The RTN series IP microwave radio is an all “IP” designed radio system with key Ethernet features supporting the Mobile Broadband Backhaul industry. Products include the RTN 905, RTN 950 and RTN 980 which are based on a modular design that supports multiple microwave radio paths in one platform.

Features

LTE Ready, Helps Network Evolution Towards All-IP Backhaul

The RTN 900 leading TDM/Hybrid/Packet/Routing unified platform (4 modes in 1), supports smooth evolution, allows operators to choose the optimal technology (TDM, native Ethernet, MPLS-TP or L3VPN) and timing for the network with both Synchronous Ethernet and IEEE1588v2, the RTN 900 platform meets the phase and frequency synchronization for GSM/UMTS/LTE, and operators can flexibly choose the optimal synchronization solution at each network transformation stage, instead of GPS.

Ultra Broadband, Meeting Backhaul Capacity Expansion

The RTN 900 platform utilizes hitless adaptive modulation (AM) to adjust bandwidth and enhance spectrum usage. Compared with the fixed modulation mode, the AM technology can increase transmission bandwidth by up to 4 times and cut the spectrum expense.

Thanks to the XPIC and header compression technologies, the maximized capacity of one channel can reach 2Gbit/s, providing large bandwidth for mobile backhaul. In addition, the radio supports Link Aggregation (LAG)/Physical link aggregation (PLA) in N+ 0 configuration to maximize the capacity. The Gbit/s capacity is achieved through microwave radio in traditional RF bands, meeting the bandwidth requirement of LTE.

Networking Solution, Reducing CAPEX and OPEX

With built-in Ethernet processing platform and networking with multiple RF directions, the RTN 900 platform helps reduce CAPEX and OPEX, while enhancing operation efficiency. The RTN 900 platform also features unified NMS for microwave and optical equipments, including end-to-end service provisioning. Operators can enable end-to-end service management through a simple “point and click”. And advanced TP-Assist solution, support the operation and maintenance of operators metropolitan bearer networks as time division multiplexing (TDM) networks develop toward packet networks , care frees OAM of packet network.

We have worked with RTN905 and RTN950 devices and the performance and results have been success. Recently I have known the RTN380 and RTN310 products as outdoor equipment as optimal MAN solution.

We have bought the RTN905 for our MW backhaul, the software version is V100R005. Does any body knows how is the performance with PWE3 for tdm services? And if it?s possible to create some E1s in native tdm and some others in TDM over PW?
