Most I have done have been in the -30s or -40s. Need good system margin to keep 
99.999% at something near full modulation. Otherwise, you're paying for 
something you're not using.

all your licensed links should be engineered for -50 or lower

Well yeah, I guess that's what I was trying to say. Just think of the 4096 as a 
bonus, it's nice when it's in that nodulation, but realistically any FDD 
throughout claims in Mbps from a marketing department are closer to fluff than 
operational reality.

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.

Keeping in mind 4096qam requires a really high RSL like -50, so it's better to 
think of it as a 1024qam radio. 
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.

Well, what do they get at a 112 MHz channel instead of an 80 MHz channel? 
Europe has 112 MHz channels available now. 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.

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..
