Octopus SDR

Infnet’s latest SDR platform has been designed based on a Software-Defined Radio technology aimed at increasing link performance several-fold. Quanta 5 / Quanta 6 addressing challenges such as limited spectrum availability, growing interference challenges and demands for yet more capacity. Due to Octopus SDR platform Quanta 5 / Quanta 6 allow to bring new PHY, MAC and upper layer features via a firmware upgrade even for the units operating in the field.

Wireless device

An integrated wireless device contains the radio and networking electronics. Implemented in a robust all-weather metal enclosure, this equipment can be used to create point-to-point wireless links at distances in excess of 150 km (depending on country regulations, antenna types, interference, terrain, climate zones, etc.). There are several possible version of Quanta 5 / Quanta 6 solution enclosures:

Quanta 5

  • with integrated antenna 25 dBi;
  • with integrated antenna 23 dBi;
  • with integrated antenna 18 dBi;
  • with two N-type ports for an external antenna.

Quanta 6

  • with integrated antenna 25 dBi;
  • with integrated antenna 18 dBi;
  • with two N-type ports for an external antenna.

Grounding bolt 

For grounding the ODU to the supporting structure.

Gigabit Ethernet Port

RJ-45 socket for connecting to power supply and network via the PoE power supply. The network connection to the ODU is made via a 1000Base-T (Gigabit) Ethernet connection. Power is provided to the ODU over the 1000Base-T Ethernet connection using a standard IEEE 802.3at passive PoE power supply.

LED Panel

The "POWER" indicator has three possible colors:

  • Red light - the device is connected to the electricity mains,
  • Yellow light - a wired connection with a speed of 10/100 Mbps
  • Green light - a wired connection with a speed of 1000 Mbps. 

Other indicators are used to perform coarse antenna alignment. The more indicators are on, the better wireless connection is established. The blinking indicator means an intermediate state.
