Solutions / Mobile Backhaul

Mobile Backhaul PDF E-mail
The bandwidth explosion is right here, right now, in every mobile network. BOOM! Conventional backhaul networks cannot affordably scale to meet this demand. In addition, the handling of synchronization issues quickly becomes highly complex and expensive.  At the same time there is a trend towards more and more mobile operators using optical fiber to connect a growing proportion of their base stations.

Transmode’s Mobile Backhaul Solutions respond to the requirements of mobile operators by pushing Intelligent WDM (iWDM™) technology to the cell site to cost-efficiently increase Mobile Backhaul capacity  This is a successful way to utilize standard WDM technology and provides mobile, fixed and wholesale operators with a speedway to the cell site and cost efficient transport of Ethernet as well as native TDM traffic.

Transmode’s solution for transport of Ethernet traffic – the Ethernet Mobile Backhaul Solution – which we delivered to Virgin Media, is perfect for operators and wholesalers who are addressing the bandwidth explosion by rolling out low cost and scalable Ethernet bandwidth. Built with industry leading synchronization, ultra-low latency and zero jitter it is ideal in mobile networks. Learn more of this solution in the Ethernet Mobile Backhaul Whitepaper.

For the cost efficient transport of both native TDM and Ethernet traffic, Transmode delivers its Multi-Service Mobile Backhaul Solution. The film below shows how:

Both solutions support multiple individually synchronized domains which is beneficial in mobile networks where one cell site may contain several mobile technologies or even multiple mobile operators, where the ability to handle synchronization from multiple sources is vital.

Transmode’s Mobile Backhaul Solutions are optimized for the cost efficient transport of Ethernet and TDM traffic, and are based on the successful and well proven Multi-Service capabilities and the Native Packet Optical architecture.
