FibeAir IP-20C-HP

Rev C | July 2019

ETSI Version
 High-power, all-outdoor, all-IP multicore node
Ceragon’s FibeAir IP-20C-HP is a high-power version of Ceragon’s ground-breaking MultiCore FibeAir IP-20C, operating in the 6-11 GHz
bands and providing TX power of up to 35 dBm. FibeAir IP-20C-HP sets a new standard in microwave transmission, combining high TX
power with MultiCore radio technology, QPSK to 2048 QAM modulation, and line-of-sight (LoS) 4x4 MIMO in a compact, all-outdoor
design. IP-20C-HP represents a new generation of radio technology, capable of high bit rates and longer reach, and suitable for
diverse deployment scenarios.
