Overview

Applications

The TrangoLink GigaPlus split architecture microwave backhaul

system offers an industry- leading set of features in a compact halfrack unit form factor. With built-in hitless Adaptive Code Modulation
(ACM) and best-in-class system gain, smaller antennas can be used,
reducing overall CAPEX while improving link reliability. Support
for the entire microwave spectrum with a 3.5- 56 MHz channel sizes
enables deployment in the densest RF environments. In-band and
out-of-band management of link elements is provided via serial port
or 10/100BaseT through telnet/SSH, web interface or SNMP.

LTE / WiMAX / 3G / 4G Backhaul

Future-Proof Design

Industry-Leading System Gain

The GigaPlus future-proof design protects your microwave backhaul

investment. Remotely activated software keys enable the baseline
100+ Mbps Ethernet capacity to be increased or TDM Support added
as you need it. This scalability allows the network operator to support
up to 8 native T1/E1 circuits now and add packet-based capacity up to
375 Mbps as the network grows. The TDM capacity can be reclaimed
as legacy devices are phased out and the network migrates to all-IP 4G
architectures. The four GigE ports have individual controls for VLAN
tagging, traffic shaping and QOS, allowing greater control of network
performance.
