Silvernet has enhanced its range with the introduction of a 2Gbps backhaul link. The device is an IP network-based radio link operating in the 80GHz E-band spectrum and offers a rugged, high capacity outdoor radio link which is optimized for transmission up to 5 kilometers.
It is typically used for wireless transmission of multiple channels of high volume video to a single location. It negates the need for costly fiber networks or leased lines and provides dedicated bandwidth which is not shared with others. “This is an ideal solution for aggregating a number of 5GHz radio links to a single point and then backhauling, for example, to a remotely located control room,” said Chris Ballard, the company’s Managing Director.
