Overview

The Orion IPL8141TX IP Core is a member of Tera-Pass’ product line for the optical infrastructure required to support cellular traffic. Orion IPL8141TX IP Cores are optimized for Mobile Front-Haul (MFH) networks.

Orion IPL8141TX OTN processors implement the ITU-T SG15 Q.11 multiplexing method for the transport of CPRI signals over OTN bearers. This scheme optimizes the transport of CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) signals between RRH (Remote Radio Head) and centralized BBU (Base Band Unit) sites. The IPL8141TX includes optional Forward Error Correction (FEC) and supports CPRI signals Option 7, 8 and 9.

Tera-Pass’ Orion IPL8141TX Processors have been optimized for the effective transport of CPRI signals over fiber networks between RRH and BBU sites. An Orion IPL8141TX OTN processor maps 4 CPRI-7/8/9 signals into 4 OPU2r containers that are transported over either 12.6Gbps OTU2r or 11.8Gbps OTU2r No FEC signals.

Tera-Pass develops advanced Optical Transport Network (OTN) processors that enable Network Equipment (NE) vendors to build optimized, resilient and cost-effective wireline and wireless access and metro systems. Tera-Pass offers a unique combination of both ASIC (Apodis) and IP Core (Gemini, Zephyr, Orion, Scorpion) based product families, enabling its Network Equipment (NE) vendors customers to select the most optimal solution for their needs. The various members of each product family are designed bearing in mind software and hardware commonality, simplifying the transition from one family member to another. Apodis OTN processors are general-purpose devices addressing capacities in the range of 10G-40G. Gemini and Zephyr IP Cores address access and premium services applications. Orion IP Cores address the transport of CPRI signals over OTU2r bearers. Orion IP Cores implement a novel ITU-T endorsed OTN technology that provides a unique solution for the transport of CPRI 4G signals over optical links. Scorpion IP Cores address the transport of Client Services over OSU (Optical Service Units) variable bandwidth containers, following the evolution of the relevant ITU-T standards. Scorpion processors support advanced features such as hitless bandwidth adjustment of the OSUs allocated for the transport of packet-based Client Services. Along with its various product families of OTN processors, Tera-Pass also offers an extensive range of design-support tools and services, intended to simplify and ease the integration of Tera-Pass’ products with our customers’ software and hardware systems.

Part 2: Opening the 5G Radio Interface

Carriers are now deploying 5G across the globe driven by the need to keep up with relentless mobile data growth. 5G New Radio (NR) operates at higher frequencies to increase bandwidth, but at the expense of range. There will therefore be a need for a much larger number of 5G RUs to provide the same coverage. The availability of cost-effective, reliable and open 5G radio units is therefore critical.

How 224G SerDes Unifies Today’s AI Fabrics

AI system architects no longer face a binary choice between scale-up and scale-out fabrics. Modern AI platforms require both to be executed efficiently, predictably, and within aggressive schedules. The shift lies in how risk is managed across these domains.
