Maintainability

The deployment of a traditional mobile network is usually an immensely costly
project for customers. This is mostly due to the equipment, site acquisition,
support, training, maintenance, and energy costs. Together those form the most
expensive part of a mobile network, representing 65%–70% of the total cost.
Redline effectively addresses these cost factors by providing specifically
cost-optimized and purpose-built solutions.

Redline’s iLTE solution stands out with superior coverage to dramatically cut
down on the number of base stations needed. This means less equipment, less
sites, and less civil works. The superior coverage is achieved with a
combination of advanced technologies, such as the outstanding -118 dBm Rx
sensitivity. Compared to the -100 dBm level Rx sensitivity from other vendors,
Redline’s -118 dBm Rx sensitivity can lead to greatly enhanced coverage.

Industrial users expect significantly longer serving life out of their wireless
communication infrastructures, in comparison to the telecom industry. Swapping
the equipment out every several years due to commercial-grade equipment’s
shorter lifespan, especially in an industrial environment, is unacceptable. True
industrial-grade equipment brings great cost savings to the table.

Equipment from traditional telecom equipment vendors cannot compare to Redline’s
easy-to-deploy and easy-to-use solutions. This outstanding ease of use, enjoyed
by many customers around the world, is made possible with our easy-to-deploy,
ultra-reliable architecture, comprehensive and intuitive monitoring
capabilities. For example, Redline’s eNodeB BBU and RRU are integrated,
requiring no special skills to deploy. The FlexCore EPC has been designed so
that OT/IT personnel can operate with minimal training.

Redline’s Network Management Software (NMS) puts customers confidently in the
driver’s seat without complications. With ClearView NMS, customers can easily
monitor, configure and control one or more Redline networks using the insightful
interface to assess network health from anywhere, anytime.

×
Flexibility

Following the 3GPP standard, the Redline iLTE solution can be deployed either
directly or used with other LTE solutions. The FlexCore EPC supports
Commercially Off The Shelf (COTS) hardware. The license scheme, starting from 25
UEs, makes it the most industrial friendly and flexible solutions. The eNodeB’s
rugged enclosure and timing features allow for deployment in various
environments, such as above ground, underground, and for marine applications.

Redline Virtual Fiber (VF) solution operates as a Layer 2 bridge, which makes it
simple to integrate into the customer’s existing networks. The radios are
VLAN-aware, giving it the capability to tag and untag traffic or even filter out
traffic. The advanced Software Defined Radio (SDR) design allows the radios to
be easily configured to operate in Point-to-Multipoint (PMP) or Point-to-Point
(PTP) mode.

be easily configured to operate in Point-to-Multipoint (PMP) or Point-to-Point
(PTP) mode.

Redline has spared no expense in developing the most advanced MIMO systems to
deliver the highest stable data throughput at the longest range, under any
conditions. This means that the customers’ investment yields more data capacity,
over a greater service area. Smart MIMO Switching enables MIMO A or B mode on a
remote-by-remote, and packet-by-packet basis, automatically, as conditions
require. This increases the efficiency of each link and provides increased link
stability and improved data capacity.

Redline developed a spectrum sweep tool to help the installers better understand
the RF environment and make informed decisions to choose the best configuration,
such as the center frequency and channel size, for optimal performance during
commissioning.

With the frequencies resource as arguably one the scarcest resources on the
planet and with crowded spectrum and dense deployment, the capability to support
agile frequency arrangement is critical. With multiple channel width options
below 5 MHz, Virtual Fiber can gracefully handle the crowded RF environment in a
such a way that the competition cannot match.

Versatility

1) Industry Leading Ruggedness
The inherent industry leading ruggedness allows Redline products to be deployed
in a variety of application scenarios in all kinds of challenging environmental
conditions.

1.1) Connect Series Remote Terminal
The Connect series provides high-capacity wireless transport for an unparalleled
range of applications. The flexible and compact Connect series feature
all-outdoor installation for sites with TCP/IP-ready devices, split architecture
and all-in-cabinet solutions for sites hosting TCP/IP and/or native serial bus
equipment. The rugged build and ATEX/IECEx Zone 2 certification allow for
confident deployment in hazardous locations.

1.2) Ultra Wide Temperature Range
Industry leading -40 to +75°C temperature range, for the most remote and
challenging environments.

1.3) HazLoc
Redline Zone 1/2 certified equipment allows for deployment in the most dangerous
locations.

1.4) Industrial Bands Fully Supported
The iLTE solution comes with major LTE bands supported, especially those popular
in the industrial sector. The Virtual Fiber system covers bands including
5/3.5/2.5/2 GHz, TVWS band, etc. With iLTE and Virtual Fiber perfectly
complementing each other, and the unified management system, customers can fully
leverage the licensed and unlicensed spectrums to build the ultimate next
generation wireless network.

1.5) All-Outdoor Design
All-outdoor design for ultimate ruggedness and versatility. Combined with
all-natural convection for added reliability, our radios can be confidently
deployed on top of towers, in tunnels, on offshore platforms, in dusty mines, by
railroad waysides, in hot and humid tropical countries, and in rigid polar
areas.

1.6) Versatile Energy Source
The low power consumption of the radios allows for deployment where there is no
regular power source and an alternative energy source can be used to power up
the radios, such as by solar panel in an emergency deployment.

2) Innovative Solutions, the RAS System
The industry-leading RAS system allows wireless data connections to be
established for nomadic and mobile scenarios, where traditionally it is not
possible for a Point-to-Point (PTP) and Point-to-Multipoint (PMP) system.

3) Standards-Based for the Greatest Versatility
Redline’s iLTE solution follows 3GPP standards for a clear roadmap for evolution
and allows for easy integration or expansion. Customers can purchase a complete
Redline iLTE solution or just the EPC or eNodeB, allowing the customer to
customize their industrial solution.

CLOSE
OT/IT Priority Difference

Redline’s Virtual Fiber (VF) includes standard best-in-class security features
such as AES 128/256 encryption, HTTPS (SSL), SSH (CLI), SNMP v3, and MAC-based
Mutal Authentication. For applications demanding further security, ECDSA
Certificates can be added and for applications requiring extreme security,
certified FIPS-140-2 radios can be purchased in the range of frequency bands. It
also provides a special secure mode which, once turned on, disables all
non-secure interfaces and modes of operation in the system to prevent
unauthorized users from gaining access to the system.

For the iLTE solution, Redline follows the 3GPP architecture for the security
requirements, porting telecom level security into the industrial sector. The
end-to-end solution from Redline includes the eNodeB RAN access network and EPC
core network. This full solution enables the customers to have full monitoring
and control of the system all the way to handheld user equipment – the highest
security that can be easily realized. For example, the eNodeBs come with
firewalls enabled by default, only allowing the needed ports to be exposed.
Regular releases of software patches are provided for always maintaining the
highest security. The iLTE solution also includes multifactor authentication and
channel encryption. The SIM card on each user equipment (UE) comes with unique
cryptographic keys that keeps cyber-attacks at bay. When there is any suspicion
about the integrity of the UE, the iLTE also allows the administrators to manage
the access at the system side, such as the ability to disable the SIM card or
simply block the UE from accessing the LTE network. Overall, Redline iLTE offers
the next generation of security for industrial customers and gives the network
operators a suite of tools to effectively manage the system for security.

Environmental Impact

Often, products from other vendors claiming to be “industrial” are not so
industrial. For example, some vendors claim 200+ years of MTBF, with evaluations
being made in ideal conditions, such as average ambient temperature range. This
naturally gives impressively long MTBF, but it’s not realistic in the real
world. If it’s considered for industrial use, it paints a misleading picture and
will likely cause safety issues.

At Redline, we conduct comprehensive mechanical tests to mimic the real-world
environment, including transportation, application environments, such as MIL-STD
810F for vibration and MIL-STD 810G for drop tests. Ingress protection is
utterly important especially for environments exposed to high dust, and fresh &
salt water, which is often seen in an industrial environment. All Redline radio
enclosures are rated at ingress protection IP67. IP67 basically means total
protection against dust and protection against temporary immersion between 15cm
to 1m of water.

Redline’s innovative redundancy solutions lead the pack. The key network nodes
can be deployed in a redundancy architecture for ultimate robustness, such as
FlexCore EPC and ClearView NMS. What sets Redline’s innovative redundancy
solutions apart is our in-the-air interface. Multiple technologies are available
from Redline. When the spectrum resource is ample, customer can deploy the
parallel redundancy protocol (PRP) for redundancy. Otherwise, customers can
utilize sector redundancy. Both guarantee uninterrupted service 24/7/365.

×
Rapid Deployment

Redline solutions are carefully designed to facilitate rapid deployment from end
to end:

1) Purpose-built for Industrial Use
Redline’s eNodeB comes with BBU and RRU integrated, best suited for industrial
customers. This cuts down not only on the configuration complexity, but also
reduces the installation time since only one device needs to be physically
installed. The elimination of BBU also means the customer does not need to have
an air-conditioned equipment room below the tower, which means many more
locations or towers will be eligible for the customer to choose from for
deployment. This makes for faster deployment planning and roll out.

2) Light Weight and Compact Form Factor
Redline radios are best-in-class lightweight radios and feature a compact
form-factor, resulting in one of the easiest equipment installations available
for towers.

3) Integrated Radio and Antennas
Redline radios are designed in a compact form factor. Combined with the Redline
antennas that comes with compatible mounting holes, the radio can be easily
mounted on the back of the antennas in an integrated way. This means there is no
need to find extra space on the tower or pole for the radio, and more eligible
locations for quick roll out of the system.

4) Industrial PoE
All Redline radios can be powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE), so only one
cable run is needed to have the radio connected instead of the two or more
cables in the conventional way.

5) Versatile Energy Source
The low power consumption of the radios allows for deployment where there is no
regular power source and an alternative energy source can be used to power up
the radios, such as by solar panel in an emergency deployment.

×
Complexity

1) Easily and Rapidly Deployable
Equipment from traditional telecom equipment vendors cannot compare to Redline’s
easy-to-deploy and easy-to-use solutions. The whole Redline system is designed
for IT personnel with basic training. In the traditional telecom approach, the
focus is on massive network deployment, complex BSS/OSS integration, universal
interoperability, etc. As a result, only heavily trained, dedicated personnel
can handle the regular maintenance, which the telecom carriers have a massive
service team to help with. This stark contrast resulted in our ultra-reliable
architecture that is simple to deploy, comprehensive monitoring capabilities
that is easy to learn & use, and cutting edge mobility solutions that can be
managed by any IT team around the world.

2) Redline Virtual Fiber technology is Based on Layer 2 Architecture
Redline Virtual Fiber is built on a Layer 2 network topology. This was done with
the intention of easing the integration into a customer’s existing networks,
without adding any extra complexity.

3) Examples
Redline’s Rapid Alignment System (RAS) allows remote radios to self-align and
connect automatically. This greatly reduces the complexity of deployment and
day-to-day use, since the personnel who operate and move the assets do not need
special skills to re-align or re-configure the wireless system. Redline
developed multiple models of the RAS system for industrial operations for inland
and offshore environments.

×
Intrinsic Safety

Redline offers a range of equipment that has been purpose built for deployment
in dangerous and hazardous locations where regular equipment cannot be used,
such as oil & gas, mining, and many other industries. Redline equipment is
designed in accordance with the standards laid out by the industry regulation
bodies around the world, such as ATEX, IECEX, etc. Certified by 3rd parties,
Redline’s suite of ATEX/IECEX Zone 1/2 equipment offers a complete end-to-end
solution for critical industry use, provides coverage in the locations
previously not possible, and keep safety at the highest level at all times.

All Redline outdoor base stations and remote terminals are IP67 rated.

Rugged and field proven, IP67 with 100% humidity support, Redline radios are
designed to operate in some of the world’s most challenging environmental
conditions whether it is mountains of Alaska with frigid temperature conditions
or deserts of Middle East with high temperature and humid conditions. They have
been field proven in all conditions over the years.

×
Ultra-low Latency

Redline’s Virtual Fiber (VF) and iLTE solutions provide best-in-class latency
for industrial customers.

1) VF Solution:
Redline’s industry-leading millisecond latency ensures that even the most
time-sensitive services can be delivered over wide areas. This is realized by
supporting the IEEE TSN (time sensitive networking) standards as well as other
advanced technologies. VF can also work for customers who require deterministic
latency, which is made possible by the fixed frame feature and the support of
synchronization technologies like IEEE 1588 v2 and GPS.

2) iLTE Solution:
Redline field testing shows the iLTE solution’s latency being as low as 5ms, and
averaging at 20ms at a 20 MHz channel configuration. In contrast, the 3GPP
defined latencies are sub 100ms on the Control plane (C-Plane) and sub 10ms on
the User plane (U-Plane). This test shows Redline’s iLTE solution has well
surpassed the industry standard.

Safety as Culture

Redline adheres to the best industry guidance during the process of product
design and actively pursues the highest safety standards, such as RoHS
(Restriction of Hazardous Substances), REACH (Registration, Evaluation,
Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals), and the wide use of lead-free
materials.

At Redline, the well-being of our people comes first. Protecting our employees
from injuries and occupational hazards is our top priority, and even our
sub-contractors must adhere to our Health, Safety, and the Environment (HSE)
policies. Our commitment to HSE is both substantiated and certified through our
memberships with the following organizations that we are proud to be a part of.

Redline adds extra steps in the process to facilitate strengthening the quality
of the system. Redline makes it a hard rule that all projects cannot move
forward without RF planning, review and approval. This guarantees network
coverage from the get-go to ensure the network performance is up to the
expectation of the critical industry customers.

Redline University is established with a variety of training and certification
programs designed to help the internal employees, external customers, and
partners to not only understand our product, but more importantly to fully align
the safety requirements from the critical industry with our associated design,
development, implementation, maintenance, and optimization processes. The
subsequent tests, as part of the training program, are carefully designed and
carried out to ensure the knowledge has indeed been grasped for implementation,
and the safety of the system eventually is guaranteed.

Redline is not finished the project once the equipment heads out the door. The
Redline professional services, including on-site services, optimization
services, preventative maintenance services, and all other services work
together to improve the performance of the system to meet and surpass the design
target, to be actively optimized as the customer’s needs and processes change,
and ultimately further enhances the safety of the overall system.

Durability Alignment

We go for custom made parts whenever it is needed, instead of simply using
off-the-shelf parts for convenience and low cost. For example, a lot of our
clamps are custom made die-cast aluminum structural parts, which not only give
us total quality control but also provides optimal strength and added longevity.

The NACE Study estimates the global cost of corrosion is $2.5 trillion US dollar
annually. Redline adopts a suite of methods to effectively address of the
possible corrosion, such as electroless nickel plating. This is a premium finish
that offers superior protection for outdoor equipment. Other than Redline
products, this technique is almost nowhere to be found in the industry due to
the added cost but Redline applies this premium electroless nickel plating to
all metal enclosures of our outdoor products for the ultimate protection and
longevity in the harshest environments, avoiding network outages and accidents.

When selecting industrial-grade wireless equipment, attention must be given to
the type of enclosure being used. For example, commercial-grade products will
have a reduced lifecycle compared to a product with an industrialized enclosure.

While Redline radios offer high transmit power and long range coverage, all of
our radios are adopting the all-natural-convection design to eliminate the need
for fans and moving parts in the equipment. This goal of eliminating the forced
convection is often a challenge but is worthwhile because it allows for superior
durability/MTBF than competing offerings, which is critical for the industrial
use cases.

100% ruggedness end-to-end solution: there is no cutting corners when it comes
to ancillary products, be it from 3rd party or in-house. For example, for cables
and connectors, we stringently qualify our vendors, and only consider the most
reputable brands. On top of that, we select the industrial-grade line components
from the qualified vendors instead of commercial lines. We also custom fabricate
a large amount of brackets because most of the commercially available brackets
off-the-shelf are not up to our standard.

Physical Tampering

Redline equipment comes with FIPS-compliant anti-tamper seals.

CVE Protection

Redline regularly releases patches to address Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures (CVE), typically in a semiannual basis. There are also flexible
maintenance releases to address the safety issues as they arise.

Durability

Redline’s industrial wireless solutions are designed with a focus on durability
to provide a longer lifecycle compared to other solutions that focus on
commercial wireless. As many of Redline’s customers have openly expressed, once
the Redline system is installed and optimized, they “don’t need to go back”, in
some cases for years.

Design wise, with the most stringent MTBF evaluations, our product features an
outstanding MTBF at decades of years.

Redline products are designed and tested for long term reliable operation in
extreme weather conditions, e.g. the Virtual Fiber (VF) RDL-3000 at -40 to 75
°C.

An example of Redline’s continuous improvement comes with the AN80i product
line. Our investigation shows that the majority of AN80i failures were due to
lightning and power surges. We then designed and added additional accessories to
our product offerings (such as surge arrestors), worked with our customers to
improve their installation practices, updated our installation documentation,
and eventually embedded additional surge protection into our products so that
the installation for the customers are kept at a minimum (i.e., the next
generation of the AN80i is the RDL-3000 and has additional surge protection
built in).

Scalability

Redline’s iLTE solutions are optimized for industial networks that start at 25
UEs compared to the tens of thousands of UEs that a typical commercial public
mobile network starts at. It also offers the capability to scale up smoothly to
meet an industrial client’s future network demands as well.

Virtual Fiber (VF) allows the customers to go from as little as 2 sector
controllers (e.g. for point-to-point scenarios) all the way to thousands of
sector controllers and remote terminals (e.g. a mix of point-to-point and
point-to-multipoint applications) for large scale deployments.

Power Frugality

To maintain total control over our software and hardware platforms, Redline has
a full stack in-house R&D development team. One of the key benefits of this
capability is that we design the hardware platforms to be extremely power
efficient for industrial use, especially where the availability of power is
limited. The in-house expertise allows us to optimize the design in a very
flexible way, for example by applying the premium high efficiency linear power
converters at strategic locations and using regular linear power converters
where the requirement is not as stringent. This approach gives the Redline
products outstanding power efficiency, which often comes at over 80 or 90 per
centage, at a relatively economical cost.

The RDL-3000/3100 family of products are powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE).
With a total of 25 watt PoE power available to use, most of the RDL-3000/3100
family of products were able to fulfill the peak performance at a much lower
power consumption. This efficiency made the RDL-3000 the industry leading radio.

When it comes to the iLTE solution, the RDL-6000 radio’s 70 watts average power
consumption makes it the best-in-class available on the market.

The low power consumption of these radios allows for deployment flexibility. For
example, at locations where the only power source is the renewable energy, such
as solar panels.
