broadband radio
solution for Ethernet
and TDM traffic over
license-free frequencies
For North America Only
Airmux-400 is a carrier-class, cost-effective multi point-to-point broadband wireless transmission device. It combines legacy TDM and Ethernet services for transmission over 2.4, 4.9 and 5.3–5.8 GHz bands, and is suitable for deployment in FCC and IC-regulated countries.
For the global markets of cellular backhaul, WiMAX and ISP backhaul, broadband access, large private and government networks, Airmux-400 offers high throughput, longer range and robustness at a competitive price.
Airmux-400
Broadband Wireless Multiplexer (Ver. 2.4)
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Traffic Backhaul Cellular – Connecting cellular base stations to controllers. This solution meets the requirements of cellular backhaul applications by providing TDM and Ethernet traffic for CDMA and GSM connectivity.
WiFi – Backhauling traffic from WiFi hot spots at remote locations to the service provider network.
WiMAX – Backhauling WiMAX traffic from remote locations over wireless link at the distances of up to 75 miles (120 km)
ISP – Backhauling the Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) traffic from their Point of Presence (POP) to the core network in point-to-point, multiple point-to-point topologies.
Private Networks Establishing TDM and Ethernet connectivity between the remote branches and headquarters for educational, financial, security and utilities sectors.
Broadband Access Airmux-400 provides broadband Ethernet and leased line services, to corporations, and Small and Medium Enterprises (SME).
The following models with different Ethernet or aggregate throughputs are available:
• Airmux-400 100M – 100 Mbps throughput with up to 16 T1/E1s, asymmetric. This model supports user-selectable uplink/downlink capacity configuration (50–50% up to 95–5%) and is aimed at IP backhaul applications.
• Airmux-400 50M – 50 Mbps (Ethernet and up to 16 T1/E1s) aggregate, symmetric. This model is best suited for combined TDM and IP traffic delivery.
Airmux systems are deployed as single or multi point-to-point collocated links.
Transmission range of up to 75 miles (120 km) is attainable with an external antenna.
PHYSICAL CONFIGURATIONS
Airmux multiplexers consist of an outdoor unit (ODU), an optional external antenna and an indoor unit (IDU) with redundant DC power supplies. The outdoor unit is suitable for mast or wall installation.
SUPERIOR SPECTRAL EFFICIENCY
Built on advanced MIMO and OFDM technologies, Airmux-400 provides a high-capacity link at channel bandwidth of 20 MHz. This guarantees a robust air interface able to withstand strong RF interference and harsh ambient conditions.
SECURITY
Data transmitted over the air interface is encrypted using Advanced Encryption System (AES) with a 128-bit encryption key.

Data Sheet
QUALITY OF SERVICE
When the link quality is low, Airmux-400 automatically searches for a clear channel within a pre-selected list of frequencies.
SHORT TIME-TO-SERVICE
Because Airmux-400 operates in license-exempt frequencies, it can be deployed in record time, eliminating the costs and delays involved in leasing lines or trenching fiber.
HUB SITE SYNCHRONIZATION
Hub Site Synchronization (HSS) assists in the collocation of radios by reducing the interference that normally occurs when multiple radios transmit and receive in close proximity to one another. HSS allows a complex radio environment of mixed services (TDM and Ethernet) and channel bandwidth frequencies (10 or 20 MHz). The collocation feature requires ordering the HSS unit as well as its synchronization cables.
HSS installations support up to 16 collocated radios. Like any other RF deployment, the wireless operation is highly dependent on factors such as available frequencies, the physical spacing between radios, other interfering radios, and whether Airmux-400 or Airmux-200 units are utilized.
HSS does not eliminate the need for careful RF planning to ensure the design will work as planned.
1+1 LINK REDUNDANCY
The Monitored Hot Standby (MHS) 1+1 link redundancy protects the wireless transmission in case of equipment failure or air interface loss. Link switchover is performed in less than 50 msec.
DIVERSITY
With dual bipolar antennas, Airmux-400 links can be configured to transmit the same data through both radios. This adds data transmission integrity under harsh conditions.
MANAGEMENT
A single SNMP-based network management application (Airmux Manager) is used to control multiple Airmux-400 and Airmux-200 links as a unified network.
RADview-EMS, RAD’s SNMP-based management software provides access to the Airmux Manager via its topology map.
VLAN management allows the separation of user traffic from NMS traffic. The user decides if such a separation is required. Both the headquarters and remote sites are configured with VLAN management.
Factory settings can be restored at any time for each ODU.
Information on links and management can be collected and analyzed via a single action.
The Airmux Manager Spectrum View utility is an RF survey tool enabling the link installation prior to full link service activation. The tool provides comprehensive and clear spectral measurement information for easier, faster and better quality installations.
LAN PORTS
The IDU-E devices include three LAN ports: two Fast Ethernet UTP (RJ-45) and one SFP slot.
When using RAD’s MiTOP-E3/T3, SFP-format TDM pseudowire gateway, Airmux-400 delivers T3/E3 data streams over its wireless link.
