MINI-LINK 6366 Direct Mount, ML6366 All-outdoor baseband node, supporting up to 2 directions with 1+0/1+1/2+0/2x(1+0) configurat

MINI-LINK 6366

Building an efficient microwave backhaul network with end-to-end performance in mind; requires high node capacity, compact and modular building practice and advanced packet functionality. The microwave nodes also need to be capable of handling single hops as well as advanced hub sites for larger networks. By combining MINI-LINK outdoor units and indoor units, all network scenarios are supported with superior performance and lowest possible cost of ownership.

High capacity outdoor node

A network node for the future requires high node capacity which means high capacity for switch, radio links and interfaces. MINI-LINK 6366 is a packet only all-outdoor node with a switch capacity of 9.5 Gbps with multiple 1/2.5 Gbps interfaces. The node supports radio link up to 2.5Gbps with high modulation of 4096 QAM, wide channels up to 112/125 MHz supporting L3 VPN's, which makes it well positioned on the road to 5G.LINK 6600, the radio units, antennas, and cabling can be reused.

Flexible and modular building practice

MINI-LINK 6366 is a product for all-outdoor deployments together with one or two MINI-LINK 6363 radio(s). MINI-LINK 6366 also offers a flexibility to handle different site characteristics. Mount everything direct to the antenna or use a split-mount deployment where MINI-LINK 6366 is placed closer to ground while MINI-LINK 6363 radio(-s) are mounted to the antenna. Build 1+0, 1+1 and 2+0 configurations with the same building blocks for 6 to 80 GHz or combine two different frequency bands for a Multi-Band Booster configuration.

Network scenarios

MINI-LINK 6366 is a packet only all-outdoor node for hops or thanks to its hop compatibility an all-outdoor end node to MINI-LINK TN or MINI-LINK 6600 nodes.

Advanced packet handling

A microwave network node needs to have integrated Ethernet Switching functionality, reducing the cost and complexity by not needing external equipment. Hierarchical QoS enables sharing of networks between several operators with multiple technologies. The node supports L3 VPN using IP/MPLS.
