Eclipse™ Packet Node
Enabling the 4G mobile broadband future
Eclipse Packet Node is a transformational high-speed wireless transmission solution that enables the gradual migration to Ethernet, or all-IP, backhaul networks while simultaneously providing reliable continuity of existing legacy TDM-based services.
As the most advanced point-to-point microwave radio technology available, Eclipse Packet Node supports efficient hybrid native transport for both TDM and Ethernet traffic for cost-effective backhaul of 2G, 3G, WiMAX and LTE broadband data service deployments.
Eclipse Packet Node platform is a new packet-optimized, wireless nodal solution that provides the scalable capacity, IP network intelligence and key convergence features, all backed by a portfolio of lifecycle professional services.
Eclipse Packet Node is ready now for 4G/LTE while also protecting current revenue, leveraging existing network investments, driving down operational costs and paving the way to the future.
