Scope
Section 1 of this document gives an overview of Nera Evolution Series PTP microwave radios. Section 2
and onwards covers the Evolution Series – EDGE specifications.
The Nera Evolution Series microwave radio dramatically changes the operations for wireless transmission
network owners. With common platform architecture, transmission capacity, system configurations and
transmission protocols can be changed to adapt to future needs. Evolution Series is designed with focus
on high MTBF to achieve low cost of ownership. Fullband ODUs leads to requirement for very few spare
parts and simplified logistics. Evolution Series ensures maximum uptime and low maintenance.
The Evolution Series microwave radio family is designed to transmit data rates from about 6 Mb/s to 1.6
GB/s, in frequency bands from 4 GHz to 40 GHz. The configuration of capacity and modulation is
configurable, giving an optimal balance between system gain and spectral efficiency. The units in the
system are very flexible allowing a wide range of capacities and features to be enabled by software.
Network operators can easily future proof the network as the microwave radio can easily adapt to the
evolution of the transmission network. Growing traffic and the convergence of network technologies
causes changing requirements, such as capacity upgrades, change of transmission systems between PDH,
SDH/SONET and pure Ethernet; all this is simply implemented by software configuration change and
change of interface modules. The available interfaces range from E1, T1, E3, DS3 STM-1/OC-3, and
STM-4/OC12 to 10/100BASE-TX and Gigabit Ethernet.
The Evolution Series radios are integrated in Nera’s EM/NMS system, NetMaster. Integration of Fault
and Performance management into 3rd party SNMP Managers are possible using the Evolution SNMP
MIBs provided by Nera.
A high degree of RF circuit integration is achieved using Microwave Monolithic Integrated Circuits
(MMIC’s). This, combined with a direct at RF modulation architecture, enables a broadband and compact
ODU design. Furthermore, patented power amplifier technology delivers low power consumption which
further enhances reliability.
TM
NGP\00586 Rev.B, 2009-05-29 Evolution Series EDGE 7
The modem contains multi-level modulation, combined with powerful error correction codes. The modem
is extremely flexible, enabling an optimum configuration for all capacities and channel plans.
The ODU consists of a Transceiver and a Diplexer. The ODU is frequency and capacity agile over the
whole frequency band. The Diplexer tuning range is very wide and most frequency bands can be covered
by 2-3 variants for the whole band. The frequency setting is easy and is performed locally or remotely
through the GUI or element manager.
The ODU can be mounted directly on the antenna, both in unprotected and protected configurations. The
ODU can also be mounted on the antenna pole, using a short flexible waveguide to the antenna.
The various InterFace Units (IFUs) are extremely compact, catering for cost efficient solutions to both
TDM and Ethernet traffic needs. The IFUs contains the user interfaces, baseband processing and
multiplexing, management and radio interfaces. The embedded SDH/PDH cross-connects allows flexible
aggregation of TDM traffic from tail sites, while the advanced Ethernet L2/VLAN-switch performs
carrier Ethernet service aggregation and QoS functions.
1.2. Network Applications
The Evolution Series microwave radio is ideally suited for carrier grade backhauling of mobile- and/or
WiMAX- networks. The flexibility in configurations between Ethernet, E1/T1 and SDH/SONET is
future-proofing the investment, as the equipment can easily adapt to a pure packet network by simple
software re-configuration.
Backhaul networks
- The Evolution Series PtP radio is ideal for demanding and critical application such as backhaul of 3G
and the emerging 4G cellular systems. The hybrid nature of the Evolution Series, makes it a perfect
choice for backhaul of legacy TDM based services as well as a mix mode network, where TDM and
IP traffic are carried over a shared link, towards the next generation all IP infrastructure.
- Where loss of traffic directly results in loss of revenue, reliability and maximum uptime are critical
parameters for the network operator. The Evolution Series reliable and flexible architecture as well as
high system gain, ensures increased availability of the offered services, and a secured revenue stream.
The embedded E1 cross-connect enables routing of traffic without the need for external cabling. The
radio can be configured for a wide range of capacities, ensuring an optimal utilization of the available
spectrum as well as capabilities for upgrading when traffic demand increases or new services are
introduced.

2. SYSTEM OVERVIEW – EVOLUTION SERIES EDGE
The remaining sections of this document cover Evolution Series EDGE.
Evolution Series EDGE is a fully software configurable point-to-point radio system with split
architecture. Transmission capacity, adaptive modulation, cross-connect and Ethernet features are
controlled by licenses and upgrades can easily be done after installation.
Licensed frequency bands: 7, 8, 11, 13, 15, 18, 23, 26, 38 GHz
System configuration: 1+0 and Hot Standby
Channel bandwidths: 7 - 28 MHz
Throughput: 10.5 – 111 Mb/s
Fixed or hitless adaptive modulation
Native mapping of Ethernet traffic into radio-frame with minimal overhead
Optional up to 20xE1 mapped directly to radio-frame
Embedded E1 cross-connect
EBUS - for easy interconnection of IFUs in a traffic node
One Transceiver covers one complete frequency band (very few spares needed)
Advanced Ethernet switching features
Low power consumption
Evolution Series EDGE is utilizing native mapping of Ethernet and E1 into the radio frame. E1 capacity
is selectable between 0 and 20xE1. Remaining link capacity is used for Ethernet traffic. Fixed or adaptive
modulation is selectable in RF-channels of 7, 14 or 28 MHz. Changes and upgrades can be done by the
user without HW changes of the basic platform.
In adaptive modulation mode, the radio will select the highest possible throughput based on received
signal quality. If the signal quality is degraded due to link fading or interference, the radio will change to
a more robust modulation and link throughput is consequently reduced. When signal quality improves,
the modulation is automatically increased and link throughput is restored to the original setting. The
throughput changes are hitless (no bit errors introduced). During a period of reduced throughput, the
traffic is prioritized based on Ethernet QoS - and E1 priority - settings. In case of congestion, Ethernet
and/or E1 traffic with lowest priority is dropped. E1 capacity is fixed per modulation state based on the
E1 priority setting.
2.1. Hardware Overview
A non-protected terminal consists of one IFU, one ODU and one antenna. The IFU and the ODU is
interconnected by a single coaxial cable carrying power to the ODU and user-traffic. Maximum distance
between IFU and ODU is 200m. The ODU consist of a Transceiver and a Diplexer. Each Transceiver
covers a full frequency band (e.g. the 23GHz band).The Diplexer covers a sub-band, and there are
typically 2-3 different diplexers per frequency band. The diplexers are field replaceable. For an
ODU/diplexer overview see Appendix 1.
TM
NGP\00586 Rev.B, 2009-05-29 Evolution Series EDGE 9
2.2. Software Overview
The equipment has two software banks in the IFU, one active and one inactive for backup and upgrades.
Upgrades can be downloaded to the inactive software bank using the Graphical User Interface (GUI) or
the element manager (NetMaster). Active software bank can be switched any time controlled from
NetMaster or through the GUI. Software to the ODU is automatically uploaded from the IFU at power
up. Optional software licenses are stored in the IFU. Each IFU is given an IP-address and is considered as
a network element together with its accompanied ODU. A HSB-terminal is then consistently considered
as two network elements. Terminal configuration can be uploaded from the terminal for backup and
duplication needs, and downloaded to the terminal from a saved configuration file.
2.3. Compatibility with Evolution Series METRO & XPAND
The Evolution Series EDGE is a hardware optimized solution based on the Evolution Series platform.
The IFU and ODU are optimized for cost effective edge networks, requiring TDM (E1) connections
and/or carrier Ethernet services. The ODU has the same physical appearance and is using the same
diplexers, couplers and antenna mount systems as the Evolution Series METRO & XPAND ODU. The
revolutionary external diplexer design, allowing easy replacement of diplexers in the field, is common for
all Evolution Series ODUs. The cable and connectors between the IFU and the ODU is the same.
Installation and operation of the different Evolution Series variants are very similar, and look and feel is
the same. The user interface on the embedded web manger is identical to the other Evolution Series
variants, and the management solutions for the NMS are also following the same principles.

2.8. IFU Unit Description
The Evolution Series IFU is an extremely low power unit with fixed interfaces. Each unit is slightly less
than 1RU high and only half 19” width wide. Two IFUs can be mounted next to each other in a 19” rack.
The compact IFU unit is common for all configurations and two IFU units are used in protected
configurations.
The IFU contains a built-in controller, Ethernet interfaces and a built-in Ethernet switch for packet traffic
as well as interfaces and cross-connect for E1 traffic. Traffic capacity and mix of Ethernet and E1 is user
selectable with some features controlled by software licenses. Ethernet- and E1- traffic are then carried
over the coaxial interface to the ODU where the signals are modulated to the RF-carrier.
The IFU has a built-in http-server, and may be managed by a standard web-browser.

2.9. ODU Unit Description
The ODU hardware is capacity and modulation independent. It consists of a Transceiver and a Diplexer.
The Transceiver is tunable over the whole frequency band, both high and low part. The diplexer
determines the sub-band coverage. The ODU is normally mounted directly to the antenna for all
configurations. In HSB and 2x 1+0 configurations, an RF-coupler is used when connecting the ODU to
the antenna interface.

3.7. Mechanical Characteristics
3.7.1. Installation
The equipment is very easy and quick to install. It is designed for stationary use in split mount
installations. IFU and ODU are interconnected with coaxial cable. One cable for each ODU is used. (i.e.
two cables needed for HSB systems). The IFU can be installed as a stand-alone unit, or it can be mounted
in a standard 19” rack (Ref. IEC 297-2 and IEC 297-3), or in an ETSI standard cabinet (Ref. ETSI EN
300 119) using optional mounting brackets. The ODU may be mounted directly to the antenna for
antenna sizes up to and including 1.8 m. Alternatively the ODU can be supplied with a mount for a
vertical column (Ø = 60-115 mm).

NGP\00586 Rev.B, 2009-05-29 Evolution Series EDGE 21
3.8. Power supply and consumption
The equipment operates from a battery supply between -40.5 volt and -57 volt, nominally -48 volt DC
according to EN 300 132-2. The primary DC-power is supplied to the indoor unit through a filtering and
reverse polarity protection function. The power to the outdoor unit is supplied from the indoor unit via the
IFU-ODU coaxial cable. When using Hot StandBy (HSB) configuration, the power consumption in the
standby ODU is about 12W lower than the active ODU.
Average numbers in the tables below should be used for calculating power consumption over time.
Maximum numbers should be used for dimensioning the power system to work under all environmental
and traffic load conditions.

5. BASEBAND CHARACTERISTICS
5.1. General
The E1 signals and Ethernet traffic are mapped into a scalable frame for transport towards the ODU.
Ethernet traffic goes through the built-in Ethernet switch (Layer-2 switch) where one port of the switch is
connected to the radio mapper and four FE ports are available at the front of the IFU. The Ethernet traffic
can be mixed with TDM traffic and the Ethernet traffic capacity is equal to the selected link capacity less
the capacity allocated to E1 transport.
5.2. Packet traffic support
The Link is a layer-2 device and is transparent to layer-3 for user traffic. This means that both IPv4.
IPv6 and MPLS packets encapsulated in standard Ethernet packets may be transported over the link.
Management traffic is running over IPv4. Traffic priority based on DSCP/TOS (Layer 3) is supported.
5.3. Ethernet characteristics
5.3.2. Throughput
Ethernet throughput is measured according to RFC 2544. Numbers are given for a link with no
E1 capacity configured. When E1 is used, Ethernet throughput is reduced with about 2.05Mb/s
per E1.

5.4. E1 characteristics
The IFU has 20xE1 interfaces as standard. 2xE1 is provided on each connector. E1 capacity over the link
is selectable from 0-20 x E1.
5.4.1. E1 Interfaces
Electrical Interface: 20xE1. Interface parameters acc to ITU-T Rec. G.703:
Bit rate: 2.048 Mb/s ± 50 ppm
Line code: HDB3
Impedance: 120 Ω balanced
Maximum att. of input signal at 1.024 MHz: 6 dB
Connector type: RJ-45
5.4.2. E1 priority
A priority scheme is available for E1-traffic to allow scaling of E1 capacity when the link is running with
lower capacity due to adaptive modulation. Each enabled E1 can be allocated priority from high to low.
High priority E1s will always be transmitted. Lowest priority E1s will be skipped when switching one
modulation level down and second lowest priority E1s will be skipped when switching another
modulation level.
5.4.3. E1 delay
E1 delay through one hop (from E1-interface on site A to E1-interface on site B, excluding propagation
delay): < 0.3 ms

./
. 4 5 4% # 3
The IFU and ODU element management software performs the following management tasks:
Fault management: Collecting and logging of alarms and analogue measurements from the
local terminal.
Performance management: Collecting and logging quality measurements according to standards
(G.784 and Ethernet RMON)
Configuration management: Configuration of the terminal (including configuration up/download) and
Software download
Security management: Configuration of user id/password and the users privileges in the NE.
Includes logging in NE of user actions.
6.1. The built-in supervision system
The built-in Graphical User Interface (GUI) is accessed through an IP-connection either remotely, locally
or both. With a computer in the same subnet as the IP-address of the IFU, you can access and configure
the terminal (including the IP-address).
6.1.1. Telnet
A telnet session can be opened for configuration and monitoring of a limited subset of the
parameters available through the GUI (see 6.1).

6.1.3.3. E1 performance
E1 performance is estimated based on measuring parity errors on individual E1s. G.826 performance for
the E1 bundle is then calculated and stored in the element:
• Error Seconds (ES)
• Severely Error Second (SES)
• Background Block Error (BBE)
• Unavailable state (UAS)
• Cumulative error counters.
15-min, 24-hour and 1-month records are calculated. The log contains the current and last month, current
and last 24-hour, and current and sixteen last 15-min records. Threshold values can be defined for each of
the performance records and a performance alarm will be raised if the threshold is exceeded for any of the
periods.
