Overview

Overview
Motorola PTP 600 Series Bridge products are designed for Ethernet bridging over
point-to-point microwave links in the licensed bands 2.5 GHz, 4.5 GHz, 4.8 GHz and
4.9 GHz, and in the unlicensed bands 5.4 GHz (ETSI Band B), 5.8 GHz (ETSI Band C
and FCC ISM band) and 5.9 GHz. Users must ensure that the PTP 600 Series complies
with local operating regulations.
The PTP 600 Series acts as a transparent bridge between two segments of the
operator's network. In this sense, it can be treated as a virtual wired connection
between two points. The PTP 600 Series forwards 802.3 Ethernet packets destined for
the other part of the network and filters packets it does not need to forward. The
system is transparent to higher-level protocols such as VLANs and Spanning Tree.

Key features

The key features of the PTP 600 Series include:
•
True non-line-of-sight (NLOS) operation by using a combination of Orthogonal
Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation and Multiple-Input
Multiple-Output (MIMO) techniques.
•
Wireless connections of up to 200km (124 miles) in near line-of-sight conditions
and up to 10km (6 miles) in deep non-line-of-sight conditions.
•
Coexistence with other users of the band using a combination of Automatic
Transmit Power Control (ATPC), Spectrum Management functionality and
Antenna beam shape.
•
High link availability, through the use of adaptive modulation techniques that
dynamically reduce the data rate in severe or adverse conditions.
•
High system gain through high sensitivity antennas for improved signal recovery.
•
A radio system that operates on ultra-fast digital signal processors but is
controlled by updateable firmware.
•
A built-in web server for advanced management capabilities including detailed
radio signal diagnosis.
•
A range of security features to prevent unauthorized access to data. Optional AES
encryption for data transmitted over the wireless, with 128-bit or 256-bit
encryption keys. Optional HTTPS/TLS security on the web-based management
interface. SNMPv3 with optional AES privacy and SHA1 authentication.
