    5 [https://www.interdigital.com/solution/edgelink InterDigital's EdgeLink ]^([#hn TM])^ is a wireless solution delivering high capacity links with very low latency over an unlicensed 60 GHz link. EdgeLink^([#hn TM])^ is an integrated millimeter wave (mmW) Mesh transport technology with a centrally controlled Mesh software solution that resides on top of a Peraso [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11ad IEEE 802.11ad] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiGig WiGig])  baseband. The system operates at a 60 GHz RF with a high-gain antenna (38dBi) for long range transmission. The Edgelink^([#hn TM])^ node contains a 10 GigE access port for Point of Attachment (PoA) of various devices, such as LTE eNB small cells and 802.11 Access Points which require transporting of traffic with extremely low latency. This is a low-cost alternative to fiber and microwave solutions based on compliant system with network discovery and neighbor selection algorithm built on top of SDN framework ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ONOS ONOS] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_vSwitch Open vSwitch]).

    7 Each !EdgeLink^([#hn TM])^ node consists of one Antenna unit w/ internal Freescale LS1043A communication processor and connects over USB3 to 1x adjacent sector antenna unit. The units are powered using Power over Ethernet (POE) injector. The node with processor unit contains an 802.11AC Wi-Fi Card for wireless debug. The !EdgeLink^([#hn TM])^ network consists of at least one gateway (GW) node that is the connection point to the internet and is used to associate with up to 5 non-gateway nodes (NGW), 5 hops away.

    99Each sector can be configured dynamically as either a PCP or a STA by the !OpenFlow ONOS controller. The Mesh software agent on each node will communicate with the centralized controller to manage the nodes in support of key Mesh features that include Network Discovery and Neighbor Selection. A thin Orchestrator client can be used for service level management to support multi-tenant service level agreements (SLA), priorities and provision dynamic transport slices via a Northbound API.
