IDU ES Link
Depending on the required Ethernet capacity, capacity upgrade path, frequency
band and Tx power, IDU ES can be used with the ODU 300ep or ODU 300hp.
The IDU ES includes a Layer 2 switch to support four customer 10/100base-T
ports, two over-air transport channels and comprehensive VLAN and QoS
options.
Depending on the ODU and required capacity, over-air channel bandwidths are
selected using modulation options from QPSK to 256 QAM.
Over-air capacity can be dedicated to Ethernet or to Ethernet and up to 8xE1 or
8xDS1 wayside channels.
Base capacity licences apply, with access to the higher capacities provided by an
additional software-keyed license.
• For information on capacity, bandwidth, and Ethernet and wayside payload
options refer to IDU ES Capacity and Bandwidth Options on page 2-11.
• For information on license operation and license steps, refer to IDU ES License
on page 4-3 in Volume IV.
IDU ES may be used in single-link and networked applications, and can be
over-air interfaced to 9500 MXC Node comprising the INU, DAC ES or DAC
GE, DAC 4x/16x, and ODU 300.
