Products from SnapLink

The Snaplink product family of IP Radios is easy to install and turn up for data, VoIP and video transport. It uses standard 802.3 Ethernet protocol interfaces to provide 54Mbps (Half Duplex) of clear digital IP transport. Because SL-24U radio operates in the unlicensed 24Ghz band, there is no need for frequency coordination or interface with the FCC.

Eliminate Leased Lines and Save, Using RoIP

Voice-Grade leased lines can be very costly, especially if they are crossing state boundary lines and they are installed and managed by telephone companies. Voice Grade Leased Lines can be circumvented by transporting digitized baseband audio from land-mobile radio systems over existing TCP/IP networks supported by Raytheon JPS' NXU-2A Network eXtension Units. The NXU-2A uses RoIP (Radio Over Internet Protocol) to convert land mobile radio baseband audio to datagram, which can then be routed over an existing digital network.

Katrina Panel Report Generates FCC Back-up Power Requirement

by Richard P. Biby, P. E.

A major change for the siting industry comes in the form of an order from the FCC that may prove to be expensive for carriers and a boon for generator manufacturers.

The FCC has taken several initiatives that affect tower owners or its licensees or both.

The biggest change for the wireless infrastructure industry is found in paragraph 77 of an Order the FCC released on June 8.

The paragraph reads, "We will require all local exchange carriers (LECs), including incumbent LECs (ILECs) and competitive LECs (CLECs), as well as commercial mobile radio service (CMRS) providers to have... [Continue reading]
