Chapter 2:
PTP 820C HP Overview
PTP 820C HP combines high TX power of up to 35 dBm with MultiCore radio technology, QPSK to 2048
QAM modulation, and line-of-sight (LoS) 4x4 MIMO in a compact, all-outdoor design.
PTP 820C HP is easily and quickly deployable compared with fiber, enabling operators to achieve faster
time to new revenue streams, lower total cost of ownership, and long-term peace of mind.
PTP 820C HP’s MultiCore architecture enables operators to start with a single core with the option of
enabling the second core remotely when network capacity requirements increase.
The 4x4 LoS MIMO feature adds yet another element of scalability, enabling operators to quadruple
capability with the addition of a single PTP 820C HP unit and antenna at each end of the link while utilizing
the same exact frequency channel with no network replanning.
PTP 820C HP can be used with wide diplexer-based branching, enabling direct mount installation.
Diplexers can be used for direct mount configurations of up to 4+0.
PTP 820C HP can also be used with channel filter-based branching, enabling configurations of up to 8+0
per polarization in remote mount and all-indoor configurations.
To maximize operational flexibility, both diplexers and channel filters are provided separately for the radio
units, enabling the diplexers or filters to be changed in the field with minimal downtime and no risk of
impairing the unit’s sealing.
To maximize operational flexibility, both diplexer covers and outdoor circulator units (OCUs) are provided
separately from the radio units, enabling the diplexer covers or OCUs to be changed in the field with
minimal downtime and no risk of impairing the RFU’s sealing.
