Next Level Communication with 5G Networking
2
With the implementation of the fifth generation
of telecom networking, the 5G, it is not only
meeting high-speed requirements but also creating
a new ecosystem with the Internet of Things where
these connected devices communicate with each
other making life easier.

The 5G technologies with reduced latency,
increased speed and high rates of accuracy are
developing a new mode of communication that
creates an experience like never before at your
fingertips.

What is 5G?
The 5G technologies with reduced latency,
increased speed and high rates of accuracy are
developing a new mode of communication that
creates an experience like never before at your
fingertips.  The new technology offering massive
connectivity and enhanced data speeds is made
possible with the synchronized working of a set
of sub-applications
5
The 5G Process
RF wave signals from a cell phone and/or IoT
device are captured by the Antennas and Remote
Radio Units using advanced MIMO (Multiple Input
Multiple Output) which form the head portion of a
cellular tower.
6
The 5G Process
These signals are further converted to fiber
optic signals via Beamforming techniques and send
for further processing. The C-RAN (Cloud Radio
Access Network) architecture make RRUs more
scalable, flexible, efficient, and compatible
making 5G networks faster and efficient.
7
Remote Radio Units (RRU)
Intricately designed Antennas and Remote Radio
Units precisely pick up the high-speed RF wave
signals from a cell phone and IoT device to
convert them into fiber optic signals before
being sent for further processing and vice
versa. 
8
From Industrial Ethernet connector like ix
Industrial IP20 Connector to high speed rugged
outdoor I/O connectors, RJ45 modular jacks and
transceivers, Amphenol has the best solutions to
offer for RRUs and Antennas. Amphenol
OCTIS EazyPwr connectors finds extensive
application in Remote Radio heads and other
applications like Small cells, Macrocells,
Microwave links and Distributed Antenna Systems
9
Baseband Units (BBU)
These signals are further transported to the Base
Units where they are converted to electrical
signals. With 5G networking, the BBUs are
centralized with a single BBU unit catering to
multiple networking towers making the system less
complex as well as more efficient and economical,
with immense speed advantage.
10
Fiber optic signals arriving from the RRU are
converted to electrical signals at the BBU and
after adjusting for the baseband frequencies, are
further transported to the core network.
11
Amphenol has a range of high-speed input-output
connectors, USBs, and D-Subs that help in the
efficient functioning of these Base Units. With a
0.60mm pitch, Mini Cool Edge IO connectors are
next-generation OverPass solution capable of
transmitting high-speed signals up to 56G PAM4.
Also supporting higher density data transmission
in a BBU is Amphenol's PCIe M.2 Connector, which
is PCIe Gen 5 ready with 67 contacts on a 0.50mm
pitch.
12
Edge Servers / Edge Data Center
Edge servers can be simply described as
high-power computers or servers which are placed
near or at the "edge" of the 5G network. This
makes the 5G network multiple times faster by
reducing the latency, making it an ideal
technology for mission critical equipment using
Artificial Intelligence. 
13
Amphenol's Card-edge connectors, high-performing
I/O solutions, DDRs, D-sub, SAS, SATA connectors
and High Speed Backplane connectors like
ExaMAX are distributed within the edge servers
enhancing their performance and reliability.
Besides these, our range of standard, slim, micro
and mini cool edge connectors in various pitch
sizes are an apt fit to the latest Edge Server.
14
Network Switches Gateways
Network gateways, switches and servers are an
integral part of the 5G network, especially
inside the 5G core, where all the post processing
of the signal is carried out before being sent to
the data centers. 
15
The gateways implement novel techniques like
Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Carrier
Aggregation (CA) and Network Slicing to decode
and multiplex the signals and then route them to
the data centers for further processing.
16
Amphenols high speed input output connectors and
cables help to provide rack connectivity to the
network switches and gateways. Our high speed
copper connectors and cable assemblies include a
vast list of proven high performance low profile
solutions suitable for advanced applications
like QSFP DD, SFP, and Mini SAS.
17
Transponders are interconnected units associated
with the RRU or the BBU and play a large part in
the transport of the 5G signal. The first half of
the transport procedure is called fronthaul,
where fiber optic signals from the RRU are
fine-tuned by the transponder
Then passed on to the BBU and edge servers that
are part of the CRAN. The latter half of the
procedure where the signals from the CRAN unit
are passed on by optics or wireless to the core
and further on to the data center is called
Backhaul. 
18
Amphenols  optical transceiver products are
designed to suit 5G applications including
fronthaul and backhaul. These transceivers
support advanced technologies like BIDI, DWDM,
LWDM and tunable CWDM and are available in data
rates ranging from 1G to 25G and 100G to
400G. Our transceivers including 400Gb/s QSFP DD
SR8 features outstanding BER and high sensitivity
and are a perfect choice for the massive data
transfer rates involved.
