The BelAir Vision
• Wireless Multi-Service Network
 Wi-Fi, WiMAX, Cellular, WiBro, Flarion, etc Air Interfaces
 Common IP Architecture
 IMS / UMA for service transparency
 Voice, Video and Data
 For Service Providers, Government and Enterprises
• Wireless Mesh is a Key Enabling Technology
 Practical: Small, pole mounted unit
 Capacity: Scales to hundreds Mbps / sqmile and beyond
 Reliability: Re-route, Load Balance
 Low Opex: Massive Reduction in Transmission Cost
 Licensed Spectrum Multiplier: Pico Cell Deployment

BelAir’s MicroCells Deliver the
Service Vision
• Microcells deliver high capacity
 Hundreds of Erlangs and Thousands of subscribers per sq
mile
• Microcells ‘accelerate’ spectrum utilisation
 >5 times more efficient spectrum re-use
• Microcells deliver broadband data
 Hundreds of Mbps per sq mile
• But they have been limited by traditional
Backhaul costs
• Using BelAir’s multi service node with
integrated wireless access and backhaul
 Can combine
• Cellular in licensed band
• VoIP over Wi-Fi
• High speed Data Access
• Cellular BTS backhaul
 On one system !
• Multimode phones and Softclients enable
service delivery to any platform seamlessly

La Palmilla Resort, Mexico
• 172-room beachside resort includes world class golf course, several
restaurants, and a spa
• 7 BelAir200 and 9 BelAir100 units provide a broadband wireless
network for the entire resort
• Network can now be accessed from anywhere on the in the hotel or on
the resort grounds.

Summary
• BelAir mesh solves the backhaul problem that
have restricted the deployment of outdoor picocells
• BelAir currently delivers CellSite BTS backhaul
Applications over wireless mesh
 IP interfaces (electrical and optical)
 TDM interfaces (Quad E1)
 Co-located MicroCell
 Options to integrate MicroCell
• Integrated pico-cell based on IP transport is the
next step
 Pure IP transport more efficient
 Integrated picocell is smaller
 More aesthetically pleasing
