Harris Debuts New Microwave Radio Architecture

Harris Corporation unveiled an entirely new microwave radio architecture for providing SDH and PDH in a single platform for mobile, private network, government, and access service providers. Key technological advances of the Harris TRuepoint include its ability to migrate from 4 to 180 Mbps on one radio, and its ability to support all operating frequency bands from 6 to 38 GHz and network interfaces for E rates, T rates, STM1, OC3, 10baseT, and 100baseT. Internal network multiplexing capabilities support circuit grooming and add/drop multiplexing for improved efficiency and reduced network cost. The mixed network interfaces are particularly valuable for CDMA, GSM and GPRS operators who plan to overlay 3G IP networks.


Additional key features of TRuepoint include advanced FEC (forward error correction) schemes for bandwidth and system gain optimization, automatic transmit power control, reverse channel switching, built-in self diagnostics, embedded SNMP, dynamic bandwidth allocation, and other options.


TRuepoint is currently in field trials with a leading cellular network operator.
