO OFDM, Fast Adaptive Modulation (AMOD), Dynamic Spectrum Optimization (DSO) and high spectral efficiency.
- Flexible mounting options promote easy deployment in a compact form factor with low power consumption. PTP 650S simplifies installation in both rural and urban areas and features built in alignment tools and management interfaces promoting cost-efficient installation and monitoring.
- Future-ready solution optimizerange d for both 3G and 4G networks: The PTP 650S meets requirements for performance, timing (IEEE 1588v2 and Synchronous Ethernet), reliability and security in the latest generation of mobile networks. Mobile network operators are assured of being to support future network expansion as traffic and demand continue to rise.
Has the same great features of the PTP 650 but with a smaller form factor and a shorter ~1.2miles.
