Calculation example
Suppose that the link characteristics are:
PTP 650 variant = Mid
Link Symmetry = 1:1
Link Mode Optimization = TDM
Modulation Mode = 64QAM 0.92 Dual
Channel Bandwidth = 10 MHz
Link Range = 60 km
The calculation procedure for this example is as follows:
1
Use Table 55 to look up the data throughput capacity rates:
Tx = 23 Mbits/s
Rx = 23 Mbits/s
Aggregated = 46 Mbits/s
2
Use Figure 40 to look up the Throughput Factor for 1:1, TDM, 10 MHz, Mid and Link Range
60 km. The factor is 0.86.
3
Multiply the rates from Step 1 by the Throughput Factor from Step 2 to give the throughput
capacity of the link:
Tx = 19.8 Mbits/s
Rx = 19.8 Mbits/s
Aggregated = 39.6 Mbits/s
