Where
Mobile World Congress, courtyard pavilion #CY08, Fira de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain
Aviat Networks Future of Backhaul Showcase
Located inside its pavilion, Aviat Network will present its vision for the future of backhaul networks, focusing on the key challenges faced by mobile service providers around the world:
o 4G/LTE Backhaul--A Dose of Reality. The requirements for 4G/LTE backhaul
capacity are being overhyped, leading to operators wasting potentially
billions of dollars by running fiber to cell sites. Understand how
microwave exceeds the true backhaul capacity needs of 4G/LTE with high
reliability--and much more cost effectively.
o Simplifying Mobile Backhaul Evolution. The evolution of mobile network
infrastructure to all-IP is potentially risky and complex, giving
operators many confusing options. Learn how Aviat Networks is developing
solutions that will help simplify and lower the cost of this evolution.
o Small Cell Backhaul--Challenges and Opportunities. There is a growing
consensus in the industry that operators will need to deploy a new
"underlay" network of small, micro-base stations to provide the needed
capacity and coverage for 4G. Find out how microwave is uniquely
positioned to provide the backhaul for this new class of base stations.
Product Showcase
o Aviat WTM 3000. A fully functional Carrier Ethernet transport node in a
true zero-footprint package, the WTM 3000 for the first time includes
advanced radio, modem and Ethernet networking functions all in a compact
outdoor unit, unlike other "all-outdoor" packet radios that require an
indoor unit or a separate switch/router to provide important networking
advanced radio features.
o Eclipse IDU GE3. An ultra-compact indoor unit (IDU) that combines the
very latest Carrier Ethernet networking and advanced radio features for
hybrid TDM/Ethernet or all-Ethernet/IP wireless transmission. The
Eclipse IDU GE3 enables the deployment of cost-effective wireless
tail-end cell-site connections and standalone point-to-point links.
o Eclipse DAC GE3. A new plug-in interface module for the Eclipse Packet
Node platform, the DAC GE3 provides the most advanced Carrier Ethernet
switch subsystem available in microwave backhaul today. Featuring higher
capacity and an impressive breadth of new capabilities, this
third-generation design sets a new benchmark for resilient wireless
access and aggregation networks.
Aviat Networks will also host a cocktail and tapas event on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. in courtyard pavilion #CY08. Customers and other friends of the company are invited. Please contact your representative if interested in attending.
