Description

The Falcon-RX is an essential element in delivering on the promise of 5G. Through high capacity, low latency transport and high precision synchronization, the Falcon-RX enables 5G RAN operation at its optimal capacity, on both telecom and enterprise environments.
The Falcon-RX combines the best of breed of the Transport and Timing worlds, in a single powerful package. Both elements are critical for 5G fronthaul deployments, along with support for the latest O-RAN architectures and recommendations.
The Falcon-RX’s Timing toolbox includes a complete set of capabilities, including GNSS based PTP GM/BC/TC/OC (sub nanosecond accuracy, Class C/D performance), along with robust SyncE and other sync interfaces. The system’s timing is orchestrated via Fibrolan’s user friendly SyncCenter.
The Falcon-RX series is equipped with a total of 20xSFP+/SFP28 ports, with configurable port setup for up to 200Gbps/FDX (400Gbps switch fabric capacity). All ports can operate at full wire speed, at any packet size (including Jumbo frames).
The Falcon-RX offers advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features including classification and mapping based on layer 1 through layer 4 attributes, port and queue policing and shaping, with highly flexible scheduling schemes.
