Aprisa XE Digital Microwave Radio
Summary
APRISA XE is the flexible, functional answer to the low/medium capacity challenges in today’s wireless networks. Easy to use and customer configurable, Aprisa XE provides solutions from simple trunking applications to complete complex network designs.
APRISA XE is built small and powerful, with eight interface slots and up to 16 Mbps of capacity – ideal for use in busy network
sites where vertical rack space is limited.
Overview
The Aprisa XE digital access radio is a compact, powerful solution engineered with up to 17 Mbps capacity for larger-scale, low and medium-capacity linking applications. Eight interface slots integrated within the radio platform are available for the customer-configurable interface cards. They are easily configured using the embedded 4RF SuperVisor™ network element management application in a Java™ enabled web browser.
Complete specifications are available in the Aprisa XE Product Brochure PDF (244 KB).

Performance
The Aprisa product family has been designed with enhanced features to provide robust, reliable, ‘carrier-class’ transmission performance for long and challenging paths. Reed Solomon forward error correction (FEC) delivers exceptional data integrity while the multi-tap equalizers optimize Aprisa’s multi-path performance. Advanced digital filters provide optimum protection against adjacent channel interference, allowing you to maximize frequency reuse.
With frequency resources becoming limited and expensive we have maximized data throughput with support for 16, 32, 64 QAM and QPSK modulation.
Configuration and Management
Aprisa XE is simple to install and commission using the embedded
4RF SuperVisor network element management software. SuperVisor is an easy-to-use, web-server configuration application with SNMP and runs on any Java™ enabled web browser. The Java based intuitive application requires no training and assists network operators reduce integration and ongoing support costs.
Protection
The intelligent protection switch option supports MHSB and diversity configurations. Hitless and errorless receive switching provides the highest level of availability.
Compliance
Aprisa XE is designed to meet, and exceed relevant ETSI directives and be compliant to world standards. The platform design ensures that excellent C-I ratios are maintained particularly for congested radio sites.
