  1. Broadband Fixed Wireless Field of Dreams?, Or The World Series? Chuck Kissner Chairman, DMC Stratex Networks

  2. Broadband Fixed Wireless • Why did our industry miss the target? • What did we learn? • What can we do for our customers?

  3. The Golden Opportunity? MANY FEW Total Number ofMed-Large Comm’l Buildings Number of BuildingsDirectly Reached by Fiber

  4. 1996 – “It Was A Very Good Year” • Little Direct Fiber Access • T-1 Rates Justified $10K Wireless Links • 38 GHz Spectrum • Technology And Faith Solves All

  5. Our Industry’s Response • Revive an Old Technique • Point-to-Multipoint • Millimeter Bands • Make Promises • Low Cost • Easy Deployment • Efficient Spectrum Usage • Faith and Technology

  6. Real World Topography Source: Winstar

  7. Line of Sight Issues

  8. PTP Point-to-Point String/Star Shared Mesh Ring Structure Per Node* Current 45-155Mbps Future 45-622Mbps * Node: Building, Subscriber, or UMTS access point New and Old Wireless Architectures Deliver Fiber Speed POP Fiber POP Per Node* Current 45-465Mbps Future 45Mbps-1.9Gbps

  9. Fiber-Like Wireless Ring Structure Remote Base Stations Remote Base Stations Remote Base Stations

  10. Paul’s Request to Us Lowest Cost of • Equipment (on a cost per MBIT basis) • OC-3 links loaded • Installation • One install serving multiple customers • Ongoing operation • All on net

  11. Real Solutions – What Can Industry Offer? • Cost-effective High Capacity • Customer Trend • Shared and Dedicated 45 Mbps to OC-12 • Star, Trunk, Ring Network Configurations • Modular Capacity Chunks T1 and up • In-Building Interface and Distribution • Proactive Network Management • Multiple Access Over-the-Air • Feature of High Capacity Systems • Probably lower frequencies • Maybe optical

  12. Copper BBW Photonics 10 - 100x 500 - 1mm x 1x Fiber High & Ultra Hi-Cap Point-to-Point PTP PMP Point MMDS DSL / Cable Modem 100 1 2 20 40 200 600 0 kbps Mbps Mbps Mbps Mbps Mbps Mbps Wireless – Filling the Bandwidth Gap Sources: FBW & DMC Stratex Networks
