Ericsson MINI-LINK microwave solutions are set to be deployed by Russian communications service provider МТS across several regions of Russia as part of the development of its converged transport network.

Solutions include the high-speed MINI-LINK 6000 family with distributed architecture, as well as the MINI-LINK 6366 module solution. They will be deployed in the Central, Far Eastern, Siberian and Southern Federal Districts of Russia.

Anatoly Iliyaich, Eastern Europe and Central Asia VP Networks, Ericsson, says: “Ericsson equipment is built-to-last and ensures compatibility and continuity of product families of different generations- This will allow MTS to reduce CAPEX and OPEX during the construction and expansion of microwave networks. Developing these networks will become possible thanks to the modernization of the MTS converged transport network using the MINI-LINK 6000 family’s functionalities, which will improve the quality of services for MTS subscribers.”

Ericsson Radio System

Ericsson Radio System enables smooth, fast and cost-effective migration from 4G to 5G, allowing operators to launch the new technology and grow 5G coverage fast.

Ericsson Radio System comprises hardware, software and services for radio, RAN Compute, antenna system, transport, power, enclosure and site solutions– all run by a common management system. It fits all site types and traffic scenarios, even as networks grow in scale and complexity.

Communication Service Providers are seeking solutions that support traffic growth as well as emerging use cases and business opportunities. Helping them to embrace these challenges and opportunities, Ericsson 5G radio access technologies will provide the infrastructure needed to support the world’s growing demand for high-bandwidth connections and support the real-time, high-reliability communication requirements of mission-critical applications.

The specification of 5G will also include the development of a new flexible air interface, New Radio (NR) which will target high-bandwidth and high-traffic-usage scenarios, as well as new scenarios that involve mission-critical and real-time communications with extreme requirements in terms of latency and reliability.
