Huawei, a provider of next-gen telecommunications network offerings, has unveiled the OptiX RTN 980, a Nodal IP microwave product to integrate hybrid and pure packet microwave transmissions.

The company has also launched an upgraded version of its OptiX 900 series that provides a throughput of 1 Gb/s per frequency carrier.

The OptiX RTN 980 supports the aggregation of microwave transmission in 14 RF directions and can evolve to support aggregation of microwave transmission in 28 RF directions.

In addition, the OptiX RTN 980 supports TDM and packet cross-connections, which allows evolution from TDM to All-IP services; and with a 22Gbps packet cross-connection capacity, the new offering also supports high density microwave deployment.

Huawei said that the upgraded OptiX RTN 900 series includes the RTN 910, RTN 950, and RTN 980 products and integrates advanced compression technology to increase throughput per frequency carrier from 400Mbps to 1Gbps.

Further, the upgraded series supports All-IP services evolution with multi protocol label switching (MPLS) technology.

Huawei network president Christian Chua said the introduction of the OptiX RTN 980 and upgraded OptiX 900 provides end-to-end IP microwave offerings that help carriers strengthen their mobile broadband services.
