Longest microwave links over the most demanding environments

Evolution Long Haul is a field-proven, high-quality multicarrier microwave radio solution for long-distance, high-capacity telecommunication networks. It allows carriers to smoothly migrate from legacy TDM to all-IP, satisfying the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth while keeping revenue generating 2G/3G services intact.

Evolution Long Haul is a flexible long-haul radio solution that has proven itself in thousands of installations in diverse conditions. High-power transceiver units with Combiner Space Diversity, field-proven, ruggedized radios and traffic-aware technologies make Evolution Long Haul an ideal choice for long-distance transport networks over any kind of terrain, for any type of application. The system is available in all licensed frequency bands from 4 to 13 GHz and provides up to 4 Gbps aggregated Ethernet traffic.

Migration to all-IP

As operators are continuously pressured to provide more and more bandwidth, they look for cost-effective ways to move to all-packet transmission while still maintaining legacy TDM services. This requires smart and flexible solutions that would reduce hardware upgrades to a minimum yet successfully bring IP to the network. Evolution Long Haul is a highly modular and flexible system designed to work in SDH/SONET, hybrid and all-IP/Ethernet modes, where only a simple change of interfaces is required to achieve the desired configuration.

Long Haul – Where expertise matters

Designing a backbone network is not only about selecting the right hardware. Creating a reliable, flexible and future-ready backbone requires a high level of expertise gained through years of hands-on experience. Ceragon pioneered SDH Long Haul radio as early as 1993 and is now the most experienced microwave, long-distance networking provider in the industry. Whatever the challenge your network poses, be it high-density urban areas, links over water or harsh weather conditions, you can rely on Ceragon’s experienced field engineering professionals and our tailored turnkey approach
