20% - 30% lower power consumption than competitors

Patented dynamic power amplifier control gives:
• Full output power with 70W per carrier for a complete system
• Reduced OPEX - cost of electricity, power and heat
management

A typical site with 10 TRX

• saves 500 USD per year in electricity cost
• saves about 1 ton of CO2 emission per year

For a solar power site the difference in CAPEX is 22,400

• With adaptive modulation, the microwave link can scale down modulation
under

• Acts “early” - before errors are introduced
• Protects long data flows for time-out, but with reduced speed
• Adaptive Modulation acts only about for one hour a year
