2 x FE (Electrical) on main board is the default. By software key, this can be changed
into 4 x GbE (10/100/1000Base-T)
2xSFP(GbE) can be set either Optically or Electrically . Same SFP type is required.
LCT/NMS interface has NE 1 and NE2 . These interfaces are to be used
for IDU-IDU back-to-back stacking.
AUX interface can be used e.g. for taking in alarms of air-conditioners, doors etc.
Sync. ETH Clock option module is mounted onto the main board for Sync ETH or
channelized STM-1.

Available AMR operation mode
AMR is a technology to
improve robustness mainly in
the packet transmission
environment by utilizing
thermal threshold difference
between modulation hierarchy
such as QPSK and 256 QAM.
On the fine day, the operator
can get the 220Mbps
throughput over the link which
is designed for 53Mbps
throughput as illustrated in the
figure.
iPASOLINK support hitless
modulation switchover from
256QAM to QPSK as shown
in table.

Microwave links are designed to carry traffic at 99.999% availability under all path conditions with a approx. 30 dB
fade margin. With higher modulation for the same link 99.98% availability can be achieved with reduced fade margin
for higher throughput.

iPASOLINKXPIC(Cross Polarization Interference Canceller)
iPASOLINK can double its transmission capacity up to 880Mbps in 56MHz
bandwidth by adopting NECs state of the art XPIC technology.
The additional required components for XPIC are;
Dual polarized antenna,
Additional ODU,
Associated IF cable kit,
Soft-key upgrade in IDU.
(In case of iPASOLINK200, no cable connection is required at the front panel for XPIC )

Egress QoS function, previous stage of adaptive modulation supports per-class queuing
with strict priority and deficit round robin mechanism.
Each queue supports:
- maximum rate shaping and minimum rate guarantee
- weighted tail drop or WRED congestion avoidance mechanism work with colors,
colored by policing in the ingress stage.
Also, per-port shaping is supported co-work each queue as hierarchical shaping
