Backhaul Solutions for the Most Challenging Locations and Applications

Introduction

Motorola Introduces the Addition of Canopy

OFDM Backhaul Solutions

To Its MOTOwi4

Backhaul Portfolio

Motorola’s Canopy

System provides carrier, service provider and enterprise network operators with a

robust wireless broadband portfolio of products to deliver proven, cost-effective, secure, carrier-grade

broadband access exactly when and where it is needed.

The MOTOwi4 Backhaul Portfolio includes two series of Canopy backhaul technology:

- The Canopy 10 and 20 Mbps Backhaul Radios

- The Canopy 30/60 and 150/300 Mbps Backhaul Radios

Both deliver enterprise users, service providers and carriers highly reliable and secure point-to-point

wireless backhaul links for bandwidth-intense and latency sensitive applications.

The Canopy 10 and 20 Mbps Backhaul Radios are designed for Line-of-Sight (LoS) applications

with low latency (under 5ms roundtrip) and high reliability for low cost deployment worldwide in five

unlicensed frequencies. (2.4, 5.1, 5.2, 5.4 & 5.7GHz).

The Canopy 30/60 & 150/300 Mbps OFDM BH Radios are designed for LoS, nLoS & NLoS

applications with low latency

(<7ms for 30/60; <1ms for 150/300) and high reliability for deployment

worldwide.Canopy 30/60 Mbps Backhual is available in the 5.7GHz and 5.4 GHz unlicensed band.

Canopy 150/300 Mbps Backhaul is available in 5.7 GHz unlicensed band.The radios are offered in two

versions, with a choice of - Integrated and Connectorized antennas - providing the operator with the

flexibility to establish challenging links over water, through trees, over hills and around buildings using the

small integrated antenna form factor or by using higher gain flat or parabolic antennas with the

Connectorized version.

Just like the other Canopy Backhaul solutions, the Canopy 30/60 and 150/300 Mbps OFDM Backhaul

solutions are designed to easily deploy in a matter of hours and to operate for years in extreme weather

conditions from -40 to +60 C. Each solution in the Canopy Backhaul portfolio offers high carrier-to-

interference (C/I) ratio, which enables exceptional performance in high interference environments. The

OFDM Backhaul Radios include additional interference mitigation techniques as well

- DFS, Adaptive

Modulation, Transmit Diversity

- improving performance and uptime in challenging nLoS and NLoS

applications. By providing a secure, high throughput short-range NLoS or long-range LoS connection, the

Canopy system 30/60 or 150/300 Mbps OFDM Backhaul solution provides a wireless alternative to

remove network bottlenecks at a fraction of the cost of wire line alternatives.
