Morpheus II

70-90GHz

Compact, ODU-ready E-band transceiver with enhanced Tx performance

Morpheus II modules are designed for easy incorporation into ODUs for rapid time to market with minimal customer engineering resource. They are a drop-in mmWave solution for ultra-high-capacity wireless links.

E-Band transceiver modules (71 – 76GHz and 81 – 86 GHz) are used as an easily deployable alternative to fibre optics in mobile backhaul applications. The transceiver module contains all the transmit and receive functions necessary for the RF section of an E-Band radio link, and provides a simple connection to a high data rate modem. Filtronic’s transceiver modules are designed for easy incorporation into outdoor units, giving original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) the advantage of a rapid time-to-market while requiring minimal engineering resource. Their high performance makes them ideal for high-density urban environments as well as rural locations. In addition, their compact form factor makes them suitable for use in all types of mmWave XHaul applications, and their readily reconfigurable architecture also provides the ideal basis from which to develop systems for application in high throughput satellites and High Altitude Pseudo-Satellites (HAPS).

    Product description

    Morpheus II E-Band transceiver modules provide a turn-key solution for carrier grade mobile XHaul applications. Each module contains all the transmit and receive functions necessary for the RF section of an E-Band link and provides a simple connection to a high data rate full duplex modem. The integrated diplexer connects directly to an antenna of choice via a standard WR12 interface. Internal, low phase noise VCOs are settable via an SPI interface in 31.25MHz steps to support ECC ITU channel arrangements.

    • Proven system performance — 10 Gbps demonstrated with spectral efficient 256QAM modulation.
    • Field proven technology — tens of thousands of Filtronic millimetre wave transceivers deployed worldwide.

    Morpheus II modules are designed for easy incorporation into ODUs for rapid time to market with minimal customer engineering resource.
