TrangoLINK Apex Orion™
Ultra-High Capacity, All-Outdoor Microwave Backhaul System
Apex Orion Overview
The Trangolink Apex Orion is an all-outdoor ultra-high capacity full duplex point-to-point radio link specifically designed for all IP wireless backhaul. It is ideal for fixed and mobile service providers due to it’s zero footprint design, easy installation, and metro switch features. The system supports all standard licensed microwave bands from 6 to 40 GHz, with up to 1000 Mbps capacity in a single 56 MHz channel using XPIC.
The Apex Orion features QPSK through 1024 QAM modulation, fixed latency Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM). Gigabit capacity can be realized in a single 56 Mhz channel (XPIC) or with 112 MHz 2+0 configuration, using a single traffic interface due to the physical link aggregation between radios.
The system supports both fiber and copper Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with in-band and out-of-band management, and can be powered directly or over Ethernet using a PoE injector.
Advanced Networking Metro Switch
- Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (G.8032) with sub 50 mS convergence
- Rapid and Multiple Spanning Tree (RSTP, MSTP) 802.3ad Link Aggregation
- Ethernet Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) for service monitoring, fault management, and link connectivity
- Advanced QoS for VLAN, Diffserv, and MPLS traffic, with per port and per flow control
Synchronization
The Apex Orion includes both SyncE and IEEE1588 precision time protocol for timing over packet (ToP). The system stamps 1588v2 packets using standard transparent clock correction fields.
Multilayer Header Compression
Depending on packet mix, 500- 800 Mbps can be achieved on a single channel with the multilayer (L2 –L4) header compression feature. This is especially useful in smaller channel bandwidths when using the smaller packet sizes typically found in Carrier networks
