Technical specifications

All equipment specifications are subject to change without prior notice.

Product descriptionSAF Tehnika is offering 2 modifications of radio in CFM product family - LM and L4.

The LM Universal Radio Unit is designed for operation at fixed bit rates of 8, 16 or 34 Mbps andis available in 13, 15, 18, 23 GHz frequency band.

The L4 Radio Unit is designed for operation at fixed bit rate of 4 Mbps and is available in 13, 15,and 23 GHz frequency band. L4 radio is low cost modification of universal CFM LM series radioand is appropriate for low capacity economical applications.

New radio is characterized by ease of installation thanks to radio's lightweight and compactdesign. It provides many features making it a perfect building block in any network:• full band width coverage with the single radio for 13, 15 and 23 GHz versions, 2 subbands for

18 GHz;• wide tuning range of Tx signal level (from –10 dBm to +20 dBm) making the radio suitable for

short, midrange and long link installations;• wide choice of Indoor Units offering fine tuned combinations of capacity and interfaces

for specific applications. IDUs are providing E1, V.35 and 10, 10/100 Ethernet ports;• convenient and efficient management system provided through multiple interfaces of the

Indoor Units, LCD display/keypad, RS-232 terminal port, Ethernet port;• radio is offered with comprehensive choice of adapted antennas: 25 cm Lens-Horn, 30 cm, 60 cm and 120 cm parabolic. All the antennas provide the capability to mount the radio

directly on antenna without any accessories;• the change of radio capacity is performed via easy and convenient change of capacity/interface

specific Indoor Units.

CFM features a fully synthesized transceiver making frequency setup or changes in the field asimple task. CFM utilizes four level frequency shift keying (4FSK) modulation.A calibrated AGC monitoring point is included on the Outdoor Unit for connection of multimeterduring antenna alignment. The ODU unit is well protected by its metal case and weather-EMCsealing thus providing basis for reliable operation under any weather conditions.

CFM is safe and economical digital microwave radio link system thatprovides wireless point-to-point channels for digitized voice anddata communications in both metropolitan and rural areas betweensites up to 40 km apart. Typical applications include PABX trunkconnectivity, private combined data and voice networks, cellularnetworks and medium speed access to backbone networks of providersof data services. CFM is available with 4, 8, 16 or 34 Mbps FullDuplex traffic capacity. In hands of professional user and installerCFM Microwave Radio provides extremely high data channel quality,which is as high as good quality cooper or fiber cable channels. It ischaracterized by ultra low error rates and very high channel stability.

Typical installation site consists of the following components: IndoorUnit (IDU), Outdoor Unit (ODU), antenna, coaxial cable connectingIDU and the ODU and power supply unit providing electric currentfor the equipment (mounted indoors). CFM product line offers severalIndoor Units for various business requirements.

The CFM management system utilizes Web, SNMP and Telnet/Terminalinterfaces, it is based on TCP/IP protocol as a transport mechanism formanagement information traffic.

The CFM radio (ODU) is fully software controlled device. ODU could be configuredfrom any of Indoor Units in multiple ways employing following tools of themanagement system:• LCD display and keypad of the Indoor Unit;• terminal attached to the serial port of the IDU;• Telnet terminal over TCP/IP channel (via Ethernet or service channel to far

end terminal).

ODU could be monitored via all aforementioned interfaces plus:• from Web page (over TCP/IP channel, via Ethernet or service channel to far

end terminal);• using SNMP (over TCP/IP channel, via Ethernet or service channel to far end

terminal).

The ODU configuration information is stored in ODU management controller.
