CHARACTERISTICS

1.1

FOREWORD

SDH ALS13 radio equipment belongs to ACCESS LINK SERIES, the SDH family, whose main characteristics are the compactness, lightness, cheapness, programmability, easiness in installation and use and also scalability. The equipment is in compliance with the following standards: EN 301 489-4 for EMC ITU-R Rec. F497 and CEPT Rec. T/R 12-02 (go-return 266 MHz) for RF channelling EN 300 234 and EN 301 127 for fixed digital radio links in the 13GHz band EN 302 217 for fixed digital radio links EN 300 132-2 power supply characteristics EN 300 019 climatic characteristics (in operation: class 3.2 for IDU and class 4.1 for ODU; storing: class 1.2; transport: class 2.3). EN 60950 for the operator safety IEEE 802.3 for the Ethernet interfaces
