Tracer Microwave Dual T1 Mastmount
The ADTRAN Tracer is an unlicensed digital microwave radio that uses spread spectrum
technology to provide two, independent T1 communication links. As authorized under part
15.247 of the FCC Rules, Tracer operates in the 2.4 - 2.4835 GHz industrial, scientific,
and medical (ISM) band.
The Tracer mast-mounted system is composed of two primary hardware elements; a Baseband
Processor (BBP) and a Radio-Frequency Converter (RFC). To minimize transmission line loss
at 2.4 GHz, the weatherproof RFC may be mast mounted up to 350 feet from the Baseband
Processor, using a single, RG-8 size coax. All signaling and power functions between the
Baseband Processor and RFC are provided over this single coax connection.
Tracer transports two T1 digital signals in any framing or line code format and
provides two DS1/DSX-1 interfaces. A separate maintenance channel is embedded in the
Tracer data stream, providing remote configuration and monitoring functions. The
maintenance channel is provided without impacting the T1 capacity.
By using the latest technology and incorporating ADTRAN's ISO 9001 manufacturing
processes, ADTRAN has created Tracer to provide the highest levels of reliability and
durability. As a result, Tracer is backed by an industry-leading standard 5 year warranty
and ADTRAN's outstanding 24-hour technical support.
