Product Introduction
The IP-20 is a highly flexible aggregation node device capable of delivering massive multi-gigabit wireless transmission capacity. Equipped with multi-core RF technology and a new RF unit, it features high modularity and flexible scalability; its plug-and-play modules support numerous RF carriers, compatible with diverse line interfaces and adaptable to various network topologies, making it the preferred choice for transmission network aggregation sites.
The IP-20 employs a No Single Point of Failure (NSPF) architecture, with the main control unit, all line interfaces, and RF interfaces all featuring redundant protection to ensure continuous and stable network performance for various applications.
The IP-20 highly flexible aggregation node device covers the entire microwave and millimeter-wave spectrum, delivering high spectral efficiency across both licensed and unlicensed bands (4–86 GHz). It fully supports high-speed data interfaces such as 10GE/1GE/FE, as well as various time-division multiplexing interfaces including T1 and OC-3. The device can operate with multiple RF units featuring different core configurations, power ratings, or output capabilities, supporting diverse RF configuration schemes such as 2×8+0 and 8×2+0.
The device features a telecom-grade Ethernet processing engine certified by MEF 2.0 and a high-performance TDM service processing engine, capable of handling both IP packet services and traditional legacy TDM services simultaneously. It comes standard with basic security components; for comprehensive security protection across all dimensions, the IP-20 Security Enhancement Platform can be selected.
