Abstract

Point-to-multipoint front-haul networks provide shared access to edge sites, with capacity and routing constraints. The front-haul capacity can be multiplied by introducing several spatial feeds and means for associating input feed to specific remote units at the edge via switching/routing. The front-haul is empowered using our spatially-diverse point-to-multipoint architecture, and we compare several technologies for its implementation. We introduce subcarrier-level rapid networking and spatial-feeder enhancements with an innovative four-port optical interlacer, increasing capacity and networking flexibility.
