1. Introduction
1.1 Product Overview

This section provides a brief overview of the IP-20 products described in this
document. A separate Technical Description is available for each product,
providing a full description of the individual product and its specifications.
1.1.1 FibeAir IP-20C

Ceragon’s FibeAir IP-20C sets a new standard in microwave transmission,
combining MultiCore radio technology with QPSK to 2048 QAM modulation.
IP-20C breaks capacity barriers, offering a virtual fiber solution in licensed
frequency bands. Its versatility makes it ideal for a wide variety of cost-effective
deployment scenarios including macrocell backhaul, small-cell aggregation, and
emerging fronthaul applications.
IP-20C can deliver multi-Gbps capacity on a single frequency channel, setting a
new standard for efficient spectrum use. IP-20C’s unique MultiCore radio
architecture is based on an advanced parallel radio processing engine, built
around Ceragon’s in-house chipsets. The result is a superior radio
performance with reduced power consumption and form-factor.
The IP-20C services model is premised on supporting the standard MEF
services (MEF 6, 10), and builds upon this support by the use of very high
granularity and flexibility. Operationally, the IP-20C Ethernet services model
is designed to offer a rich feature set combined with simple and user-friendly
configuration, enabling users to plan, activate, and maintain any packet-based
network scenario.
The FibeAir series pay-as-you-go activation key model further enables
operators to build for the future by adding capacity and functionality over
time to meet the needs of network growth without requiring additional
hardware. Additionally, IP-20C’s MultiCore architecture enables operators to
start with a single core with the option of enabling the second core remotely
when network capacity requirements increase.
1.1.2 FibeAir IP-20S

FibeAir IP-20S provides the same basic feature set as the IP-20C, including
QPSK to 2048 QAM modulation, the advanced IP-20 Ethernet services model,
ease of installation and operation, and more, in a single-carrier package.
1.1.3 FibeAir IP-20E

FibeAir IP-20E is a high-capacity, all-outdoor Ethernet backhaul product
designed to operate in the E-Band frequency range. IP-20E provides over
1 Gbps capacity over 250 MHz channels, with modulations of 4 – 128 QAM.
IP-20E utilizes the same CeraOS software as the rest of the FibeAir IP-20
platform, enabling it to provide the same Ethernet services model and other
advanced radio, Ethernet, and management features as IP-20C and IP-20S.

1.2 Software Version 8.2 Introduction and Highlights

CeraOS software version 8.2 is a General Availability (GA) release. Version 8.2
introduces several important features, including:
 Radio
Adds support for IP20G – IP-20S links using 10, 20, and 30 MHz
channels.
 Management
Adds wizards to the Web EMS to simplify the creation of 1+0 and 1+1
links.
Version 8.2 also provides several security enhancements, as described in
Section 3, New Features. In addition, CeraOS 8.2 provides bug fixes for known
issues from the previous release.

5. Feature Release Notes

This section describes significant feature requirements and limitations. For a
full description of supported features, refer to the relevant Technical
Description.
Feature List of limitations
Header De-Duplication  Header De-Duplication must be disabled before performing a software upgrade
and enabled after the upgrade is complete.

8. IP-20C Interoperability with other Ceragon

Products
1. This release supports 1+0 links between IP-20S and IP-20G units on 10,
20, and 30 MHz channels using non-XPIC scripts without ATPC and
without Multi-Carrier ABC.
2. Other than the links described above, interoperability over the radio
between IP-20C/S and IP-20N/G/GX+RMC-A/B, as well as interoperability
between IP-20C and IP-20S, is not supported for this SW Release.
3. MIMO 4x4 is only supported when both Master and Slave share the same
SW Release. The upgrade procedure must be performed simultaneously
on the Master and Slave units.

9. Version Upgrade Compatibility

The following table indicates software upgrade compatibility. In some cases,
you cannot upgrade directly from one version to another. Rather, you must
upgrade to an intermediate version, and then to the higher version. For
example, as shown in the table, to upgrade from version 7.0 to version 8.2, you
must first upgrade from version 7.0 to version 7.5.2, then from version 7.5.2 to
version 7.7.5, then from version 7.7.5 to version 8.0, and finally, from version
8.0 to version 8.2.
It is recommended to perform each upgrade on all units in the link and then to
perform the additional upgrade on all units in the link.

Versions 7.9 and higher can be upgraded directly to version 8.2.

9.1 Across–the-Link Version Compatibility

To make sure software versions are compatible across the link, it is necessary
to ensure that the versions are up to 2 releases apart.

9.1.1 Multi-Carrier ABC Version Compatibility

When working with IP-20C’s carriers in 2+0 SP/DP mode, the user can
activate the Multi-Carrier ABC mechanism which enables optimal packet per
packet distribution over the radios†.
 In release C7.7.5, a revision of this mechanism was implemented to
improve future SW maintainability.
 The following table describes several SW over-the-link compatibility
scenarios of the Multi-Carrier ABC mechanism.
Site A SW version Site B SW version Multi-Carrier ABC Compatibility
Case 1 Prior to C7.7.5 Prior to C7.7.5 OK
Case 2 Prior to C7.7.5 C7.7.5 Not Compatible
