NetStream 5x50 is ideally suited to meet the connectivity needs of cellular operators, service providers, enterprises and private networks, providing high capacity connectivity of up to 100 Mbps (50 Mbps full duplex) at ranges of up to 120 Km / 70 miles.

Available with a wide range of frequency bands and configurations, the cost-effective NetStream 5x50 solutions are extremely simple to install and maintain, and are typically up and running in less than an hour.

Key Benefits

Highest IP and TDM capacity in its class
Superior OFDM and MIMO technologies
Industry proven solution; thousands of systems installed at leading carrier sites globally
Extremely simple to install and maintain (minimal OPEX)
Available in license exempt frequencies, eliminating regulatory overhead and reducing network ramp-up time
Lower cost of ownership significantly reduces both CAPEX and OPEX

SUPERIOR RANGE AND LINK STABILITY

Thanks to its high transmit power and highly sensitive receiver, NetStream 5x50 can deliver stable and robust links for transfer of IP traffic as well as TDM lines in E1 or T1 formats over long distances. The actual range is more dependent to the installation site than to the radio characteristics. If a clear line of site is provided distances up to 120 km/70 Miles are easily achievable. Due to the TDM nature of the air frame and using advanced error correction routines, the links are extremely stable and can easily replace cable based solutions and licensed radio links in serious carrier level scenarios.

HUB SITE SYNCHRONIZATION

Netronics NetStream 5x50 solutions can also be installed in a unique Multiple-Point-to-Point architecture; multiple units are deployed in one hub site location, from where they provide a dedicated high-capacity connection to each remote site.

The Multiple-Point-to-Point concept builds on Netronics unique Hub Site Synchronization (HSS) feature, which synchronizes the transmission of collocated NetStream 5x50 radios thus removing potential interference commonly experienced with collocated TDD radios.

DIRECT E1/T1 TO THE RADIO (NO CONVERSION TO IP)

E1/T1 lines are directly fed to the radio with no conversion to IP. The unique proprietary air frame format makes it possible to combine TDM and IP traffic in the same frame so none of the two traffic types are converted to the other. The result is an E1/T1 transfer solution with very low latency suitable for multiple hop cascaded links used for transfer of voice trunk lines over more than one hundred kilo meters.

AUTOMATIC CHANNEL SELECTION

Build for extra stability in license exempt band, NetStream 5x50 is using different techniques to cope with radio interference. Among them there is provision for changing the channel from the present working channel to one of the pre-configured free channels in the case of interference. The channel change is happening fast enough to be transparent for the IP traffic.

COST EFFECTIVE

NetStream 5x50 replaces expensive licensed band radios, costly cable installations and connects tough non-line of site locations, all at a minimal cost compared to the performance and reliability delivered.

IDEAL FOR BACKHAUL APPLICATIONS

NetStream 5x50 is widely used for backhauling applications for:

Cellular mobile backhauls
Metro WiFi coverage networks
Enterprise backhaul when the organizations operate in different buildings in a city
Connection of PBX systems in different buildings of an organizations
Backhaul for WiMAX base stations, connecting the cells to the core network

EXCELLENT NON LINE OF SITE PERFORMANCE

Using OFDM technology along with an accurate wireless modem and a sensitive radio, NetStream 5x50 is capable of delivering a stable link in non-line of site scenarios in which other wireless networking devices either fail to connect, or provide a poor and unstable links. This is a major advantage when the link is used for GSM BTS backhaul in dense urban environments. NetStream has been installed in the most challenging situations and have been able to provide an error free and stable link for long time.

WIDE RANGE OF FREQUENCIES ON A SINGLE UNIT

NetStream 5x50 is using a wide band radio along with a flexible wireless modem making it possible to configure the operational frequency between 2.4 GHz and 5.1 to 5.9 GHz in a single unit. This gives the owners the freedom to use more vacant frequency bands (when allowed) without buying a new unit specific to the new target band. This is possible through a wide band synthesizer based radio circuit which is least dependent to the center frequency.
