System Overview
Ceragon’s FibeAir™ product family of broadband wireless systems supports multiple capacities, frequencies, modulation schemes and configurations for various network requirements, using the same hardware and state-of-the-art technology. This innovative family of products presents an easy method of “on the fly” wireless network upgrades in accordance with network expansion requirements. The continuously expanding on-demand features of the FibeAir family are capable of leveraging operator and service provider investments and OPEX. Frequencies and Modulations - Ceragon’s FibeAir family supports the complete range of frequencies of 6 to 38 GHz and software configurable modulation schemes of 16, 32, 64, 128 and 256 QAM with versatile 28-56 MHz bandwidths.
Capacities - Ceragon’s radios are upgradeable for capacities of 100 to 622 Mbps, using the same 1U IDU, supporting 1+0, 2+0, 4+0 (with optional XPIC, Cross Polarization Interference Canceller mechanism), 2+0 East-West, 1+1/2+2 HSB, and 1+1 HSB with space or frequency diversity mode. Point-to-point, ring, star, and cascaded chain topologies are all supported. Topologies and Configurations - Each indoor unit (IDU) can host up to two carriers, each delivering 100, 112, 116, 155 or 311 Mbps, optimizing the solution for every network topology and configuration. The two independent, hot-swappable carriers can be used for protection, diversity or double capacity. High spectral efficiency is ensured by choosing the same frequency for double the capacity, due to the usage of both carriers for vertical and horizontal polarizations, implemented by a built-in XPIC mechanism. East-West configurations for ring and cascaded topologies are also possible using the same method, whereby one carrier is directed to the east and the other to the west, reducing equipment and resource requirements in each node, which, in turn, increases network efficiency. FibeAir™ can seamlessly integrate into any SDH/SONET, IP and ATM network, while supporting a wide variety of IP + TDM interfaces, including nxE1/T1, nxE3/DS3, nxSTM-1/OC-3, STM-4/OC-12, nxFE, and GigE. This enables network designers to meet growing market needs, including integration of current and next generation technologies, using the same radio equipment. Combining spectral efficiency, hardware efficiency, modularity, flexibility and upgradeability in a single, compact, and cost-effective 1U system, the FibeAir family is a breakthrough in the wireless point-to-point market.
Applications
The FibeAir family enables rapid and cost-effective high-capacity connectivity for carriers, both in the cellular and fixed operator markets, for private networks and enterprises. Mobile Cellular Infrastructure – Ceragon’s FibeAir product family is an optimal solution for mobile cellular networks, which require higher capacity due to an increase in subscribers, cell sites and data rich applications. Ceragon’s built-in ADM reduces the cost and complexity of SDH ring topologies and enables more efficient network expansion. As an intelligent network element, FibeAir offers a smooth migration path from existing PDH to SDH/SONET network functionality and to next generation ATM and IP. Fixed Networks – To bridge the broadband access gap between end-user demands and the core network infrastructure, Ceragon’s FibeAir product family offers carriers high-capacity wireless metropolitan ring and PTP solutions in the core network. Ceragon’s FibeAir delivers Internet access and integrated high-speed data, video and voice traffic in a cost-effective manner. Private Networks and Enterprises – The modular FibeAir is ideal for private networks, such as educational and financial institutions, utility companies, government and corporate campuses, providing carrier-class voice ATM, IP private networks and IP + TDM direct connections.
Management Systems
Ceragon provides state-of-the-art management based on SNMP. Our management applications are written in Java code, and enable management functions at both the element and network levels. The applications run on Windows 98/2000/XP/NT, UNIX, and Sun Solaris. CeraView® is Ceragon’s SNMP-based EMS (Element Management System) that enables the operator to perform element configuration, RF and SDH performance monitoring, remote diagnostics, alarm reports and more. CeraView integrates with different NMS (Network Management System) platforms, such as HP OpenView® and SNMPc, to provide more comprehensive system management. PolyView™, Ceragon's NMS (Network Management System), can be used to update/monitor network topology status, provide statistical/inventory reports, define end-to-end traffic trails, download software, and configure elements in the network. In addition, it can integrate with other NMS platforms, such as HP OpenView, to provide more comprehensive network management.
