Harris Stratex Networks ( News - Alert), an independent supplier of turnkey wireless transmission solutions, is set to introduce its newest digital microwave radio, the TRuepoint 6400. The TRuepoint 6400 provides the highest transmission power and system gain performance in its class.
Designed for all-indoor configurations for backhaul and trunking of mobile, public safety, utility and local/state government networks, it supports flexible, software-selectable transport of DS1, DS3, OC- 3/SONET and native Ethernet data, with a maximum of 180 Mbps per radio channel. Radio frequency coverage includes 6 GHz, 7/8 GHz, 10 GHz and 11 GHz FCC ( News - Alert) and NTIA frequency bands, as well as the 5.8 GHz UNII unlicensed band.
In addition, Harris Stratex ( News - Alert) has plans to take part in the Mobile Backhaul Interoperability Test and Showcase at CTIA Wireless 2008 in Las Vegas. Harris Stratex will demonstrate the ability of the Eclipse Carrier Ethernet over Wireless solution to deliver the functionality, performance and resilience required for tomorrow's next- generation backhaul requirements by operating seamlessly within an MPLS , TMPLS and PBBTE network environment during the showcase.
Eclipse supports side-by-side native transport of both TDM and Carrier Ethernet over the same link, an essential capability for operators seeking a smooth, cost-effective migration path to next-generation packet-based networking with broadband service offerings. The Eclipse platform's Liquid Bandwidth capability allows available capacity to be allocated to either voice or data traffic through software control.
