Siae Microelettronica, a supplier and innovator of microwave backhaul solutions, has announced that AeroNet, the premier Business Internet Service Provider in Puerto Rico, has implemented its Multi-band-link (MBL) radio systems to fuel their network growth. By upgrading to Multi-band-link, AeroNet is able to offer 10 Gbps services in the area with 1 Gbps SLAs.
Faced with the challenge of providing 10 Gbps services in a historic section of Old San Juan with limited fiber availability, AeroNet opted for a multi-band-link wireless solution offering fiber-like capacity. Multi-band-link pairs of the ALFOPlus80HDX 10 Gbps radio with an ALFOPlus2 2 Gbps system providing the needed connectivity for MPLS and data services were used.
Multi-band-link extends e-band throughput at multi-mile distances with augmentation of microwave traffic at Layer 1, maintaining high availability connections. This implementation simplifies the configuration of the link with no incremental provisioning of an external Layer 2/3 device. With separate radios supporting 80 GHz and microwave, flexibility in utilizing any of the licensed bands from 6 to 42 GHz is realized, along with no single point of failure.
