14 IntelliMax MB-2000 AOptix is developing a new category of wireless products to support 4G mobile backhaul. The IntelliMax product series achieves a major breakthrough in rate & reach with the introduction of the MB-2000:» Industry first 2 Gbps CIR with channel BW capability to 10 Gbps» Longest distance coverage for multi-gigabit wireless solutions» Lowest cost/gbit/km solution for Ethernet based wireless transport This ultra high end solution is made possible with the introduction of 3 key proprietary technologies: Active Beam Steering (ABS) Compensates for Tower Twist & Sway Advanced Wavelength Diversity (AWD) Mitigates weather disturbances Dynamic Packet Resourcing (DPR) Ensures error free packets

15 Key Technologies AOptix is setting out to eliminate the bandwidth bottleneck in mobile backhaul. The solution requires a 2 Gbps CIR with planned channel BW scalable to 10 Gbps over distances up to 10km with availability. These requirements demand a new category of wireless capability, and that s exactly what AOptix is offering. IntelliMax future proofs networks with AOptix proprietary technologies: Active Beam Steering (ABS) Advanced Wavelength Diversity (AWD) Dynamic Packet Resourcing (DPR) Compensates ±3 o Twist & Sway Reduced tower fees Enables use of narrow beams Mitigates weather disturbances Enables maximum distances Channel BW scalable to 10 Gbps Ensures error free packets Interleaves Identical data streams Adds < 1 millisecond latency

16 Active Beam Steering (ABS) Compensates for Heavy Wind / Sun Loading / Ice & Snow Build-up With Active Beam Steering (ABS) Without Active Beam Steering (ABS) Advanced Beam Steering No matter what causes the tower to move IntelliMax is always centered on target! Compensates for tower twist & sway up to ±3 to enable precise pointing of highly collimated laser and MMW beams for high link margin (and hence longer distance links) Compensates for heavy wind, sun loading and ice/snow build up Reduces Total Cost of Ownership Can be positioned on worst tower locations for a lower monthly fee Opens up more usable space on towers and reduces the need to build additional infrastructure ABS enables deployment on Monopole and Lattice towers

17 Advanced Wavelength Diversity (AWD) Longer distance / Less Equipment / Fewer Towers: Lower Cost 1 MB-2000 Link 3 MMW Radio Links This unique offering of real-time spectrum diversity compensates for weather disturbances and enables never before multi-gigabit data rates covering distances up to 10km. 1) Heavy Rain: l MMW size of rain drops Lasercom up (low attenuation) MMW down (high attenuation) 2) Heavy Fog: l optical size of fog particles Lasercom down (high attenuation) Whether you need 3 9 s, 4 9 s or 5 9 s MB-2000 will send 2 Gbps 3x the distance! MMW up (low attenuation) AWD enables high availability, long distance wireless links in all weather conditions

18 Dynamic Packet Resourcing (DPR) Interleaves 2 Gbps of Data on Diverse Wavelengths for Error Free Packets Identical Data Streams on Diverse Wavelengths Proprietary intelligent algorithms provide Dynamic Packet Resourcing (DPR), eliminating the need for advanced FEC for low latency applications DPR module generates identical data streams on diverse wavelengths and interleaves them on the other end to provide an unmatched first level assurance of error free packets Advanced FEC provides a higher level of robustness when higher latencies can be tolerated When the lowest BER matters... IntelliMax has the resources! DPR enables first level assurance of error free packets
