M6424: TSN Switch

Data Sheet

  • • Solution to normalize operations across leading 3rd party RAN suppliers
    • Encapsulated CPRI traffic with Radio-over-Ethernet (RoE)
    • Significant performance and cost benefits
    • RAN with Ethernet services on common infrastructure

    Packet M6424 Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) Switch
    HFR Networks delivered the industry’s first RAN packet transport solution with our M-Series products. We are working with Tier-1 service providers in the United States to reduce deployment and operational costs while facilitating a fast and smooth evolution to 5G wireless technologies. The provided solutions mark an important industry milestone with standards-based packet fronthaul to normalize operations across radio solutions from leading 3rd party suppliers. The M6424 solution is purpose built to enable an advanced mobile network with nanosecond timing – connecting cellular radios using Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI) and eCPRI packet solutions supporting both traditional and cloud-based NFV mobile architectures. CPRI traffic is encapsulated using IEEE Radio-over-Ethernet (RoE) standards to realize significant performance and cost benefits. The M6424 offers investment protection across traditional CPRI radios and enhanced or eCPRI ones, including ORAN solutions. Operators are also migrating to a virtual RAN (vRAN) or cloud architecture which requires high performance xHaul with the economics of an M6424 TSN solution. The M6424 is an ORAN compliant solution with proven interoperability across a diverse set of RAN vendors to ensure operators can implement today while supporting a graceful network evolution over time.
