All-outdoor Backhaul Radio

October 13, 2013

The EtherHaul-600T from Siklu is a low-cost, palm-sized, all-outdoor small-cell radio operating in the 57-GHz to 66-GHz band. The radio fits small-cell and other backhaul applications in the millimeter wave band. Its compact footprint stems from a proprietary, all-silicon integration technology that is responsible for the compact size and price point. Its small footprint makes it virtually invisible when deployed on open sites such as traffic lights, poles or building sides. Installation can be performed by a single installer with minimal training and limited telecom expertise. Optimized for street-level deployments, the small-cell radio compensates for pole sway, twist and tilt. A suite of integrated networking capabilities supports seamless, zero-touch integration into a self-organizing network. Gigabit throughput future-proofs the backhaul network and meets bandwidth needs even for multiple collocated carriers and deployments in advanced topologies. The unlicensed 60-GHz band enables full flexibility in selecting installation sites and deployment. In addition, unique propagation characteristics make it immune to interference and allow for high spectrum reuse. www.siklu.com
