TR TSY 000752 : ISSUE 1

Contains Bellcore's view of the proposed generic requirements and objectives for digital microwave radio systems with DS3 interfaces intended for use by Bellcore Client Companies (BCCs). The particular electrical and physical requirements and objectives discussed in this document are based on Bellcore's assessment of BCC maintenance and operating requirements, transmission objectives, equipment and design standards, and realizable performance to meet typical BCC needs. The function of the microwave digital radio system in the 4GHz, 6GHz and 11GHz common carrier bands considered in this TR is to reliably relay two or more DS3 signals (44.7436 Mb/s) between DS3 cross-connects.
