The world’s smallest
Gbps V-band link –
Wireless Fiber – 6351
Ericsson’s Wireless Fiber 6351 built
on the MINI-LINK platform is an alloutdoor, zero-footprint microwave
node optimized for small cell
deployments. The innovative design
with integrated 60 GHz radio and
antenna provides capacity, easy
installation and minimal visual impact.
The 6351 can be easily and directly
connected to a small cell RBS, fitting
into any city environment, which is
key for street-level deployments such
as lamp poles and walls. It can also
be connected to any other MINI-LINK
product using available Ethernet
ports, allowing combined
implementation in areas that require
specific functionalities and
aggregation capacity. With its ability
to connect any IP-based device to the
integrated switch, the multi-interface
6351 delivers the ultimate in flexibility.
The high atmosphere attenuation
reduces the risk for interference in
dense network environments and the
60 GHz band provides a vast amount
of unused spectrum allowing high
capacities to be transferred. The often
un-licensed 60 GHz band enables
fast network roll-out and lower total
cost of ownership.
For enterprise applications that
require carrier-grade backhaul
over short distances, Ericsson’s
Wireless Fiber 6351 is the perfect
choice
› Key benefits:
– Ideal for enterprise small cell
deployment with everything
included in the ball
– 60 GHz un-licensed band,
1Gbps
– Simple design results in up to
20% savings on installation cost
– Zero footprint saves on site
leasing cost
– 45% lower power consumption,
compared to a traditional split –
mount solution

Wireless fiber 6351
Available in two configurations:
Multi-Interface
Built-in switch for small cell
aggregation, suitable for
cascading or repeater
deployments
Single Interface
Very compact solution
for small-cell sites
Network Synchronization
› The Wireless Fiber 6351 supports
transport of synchronization
signals across the hop
– The synchronization signal
does not occupy any
bandwidth allocated for
payload traffic
› The 6351 also supports PTP
synchronization according to IEEE
1588v2
Low Delay
› Delay performance is typically as
low as 100 μs per radio link,
enabling the best possible enduser experience
Adaptive Modulation
› Hitless adaptive modulation is
supported for 4–256 QAM over 60
GHz, providing an error-free
transmission and constant delay
variation securing sync
performance
Header Compression
› 6351 supports multi-layer header
compression enabling as high as
20% extra bandwidth
Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non-Lineof-Sight (NLOS)
› Ericsson’s Wireless Fiber 6351
supports both LOS and NLOS
configurations, providing
enterprises greater flexibility to
deploy small cells and enabling
high network performance.
Modular Building Practice
› Modular building practices secure
the lowest possible TCO
– The switch is only included
when multiple interfaces are
needed and can be placed
either as a mounting plate or
at ground level together with
other site equipment
