I can take a 4096 radio, add engineering and come up with a 1024 performing radio (or a 4096 performing radio). I can't turn a 1024 radio into a 4096 radio. Radio, antenna and band selection as appropriate for the uptime at performance levels required.

Don't engineer link capacity needs based on 80MHz wide 4096... It'll be in 4096 maybe 99.5% of the year. Done right it can be in 1024 at five nines.

Before, SIAE had some very good spec sheets, so ask for them. I also think they can do 4096QAM? 4096 QAM and 112 MHz channels might get you there. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP From: "Peter Kranz" < [email protected] > To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, April 15, 2016 12:47:09 PM Subject: [AFMUG] AlfoPlus2 Has anyone worked with the SIAE AlfoPlus2 yet? They promise “ ALFOplus2 full outdoor solution offers 2Gbps guaranteed throughput, enabling successful launch of LTE, by providing best TCO while boosting capacity and availability of the network.” And “first full outdoor supporting up to two channels at 80/112MHz in single ODU” I can’t quite figure out how they are getting 2 Gbps.. 1x80Mhz Channel at 2048QAM = 623 Mbps in my book 2x80Mhz Channel at 2048QAM = 1245 Mbps So are they really using 4 channels? Channel 1 HxV for 1245 Channel 2 HxV for 1245 Total = 2490 Mbps.. Peter Kranz www.UnwiredLtd.com Desk: 510-868-1614 x100 Mobile: 510-207-0000 [email protected]
