o FCC L6, U6 and 7 GHz
o IC L6
• 11 GHz IRFU covers following band
o FCC 11 GHz
o IC 11 GHz
PTP800i support following different radio setups:
• IRFU 1+0
• IRFU 1+0, ready to upgrade to 1+1 Tx MHSB with Equal Splitter
• IRFU 1+0, ready to upgrade to 1+1 Tx MHSB with Unequal Splitter
• IRFU 1+1, Tx MHSB with Equal Splitter
• IRFU 1+1, Tx MHSB with Unequal Splitter
• IRFU 1+1, Tx MHSB with Rx Spatial Diversity
• IRFU 2+0
• IRFU Repeater (East/West)
3.2 Support of Switched Spatial Diversity
System Release PTP 800-05-00 introduces switched spatial diversity for ODU-A, ODU-B
and IRFU deployment. It is also compatible with both Fixed modulation and Adaptive
Modulation.
Spatial Diversity improves link availability by providing each end of the wireless link with
two observations of the signal which has been transmitted from the other end of the link. It
is particularly effective in combating multipath fading caused by atmospheric effects such as
scintillation and ducting. Both these effects can occur to a significant degree in microwave
links. It also combats fading caused by reflections from water.
3.3 Support of QoS based on Network Layer Classification
System Release PTP 800-05-00 introduces QoS control where frame classification is based on
following network layer priority schemes:
• IPv4 DSCP
• IPv6 DSCP
• MPLS TC priority
3.4 Support of ASTRO® UEM and Wireless Manager
System Release PTP 800-05-00 is compatible with ASTRO® Unified Event Manager (UEM)
(starting with UEM release A7.9) for Fault Management integration, which complies with all
Information Assurance (IA) requirements required as part of UEM A7.9 system release. This
includes SNMPv3, HTTPS, Identity-based user accounts, Strong Password enforcement rules,
remote authentication user RADIUS-CHAP, and Syslog/local Logging.
System Release PTP 800-05-00 is compatible with Cambium Wireless Manager for all fault
management and configuration management.
