Dual Pole Radio Mount
Horizon systems can be configured with a Dual Pole Radio Mount (DPRM) to deliver an in-service scalable solution of up to 4 Gbps full duplex on a single antenna. The DPRM is mounted to a single antenna. Two radios are connected to the DPRM, one oriented horizontally and the other vertically polarized, to achieve the bandwidth doubling. DPRM optimizes a service provider’s footprint and reduces total network cost by reusing the antenna and tower space. Alternatively, DPRM can provide a redundancy option in load sharing or Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) configurations.
Power Split Radio Mount
Using a single antenna and link license, Horizon systems can be configured with a Power Split Radio Mount (PSRM) to provide 1+1 radio redundancy. The PSRM is mounted to a single antenna and two Horizon radios are connected to the PSRM, configured in the same polarization. Each radio is connected to the same modems using the UpMast Radio Switch (UMRS) to achieve equipment redundancy. This configuration provides increased redundancy with significant savings over a fully redundant link. In addition, this configuration is also useful for the reduction of mean time to repair in situations where radios and modems are installed in hard-to-climb places.
