Benefit
Available channel bandwidth carries user traffic not overhead thus conserving spectrum When T1/E1 ports are added, TDM throughput is traded bit-forbit for Ethernet throughput and vice versa, so rated throughput always equals user-available throughput Delivers low and consistent latency performance regardless of IP traffic behavior, including bursts
Zero latency introduction ensures the highest performance IP transport over the radio link Protects value of investment by supporting both current and future traffic allocation splits between TDM and Ethernet

Proprietary and Confidential
Benefit
Allows selection of desired channel bandwidth or modulation entirely via software, providing flexibility vs. hardware-based configuration options Provides in-band and out-of-band flexibility with multiple management options, including HTTP, CLI/Telnet, Serial Console, and SNMP v1,2c, and v3 Enables the same IDU SKU to be used for all 11, 18 and 23 GHz licensed bands with plug-and play ODU autoconfiguration, reducing CAPEX associated with sparing Reduces time associated with frequency transition through ODU-only swap Reduces training burden: all IDUs are the same, regardless of frequency
Configuration Simplicity
Channel bandwidth and modulation options enabled according to base model + upgrade key options
TDM channels enabled according upgrade key option and channel bandwidth/modulation selections

Support
Feature
Embedded manual
Benefit
Allows instant access to documentation within the radio. Installation and Management manual is always up-to-date with the latest release of software
Provides two-year warranty with registration (one-year otherwise) Offers extended warranty up to 5 years and advanced replacement with 24/7 phone support up to 5 years Offers field installation supervision and private/customized training
page 14
High Security
Feature SNMPv3 Benefit
Ensures the protection of potentially sensitive network monitoring and management traffic through secure user authentication and message encryption Addresses known security holes with v1 and v2c
Secure mobile voice and data traffic with the most secure standards-based encryption available with no added latency or throughput degradation Hardware-based approach ensures that the process of encryption does not affect capacity (software-based encryption can reduce throughput by as much as 50%)
