The Extreme Networks Mobile Backhaul E4G-200 Cell Site Router base station of the platform for reverse data transportation in mobile networks

The Extreme Networks E4G-200 is a scalable, carrier-grade cell site router designed for the demanding requirements of 4G mobile backhaul. With a shallow 10-inch depth and a ruggedized build, it is purpose-built for deployment in space-constrained and environmentally harsh cell site cabinets.

The E4G-200 enables mobile service providers to transition from legacy circuits to cost-effective Ethernet transport without sacrificing performance. It converts 2G/3G TDM connections into an Ethernet stream using standardized pseudowire techniques. Key to its 4G readiness is its hardware-based synchronization support (1588v2 and SyncE), which ensures the low-latency and high-timing accuracy required for LTE handover and signal integrity.

Key Specifications:

• Form Factor: Compact 1RU, 10” deep chassis.

• Environmental: Hardened for -40°C to +65°C operating temperatures.

• Connectivity: 12 active Gigabit Ethernet ports and up to 16 T1/E1 ports.

• Carrier Resilience: Rapid failover using EAPS (RFC 3619) or ITU-T G.8032 ERPS.

• Service Assurance: Integrated Ethernet OAM for simplified troubleshooting and SLA monitoring.
