MICROWAVE AND OPTICAL TRANSMISSION
"Not true" is the tag for which experienced stubborn engineers fully have the right to attach to the wide spread hype that "IP communications have wiped out everything else". We at Iskra are deeply involved in IP solutions as well as in traditional industrial environments. Therefore we know very well in which cases off the shelf IP technology can replace traditional synchronous communications and in which cases it simply can not.

Whenever it comes to microwave data transmission along gas pipes in Siberian ice, optical systems along railway tracks, industrial process control, public utilities' networks, reliable microwave rings, "99.999%" operators' networks, nuclear power plant control, and similar, we have an answer ready.

Withought compromising the industrial reliability we are known for, we are adapting to the requirements of the changing times. Our transmission systems constantly evolve. Ethernet interfaces are our standard and yet our equipment fully relies on all legacy interfaces. We cover the full range from E1, E3, STM-1, STM-4, STM-16, 10/100/1000 Ethernet to xWDM. Both, on optical and microwave systems. Though synchronous, the platforms boast full linux operating system onboard, advanced web based management tools, even Engineering Order Wire SIP VoIP inband telephony with advanced distributed soft-switch redundancy algorithms. Nobody else has it.

No, we have not fallen behind the IP era. Instead, we are leading it upon sound foundations of proven industrial technology.

Yet, we are looking into the future. Our newest family of SparkWave GE series is transforming into packet transmission and evolving into Adaptive Code Modulation to provide bandwidth "breathing" instead of transmission failures. We are after QoS features and IP stack onboard microwave nodes to provide operators with state-of-the-art transmission for the latest advances in mobile networking.
