IP-50S – Universal microwave radio for all deployment scenarios

Designed with innovation in mind, the IP-50S features high capacity of up to 2Gbps over a single carrier, while combining all the benefits of disaggregated wireless backhaul. A compact, cost-optimized universal radio, Ceragon’s IP-50S considerably simplifies installation time and efforts on site to further

accelerate the deployment of wireless broadband networks in rural and suburban areas.

The IP-50S can be deployed as a standalone all-outdoor radio or used as an upgrade path to achieve the highest possible capacity of any existing Ceragon or third-party link by utilizing Ceragon’s unique layer-1 carrier bonding. Ceragon’s unique multiband engine allows the combination of any two microwave channels over the air, and significantly enhances the link’s performance by optimizing traffic distribution between the two carriers. Retaining the same network configuration and cabling while upgrading existing links presents additional benefits to mobile operators and enables them to lower total cost of ownership.

Supported channel bandwidth up to 224MHz and modulation up to 4096QAM at traditional higher bands allow IP-50S to operate with transmission rates up to 2.0 Gbps for 1+0 configuration. The radio’s

compact form factor and optional integrated flat-panel antenna significantly minimize your sites’ physical footprint, enabling prompt deployment, faster time to market, and enhanced operational efficiency.
