Cisco MWR 1941-DC-A Mobile Wireless Edge Router

The Cisco MWR 1941-DC-A Mobile Wireless Edge Router is a new cell-site access platform specifically designed to optimize, aggregate, and transport mixed-generation radio access networks (RANs) and cell-site operations traffic.

• Optimized RAN transport over IPAggregate and transparently transport mixed-generation (2G, 3G, 4G) digital voice and data calls over the existing RAN backhaul network via IP. Optimize over the backhaul network to reduce the amount of backhaul bandwidth consumed by as much as 50 percent and often much more, thereby reducing existing backhaul transmission costs and enabling more cost-efficient deployment of new RAN technologies. The backhaul network is typically the largest operational expense in the mobile operator’s network
• Alternative RAN backhaulThe IP-enabled RAN allows for a variety of backhaul transport media enabling higher-capacity and lower-cost alternative RAN transport networks, such as DSL, IEEE 802.16, and metro Ethernet. Higher-speed broadband backhaul such as DSL and metro Ethernet is ideally suited for transport of HSDPA data traffic.

The Cisco MWR 1941-DC-A enables a variety of RAN solutions by extending cell-site IP connectivity to Global System for Mobile Communications/General Packet Radio System/Enhanced Data for Global Evolution (GSM/GPRS/EDGE) base transceiver stations (BTSs) and UMTS/HSDPA NodeB equipment, and other telemetry and ancillary cell-site equipment.
