symmetry™ - The Right Solution for Your WiMAX Path
Based on five generations of OFDM product innovation, symmetry addresses the deployment strategies of all carriers. A proven, stable and mature licensed NLOS solution, symmetry simultaneously supports VoIP, circuit-switch voice and broadband data service requirements using OFDM sectors and/or WiMAX-certified sectors.
Drawing on our decade of experience in working with OFDM technologies and network management data gathered from more than one hundred thousand installations worldwide, SR Telecom has optimized the implementation of the OFDM airlink on the symmetry platform to offer the industry's highest link budget, supporting both basic WiMAX capabilities and a suite of key optional WiMAX features that are critical for a stable, resilient deployment.

Expanded Coverage Area
- Advanced sub-channelization techniques enable wireline consistency for data services
Improved Link Availability & Margins
- Link performance and margins are increased through the use of antenna diversity by taking advantage of multi-path and reflections in NLOS environments
Increased Channel Efficiency
- Automatic Retransmission Request (ARQ) techniques reduce overhead from errored packets
- Dynamic power control algorithm automatically adjusts power for optimal performance
Improved Spectral Efficiency & QoS
- Space Time Coding enables the CPE to combine multiple signals into one optimized signal
- 64-QAM adaptive modulation increases sector throughput
Differentiated Pricing & Performance Guarantees
- Advanced bandwidth shaping using our patent-pending scheduling algorithm ensures the highest level of consistency for users in NLOS conditions while maximizing subscriber capacity per megabit
