Proteus AMT L-Series Software Configurable

• Common hardware

for all available capacity, bandwidth, modulation, application

• All upgrades by software keys– Channel bandwidth: 3.5, 7, 14 or 28 MHz– Ethernet: mixed transport “on” or “off”– High Throughput (8PSK) or High Gain (QPSK)– PDH: 2, 4, 8, 12 and 16 x E1– 100BaseT Ethernet to 50 Mbps – Mixed transport of N x E1 plus Ethernet in the same radio

Plug and Play with Bandwidth, Modulation, and Data Speed

• 4 Types of LIMs (Field Replacable)• 4 Bandwidths (Field Replacable)• 4 Types of Modulations (SW)• Scalable LIM capacity (SW)• Easy expansion to higher capacities even within the same

bandwidth (SW)• LIMs are “hot swappable”, without stopping existing traffic• Large variation of different possibilities

The AMT Series IDU:

automatically identifies

•the installed IF bandwidth,

•the installed LIMs and

•the number of activated E1’s

… and adjusts the modulation from QPSK to 32 QAM to remain

within bandwidth.

(can be changed by the customer to optimize performance)

Efficient use of Bandwidth

13

Line Interface Modules (LIM)• Hot-Swap

• Automatic Detection

• Software Configurable

• Any combination of 2 LIMs can be installed together in an IDU

Mix and Match E1 and Ethernet Channels

• Start with all E1s• Integrate Ethernet in the same radio• Distribute traffic speed between E1s and Ethernet• Two ways of extending Ethernet speed

– reduce PDH capacity within your existing bandwidth or– use a wider RF band

• Total radio capacity: 122 Mb/s (100Mb/s + 4E1)
