5e.
Q: What are the BER values expected in the WinLink™ 1000
link?
A: 10-11 (according to BER sensitivity threshold)
Q: Does WinLink™ 1000 use DSSS technique?
A: No, WinLink™ 1000 uses the advanced OFDM technique.
Q: What are the advantages of the Winlink™ 1000 solution
over other possible alternatives (e.g., wireline, wireless, etc.)?

sites in order to change the configuration.
• Easy migration between transmission channels.
• Backup option – backup and restore using .ini files.
• Very light ODU (1.5 kg). Low wind-loading
• No RF loss between IDU and ODU. Smaller antennas can be
used
• Robust Air Interface Layer 2 ARQ insures “error-free” Ethernet
service even in harsh conditions. Retransmit mechanism for
TDM ensures low BER.
• Integrated E1/T1 and Ethernet radio over one single product.
• Supports simultaneous Voice and Data applications with a
single radio – no need for external mediation device.
• Smooth migration to VoIP applications.
• Carrier class compliant with ITU standards for E1 and T1.
• Low and constant TDM latency (8 msec).
• Extremely accurate recovered clock low cost replacement to
PDH radios.
