Nera's microwave radio networks solutions
have several clear advantages over traditional options. They
are faster to plan and install than fibre optic cable. Radio
networks have unparalleled rollout speed, and lower
installation and lifetime costs. They are compact, and
scalable since they are easily reconfigured and simple to
upgrade.
Nera's total wireless access solutions provide coverage for
all network aspects. Point-to-point (PtP) transmission
options deliver backbone services, and economical Access
services are supplied by connecting base stations.
High-capacity microwave solutions solve Access backhaul
needs by delivering upgradeability and the Last mile
challenge can be met by PtP or Point-to-Multipoint access
offerings.

NETMASTER
Network Management System
NetMaster
is a comprehensive Network Management System offering centralized
operation and maintenance capability for the complete range of network
elements in the Nera product portfolio, consisting of all Microwave
Radios, OEM and 3rd party products. NetMaster is built on
state-of-the-art technology as a scalable, cross-platform system that
supports a distributed network architecture.
NetMaster provides the following network management
functionality:
- Fault Management
- Configuration Management
- Performance Monitoring
- Security Management
- Graphical User Interface with Internationalization
- Network Topology using Perspectives and Domains
- Automatic Network Element Discovery
- HW and SW Inventory
- Software Download jobs
- Northbound interface to higher order OSS

LOWER
COSTS - NOW AND IN THE FUTURE
Significant saving in network deployment and operation are achieved
by the use of one common hardware platform across the whole network.
Furthermore, planning and installation activities are simplified due to
mainstream mechanical design and configuration, and costs for inventory
and maintenance are minimized.
Increased reliability - the total life-cycle cost for the Evolution
series is minimized by use of high-level integration and a simplified
architecture; as a result, high Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) as well
as reduction in potential revenue loss due to outages and lower OPEX can
be achieved.
Increased flexibility - Transmission is scalable in multiple directions
from a single radio node which allows the operator to explore various
network topologies such as ring, chain/star and mesh - all with the
same, universal type of equipment. User selectable modulation rates from
QPSK to 128 state / multi-dimensional and provides the operator with a
choice between system gain and lower licensing fees. Seamless
integration between PDH and SDH enables site selectable configuration
from 4E1/T1 to 3+1 STM-1/ OC-3 - you pay as you grow.
FREEDOM - SOFTWARE DEFINED SCALABILITY
The new Evolution Series offers operators the freedom to change
established backhaul bandwidth/capacity, quickly and easily under
software control. No physical replacements are necessary. Upgrades can
be done instantly, and remotely - you can redefine the configuration by
simply upgrading the licence by means of software - you pay as you grow.
These features allow the operator to minimize licensing cost and the
resources spent on ensuring mobile network performance. They also enable
the operator to focus more on business issues such as attracting
additional customers and revenue rather than operational barriers to
growth.
CONTROL - OPTIMUM MONITORING
Configure. Manage. Monitor. NetMaster is the network management system
that keeps it all at your fingertips. This powerful multiplatform
application features an intuitive and user friendly GUI. It provides
automatic network discovery and configuration, fault management with
alarm correlation, trouble ticketing and performance management; all by
the same licence principle as the rest of the Evolution Series - you pay
as you grow.
