AGS20L-M SW License to enable 2nd IF carrier

AGS Series - Universal Aggregation Platform

AGS20 is a Universal Microwave Aggregation Platform that flexibly addresses the different RAN generation needs over a common wireless transport infrastructure, including LTE-Advanced and 5G new stringent requirements. The AGS20 is a family of microwave aggregators with multiple mechanical arrangements designed to fit different needs and deployment scenarios in a modern mobile backhaul infrastructure. The ASNK ODU is extremely compact in size with less than 2 liters volume and with a benchmarking power consumption of 10W, help operators in diminishing CO2 emissions.

AGS20 addresses the need for carrier-class multi-technology traffic aggregation, with high performance Carrier Ethernet 2.0 and IP/MPLS engine, with multiple 1/2,5/10Gbps ports, while maintaining full support of the legacy traffic E1 and STM-1 services.

The platform enables convergence of the major microwave application segments:

* Next Generation indoor unit for advanced packet processing

* Aggregation of IF and All-Outdoor Radio including E-Band

* Modular configuration for evolving complex sites

UNIVERSAL PRODUCT ARCHITECTURE

Microwave radio products have evolved in terms of functionality and physical arrangements to cover in an effective and efficient way they can be employed in any application.

AGS20 as part of the SIAE MICROELETTRONICA Unified Product Architecture, utilizes at its core the SM-OS operating system based over three major components:

Network Management Plane

* NETCONF/Yang in SDN deployment

* SNMP v1/v2c/v3, HTTPs, SSH, SFTP

* RADIUS for centralized user management

Data Plane

* MEF 2.0 - Carrier Ethernet Services

* IP/MPLS - L2/L3 VPN Services

* QoS/HQoS - queue management/policing and shaping

Synch Plane

* Synchronous Ethernet

* ITU-T G.8275.1 Profiles (T-BC)

* 1 PPS in/out port

NEXT GENERATION UNIT FOR SPLIT MOUNT RADIO

AGS20 sets a new industry benchmark in split mount microwave by featuring the following capabilities:

* Modulation up to 4096 QAM

* Channel spacing up to 112 MHz

* Lower than 2 Litre volume for easier installation

* Multicarrier Aggregation for Hybrid Link (standard licensed frequency band and a millimeter wave 80 GHz band)
