Feature & BenefitOverview



page 20

Native TDM and Native Ethernet

11+54.92.4

Feature Benefit

NativeTDM

> Available channel bandwidth carries user traffic – not overhead – thus conserving spectrum

> When T1/E1 ports are added, TDM throughput is traded bit-for-

bit for Ethernet throughput and vice versa, so rated throughputalways equals user-available throughput

> Delivers low and consistent latency performance regardless of

IP traffic behavior, including bursts

> Ensures TDM timing is maintained and delay is minimized inmulti-hop connections

NativeEthernet

> Zero latency introduction ensures the highest performance IPtransport over the radio link

VariableAllocation

> Protects value of investment by supporting both current andfuture traffic allocation splits between TDM and Ethernet
