This section provides an overview of the design and benefits of Broadband Fixed
Wireless (BFW) network architecture based on the Redline AN-30 System.
10.1.
Who Can Benefit From The AN-30 System?
The AN-30 system is an ideal solution for:
• Carriers
• Internet Service Providers (ISPs)
• Enterprises
• Educational Institutions and Campuses
A) Carriers
The AN-30 system will provide benefits to both Incumbent and Competitive Local
Exchange Carriers (ILECs and CLECs, respectively). Although ILECs own and provide
services over wireline infrastructures within a specific geographical area, they are faced
with the challenges of reaching outlying regions suffering from poor to no service. The
ILEC is usually compelled to provide an expensive solution using a series of PTP radio
links, with low throughput (e.g., T1) and costly license fees and network interfaces
including T1 multiplexers. The AN-30 system provides a cost-effective alternative, by
connecting a remote site from the local CO, as shown in see Figure 17.
The same challenges are faced by CLECs, who can use the AN-30 system to:
• Extend their existing fiber network, and
• Establish a remote Point of Presence (POP).
Mobility carriers will benefit from the AN-30 to provide a cost-effective alternative to
landline T1/E1 carrier leased circuits. In most cases, equipment payback is achieved in 6-
