Product Description

The Advantage series are available in three different models to meet your specific ODU requirements.

Advantage P
The Advantage P model is designed to be a very effective ODU solution. The product is ideal for PDH applications utilizing
modulation schemes; QPSK, and 16 to 32 QAM. Frequencies available from 6-26GHz, with RF channel bandwidths up to
30MHz. High standard transmit power level up to +27dBm for certain frequency bands.

Advantage SP
The Advantage SP model uses highly advanced ODU technology. The product is designed for PDH, SDH and wireless
broadband applications, utilizing modulation schemes; QPSK, and 16 to 256QAM, frequencies available from 6-26GHz,
and RF channel bandwidths up to 56MHz. High standard transmit power levels with up to +27dBm for certain frequency
bands.

Advantage SP+
The Advantage SP+ model uses the same highly advanced ODU technology as the Wavelab SP, plus an extended
performance capability. Extended transmit power levels up to +30dBm for certain frequency bands.

z Advantage SP and SP+ series ODUs have up to 30 MHz RF channel bandwidth on standard models. Both are available
in wideband option; programmable channel BW filtering.
z Fine synthesizer step option; 125KHz step size available on some models.
