Wireless Backhaul. Doing it Right:
Exploring Backhaul Topology Strategies

Thursday November 18, 2010 11:00am ET/ 8:00am PT

The demand for new high-speed mobile data services has caused network planners to re-evaluate backhaul capacity requirements and TDM-to-packet migration plans. Their planning processes must take complex network topology considerations into account.

This webinar will spotlight microwave-based backhauling topologies. Selecting the right topology for wireless backhaul networks is an especially complicated task.  We will take a close look at the advantages and disadvantages of tree and ring topologies paying special attention to cost considerations.  We will bring an actual example of the backhaul requirements of a large South American mobile provider and explain how the Ceragon FibeAir® IP-10 microwave backhauling platform provided an adaptable solution to a range of topological models.

What Attendees will learn:
  • How to evaluate and maximize backhaul topologies for mobile backhaul
  • How to re-evaluate TDM-to-packet backhaul migration plans
  • How to recapture bandwidth from existing infrastructure without additional CAPEX
Who should attend:
  • Network Architects
  • Network Planners
  • Transmission and Operation staff
