Overview The MDR-8000 Packet Plus is Alcatel-Lucent’s premier digital microwave radio for long-haul, point-to-point wireless communications. The flexible platform offers features designed to provide robust operation, while also reducing your total cost of ownership. With a common platform that supports virtually all frequency bands from 2-11 GHz, the MDR-8000 Packet Plus can meet your needs for high-capacity backbone routes, as well as low- capacity spurs. It offers transmission capacity from 4-

Applications Wireless Backhaul As cellular and PCS networks continue to grow, the MDR-8000 Packet Plus is an ideal choice for connecting cell sites or backhauling traffic to the switch. The broad range of capacities and frequency bands provide ultimate flexibility for both long- and short-haul applications. In addition, the high reliability typically provides vastly superior performance as compared to leased DS1 circuits, usually with a very attractive payback period. The unlicensed versions of

Public Safety Networks Public Safety Public safety networks must provide mission critical services, be quickly expandable, and be easily managed from end to end. Applications may be for interfacility and inter-agency communications, or for backhaul in land mobile radio (LMR) networks. Public safety networks also face a variety of critical issues: interfacility communications are becoming more complex and require higher bandwidth; use of real-time video is increasing, as well as data – primarily

Federal Government Agencies The MDR-8000 Packet Plus also provides its rugged characteristics in service to the U.S. Federal Government. Operating in the NTIA-regulated frequency bands, the highly compact radio can mount in the tightest spaces while providing wireless means for overcoming geographic obstacles, right-of-way costs, and construction delays associated with wired facilities. This scalable and readily-deployable architecture provides reliable backbone communications for agencies such

significantly helps to overcome interference. In practical terms, the MDR-8000 Packet Plus can operate with an antenna one size smaller than a spread spectrum radio on paths longer than 8 miles. The narrowband modulation of the MDR-8000 Packet Plus also allows better utilization of the available spectrum, as multiple RF channel pairs can be utilized. This is especially helpful at multi-way junction sites where a wider array of selectable frequencies is required to avoid intra-system interference

Wayside DS1s Alcatel-Lucent’s MDR-8000 Packet Plus provides one DS1 hot-standby protected wayside signal per DS3 equipped on the radio. Therefore, a 1xDS3 radio also includes one wayside DS1, and a 3xDS3 or OC-3 radio offers three wayside DS1 MDR-8000 Compact Shelf circuits. These ancillary DS1 channels can be used for maintenance circuits (quick, easy introduction of additional orderwires, data channels, and LAN/WAN circuits), or they can be used to carry MDR-8000 Compact Shelf critical traffic
