Transcend 800 High Capacity Microwave Radio (T800)

Features

• Advanced Radio and Digital Signal Processing Up to 380 Mbps over-the-air throughput for single IDU configurations and Multi-Gigabit over-the-air throughput for aggregated traffic.
• True Adaptive Coding and Modulation (True ACM) Transcend 800 automatically adjusts coding and modulation rates, without any payload error, to changing environmental conditions. This allows for sustained availability at overall higher capacity.
• High speed IP traffic – Gigabit Routing and Switching Transcend 800 includes a full featured built-in Layer 2 Gigabit Switch and Layer 3 Gigabit router. High Speed IP traffic is scalable up to Gbps with low latency.
• Broadcast capabilities built-in Transcend 800 carries MPEG data carried directly from broadcast equipment through integrated DVB-ASI interfaces over the microwave link. The DVB-ASI interfaces support standard definition, high definition, and Digital 3D broadcast applications
• Nodal Traffic Grooming Flexible support of IP, TDM, DVB-ASI, and mixed traffic with prioritization via quality and cost of service.

Overview

The Transcend™ 800 with integrated Layer 2 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet switch, full featured Layer 3 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet router and optional support for up to 2 x STM-1/OC-3, 3 x DS3, 84 x E1/T1s, and 8 x DVB-ASI is the ideal carrier grade IP, TDM, and Broadcast microwave radio. Transcend™ 800 is the low cost high capacity, high performance, and flexible solution to demanding transmission, telecom, and broadcast applications including backhauling 3G/4G traffic and Wireless Broadband Networks such as LTE, HSPA+, WiMAX, Metro WiFi, UMTS TDD, and private communication networks carrying data, voice, and HD video.

Transcend™ 800, Advantech Wireless’ second generation microwave system offering True Adaptive Coding and Modulation^TM, dynamically and seamlessly adapts coding and modulation to path propagation conditions. The result is the Lowest Total Cost of Ownership; higher availability, smaller antennas, and longer hop distances.

Transcend™ 800 can be flexibly configured as a narrow band or wide band IP, TDM, or mixed IP/TDM transport stream radio. Modulation and data throughput are programmable from QPSK to 256 QAM or up to 380 Mbps for a single carrier. Operators can provision traffic capacity based on priority or dynamically change it to provide maximum throughput. Provisioning can be based on CoS priorities or QoS for VoIP traffic and is fully compatible with triple play to combine voice (Abis or VoIP) with GPRS and video services.

Traffic grooming, cross connection, expansion and redundancy is supported through the integration of a front plane high speed serial interface. Transcend™ 800 supports a complete set of diversity and protection interfaces including full hot standby, frequency diversity, space diversity, and polarization diversity. The inherent connectivity and flexibility of Transcend™ 800 supports multiple network technologies including Ring, Mesh, Star, and Tree networks.

The Transcend™ 800 includes a secure Embedded Element Manager (Web interface, Telnet and SSH) built upon open standards. Advantech Microwave’s optional NetWay Manager is a complete network management suite compatible with all Advantech Wireless’ point-to-point microwave radios.
