Applications

2.1.1 4G
DragonWave offers a high-capacity, carrier-grade, integrated solution for Ethernet backhaul using
interference-free licensed spectrum. Horizon Compact Plus enables rapid network expansion with remote
scalability from 10 Mbps to 800 Mbps. With Horizon Compact Plus the radio and modem are integrated
into a single all-outdoor element attached directly to the antenna, allowing simple integration and
eliminating any impact on the 4G base station footprint. Management integration into the base station
EMS provides a single point of control for operations personal.
2.1.2 3G Cellular Backhaul / Ethernet Evolution
Meet the growing demand for increased capacity and data transport resulting from 3G cellular
deployments. Horizon Compact Plus provides Cost-effective, low capacity TDM services for base stations
today. The DragonWave portfolio of products offers software controlled upgradeability to high-capacity
native Ethernet and TDM services with ultra-low latency to enable 3G evolution with the minimum of
network churn.
2.1.3 Leased Line Replacement
For many businesses, the only option for last mile access is the ILEC, provided on an aging copper
infrastructure with long MTTR. Horizon Compact Plus can replace leased services and eliminate recurring
and expensive telecom Costs while at the same time improving service availability and enabling future
growth and options for services with a scalable Ethernet network.
2.1.4 Last Mile Fibre Extension
The greatest demand for broadband services is within the core metro markets. Horizon Compact Plus
provides a superior complementary networking solution to rapidly extend high speed IP services from
locations already attached to the service provider's network. The DragonWave portfolio of products is
ideal for network hardening, disaster recovery and applications that require legacy TDM services and
carrier-grade, high capacity native Ethernet systems.
