4. What is a Licensed PTP Link?
4
“A Licensed PTP link is a communications system that uses a beam of radio waves in a
designated frequency to transmit voice, date & video between two fixed locations ”
• Licensed links are regulated by Ofcom to ensure there is no Interference
• PTP Links:-
• Microwave Radio 6GHz – 38GHz
• Channels sizes available in the U.K.:-
• 3.5MHz, 7MHz, 14MHz, 28MHz, 40MHz & 56MHz Channels
• Ofcom Fee ranges from £ 250 - £ 2k per year
• Distances from 70m to 70Km+
• All Licensed Links require LoS
• All capacities are Full Duplex
• Antenna Size 30cm, 60cm, 90cm, 1.2m & 1.8m
• Links can be 1+0, 1+1, 2+0 or 2+2 configuration
• Millimeter Wave Radio – 70GHz-80GHz
• Channel sizes available in the U.K.:-
• 2GHz Spectrum
• Ofcom Fee £ 50 per year

5. Why Licensed Radio?
5
Reduce Opex – Leased Lines
Harwdware Costs – Significant Reduction
Adaptive Coded Modulation (ACM) – Hitless Transmission
Interference Issues / Higher capacities Required
