Packet-optimized
backhaul and transport
As broadband wireless technologies like WiMAX
bring unprecedented capacity burdens, backhaul and
transport networks are becoming more critical than
ever.Theindustryislateinrealizingthisarearepre-
sents one of the highest costs in deploying a WiMAX
network.Withawiderangeofpacket-optimized
technology options, Alcatel-Lucent offers valuable
waystooptimizeboththecostofinitialdeployment
and scaling up capacity over time.
Chiefamongthesepacket-optimizedtechnologies
is microwave backhauling, where Alcatel-Lucent has
options for WiMAX — the 9500 Microwave Packet
Radio,forexample,isfullIPwithhighcapacity(2Gb/s),
andscalability.Theentiremicrowaveportfoliointe-
grates directly into the WiMAX base station cabinet
