Application Examples 

4E1 + Ethernet with LigoPTP 24 FODU 

 

LigoPTP 24 is a perfect tool for replacing the existing low capacity E1 radio system by preserving 
E1 connectivity where needed and adding high capacity Ethernet channel for future use, perfect 
for overlaying GSM network with 3G/WiMax and LTE (Long Term Evolution) services; 

 

Suitable for transition from TDM to Ethernet based networks; 

 

LigoPTP 24 FODU supports SNMP protocol for NMS. 

 

 

 

Low Power Active Repeater with LigoPTP 24 FODU 

 

Extends network to non line-of-sight locations; 

 

Ideal for crossing mountains and interconnecting Ethernet networks; 

 

Low power consumption allows the use of battery backed alternative power sources like solar 
panel and small wind turbine for off-grid remote sites.
