The widespread and growing use of microwave radio equipment in modern voice and data networks well deserves to be called a phenomenon of the last decade of the 20th century and beginning of the 21th century. The reasons behind that are numerous, like:

    increased demand for high data rate channels,
    growing pressure on operators to shorten the deployment times,
    the need to shorten time of the return on investments,
    changing demands for the services from the customers.

All of these issues are well solved using our wireless system CFM.

SAF CFM is a safe and affordable wireless communications point-to-point system operating over 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 18, 23, 26, 32 or 38 GHz frequency bands. It provides voice and data transmission in both urban and rural areas covering up to 60 km distance between two sites. CFM is available with 4, 8, 16 and 34 Mbps data transmission rate. According to the needs of your business, you may find it handy to use either CFM system's modular equipment - radio (ODU) and interface block (IDU) installed separately - or Full Outdoor Units (FODU) comprising IDU and ODU in one device. By choosing CFM family products with appropriate interface you can build transmission systems for voice (nxE1 or E3), data (Ethernet or V.35), as well as mixed solutions for voice and data combination (E1, Ethernet or V.35). The CFM-M-MUX is a modular multi-rate software configurable Indoor Unit operating at 8/16/34Mbps rates. It can be equipped with E1, V.35 and 10/100Base-T Ethernet interface modules.
