Intracom Telecom to unveil advanced E-Band radios at MWC Barcelona 2024

Intracom Telecom is set to reveal its latest E-Band radio products at the upcoming MWC Barcelona event taking place from February 26-29, 2024. At the company’s stand 7B44 in hall 7, the spotlight will be on its new, cutting-edge, UltraLink-GX80 Dual and UltraLink-GX80 Advanced radios, which introduce several feature enhancements, enabling communication service providers (CSPs) to meet the 5G-era transport requirements with unprecedented efficiency.

Using the success of the UltraLink-GX80, the new UltraLink-GX80 Dual and UltraLink-GX80 Advanced offer a 50% boost in spectral efficiency, reaching up to 15Gbit/s symmetrical for the widest supported channel size, while offering a high throughput over all other supported channel sizes. UltraLink-GX80 Dual aims to maximise spectral efficiency for channel sizes up to 1000MHz, offering bigger capacity of a single-core E-Band radio for the same channel size and deployment footprint, achieving conservation of precious E-Band spectrum and reduction of spectrum fees. Combined with a new compact dual polarisation antenna, which incorporates a low-loss micro-Orthomode Transducer (OMT), UltraLink-GX80 Dual forms a combination of similar size and weight as that of a single-core radio with single polarisation antenna.

Both radios support L1 Link Aggregation, enhancing compatibility with Intracom Telecom or third-party microwave radios for extended link-range or capacity upgrades.

John Tenidis, a marketing director of Intracom Telecom’s wireless solutions portfolio, saidThe UltraLink-GX80 Dual and UltraLink-GX80 Advanced are not merely two additions to our wireless network systems portfolio, they stand as a testament to our steadfast commitment to shaping the E-Band evolution. These products feature unparalleled advancements that propel our customers into a new era of ultra-high-capacity transmission.”
