designs, documentation and other work product prepared by Airspan and
delivered to Axtel in the performance of Services solely for Axtel's
internal business purposes. It is understood between the Parties that
Airspan will employ its know-how, techniques, concepts, experience and
expertise, as well as all other intellectual property, including that

Party Software; and (ii) all business, technical, marketing and
financial information and data that is clearly marked with a
restrictive legend of the disclosing party ("Discloser").
10.2 The party receiving Information ("Recipient") will use the same care
and discretion to avoid disclosure, publication or dissemination of
Information as it uses with its own similar information that it does
not wish to disclose, publish or disseminate. The Recipient may
-12-
disclose Information only to: (i) its employees and employees of its
parent, subsidiary affiliated companies or subcontractors who have a
need to know for purposes of carrying out this Agreement; and (ii) any
other party with the Discloser's prior written consent. Before

written agreement with such party sufficient to require that party to

However, the Recipient must give the Discloser prompt notice and make
a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order.
10.4 No obligation of confidentiality applies to any Information that the

receives without obligations of confidentiality from a third party. No
obligation of confidentiality applies to any Information that is, or
becomes, publicly available without breach of this Agreement.
10.5 Each party's obligations hereunder shall survive for a period of five
(5) years after receipt of Information hereunder from the Discloser,
except as otherwise mutually agreed upon by the parties.

loss, damage, liability, cost, expense, action or claim, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, litigation costs and expenses and amounts
paid in settlement, subject to the limitations set forth in the
following paragraphs, arising out of or in connection with any
infringement or alleged infringement of patents, copyrights,
trademarks, trade secrets, or any other intellectual property right of
a third party.
Therefore, if a third party claims that a Product or Software
provided to Axtel under this Agreement infringes such third party's
patent or copyright, Airspan will defend Axtel against that claim at
Airspan' expense and pay all costs and damages that a court finally
awards or are agreed in settlement, provided that Axtel:
(a) promptly notifies Airspan in writing of the claim, and (b) allows
Airspan to control, and cooperates with Airspan at Airspan'
expense in, the defense and any related settlement negotiations.
If such a claim is made or appears likely to be made,
Airspan agrees to secure the right for Axtel to continue to use the
Product or Software, or to modify it, or to replace it with equivalent
Product or Software. If Airspan determines that none of these options
is reasonably available, Axtel agrees to return the Product or
Software to Airspan on Airspan' written request. Airspan will then
reimburse to Axtel an amount of money equal to the purchase price paid
by Axtel for the Product or Software.
-13-
Any such claims against Axtel or liability for infringement arising
from use of the Product or Software following a request for return by
Airspan are the sole responsibility of Axtel. This represents Axtel's

other products not provided by Airspan as a system, or the
combination, operation, or use of Product or Software with any
product, data, or apparatus that Airspan did not provide;
(f) the Axtel's failure to install or have installed changes,
revisions or updates as instructed by Airspan; or
(g) infringement by a Third Party Vendor Item alone, as opposed to
its combination with Products Airspan provides to Axtel as a
system.

12.1 In no event shall Airspan or its agents or suppliers be liable to
Axtel for more than the amount of any actual direct damages up to the
greater of U.S. $100,000 (or equivalent in local currency) or the
charges for the Product or Services that are the subject of the claim,
regardless of the cause and whether arising in contract, tort or

20. Assignment; Right of First Refusal
20.1 Each Party agrees not to assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement
or its rights under it, or delegate its obligations, without the other
Party's prior written consent, and any attempt to do so is void.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Airspan may assign or otherwise
transfer this Agreement or its rights under it, or delegate its
obligations, to any of its affiliates. Airspan may also assign or
otherwise transfer this Agreement or its rights under it, or delegate
its obligations, to any purchaser of the FWA Business without the
Axtel's prior written consent; provided that:
(i) Airspan shall provide to Axtel the soliciting or offering
material used in connection with any contemplated sale of the
FWA Business (the "FWA Information") at the same time any such
FWA Information is provided to any third party potential
purchaser (the "Potential Purchasers"), subject to execution by
the Parties of a non-disclosure agreement in a form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Airspan, but no less
restrictive on Axtel than the non-disclosure agreement executed
with the Potential Purchasers; and provided, however, that
Airspan may not offer, solicit interest in or sell the FWA
Business to any company which is a direct competitor of Axtel
or does not have the necessary resources (human and/or
technical), at Airspan' reasonable
-18-
judgment, to manufacture the Products and/or to provide the
technical support required by Axtel, including without
limitation, Telefonos de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. or any of its
affiliates (the "Restricted Companies");
(ii) Airspan hereby grants to Axtel a right of first refusal ("RFR")
with respect to any offer received by Airspan from any third
party which Airspan proposes to accept (including any revised
offers), allowing Axtel to purchase the FWA Business on terms
not less favorable than such offer, subject to Axtel having
made, within forty five (45) days after Airspan shall have
delivered written notice to Axtel of such offer or revised offer
(the "Vendor's Notice"), a single deposit for the amount equal
to five (5) percent of the amount of the third party offer (the
"Deposit") into an interest bearing escrow account. Once Airspan
has received the Deposit, Axtel shall have the right to perform
a due diligence investigation of the FWA Business, and Airspan
shall be obligated to promptly provide all the information and
access that Axtel reasonably requires for the evaluation of the
FWA Business; and
(iii) in the event of any such sale to a purchaser other than Axtel,
such new vendor shall assume all of Airspan's obligations under
this Agreement.
20.2 If Axtel exercises its RFR, Airspan and Axtel shall have ninety (90)
days from payment of the Deposit to negotiate in good faith and enter
into a purchase agreement pursuant to which Airspan will sell the FWA
Business to Axtel, unless a longer period of time is stated in the
offer received from the Potential Purchaser, in which case such longer
period shall prevail (the "Offer Period"). If the Parties have entered
into such an agreement by the end of the Offer Period, the Deposit
shall be credited towards the purchase price of the FWA Business. If
the Parties have not entered into such an agreement by the end of the
Offer Period, Axtel shall forfeit in favor of Airspan the Deposit, and
Airspan shall have the right to sell the FWA Business to any Potential
Purchaser other than a Restricted Company, subject to the terms and
conditions of Section 20.3 below; provided, however, that if the terms
of the proposed sale are more favorable to such Potential Purchaser
than the best offer (from Airspan' perspective) presented by Axtel to
Airspan during the Offer Period, then the RFR shall again apply to
such sale, but Axtel shall not be obligated to provide any additional
Deposit.
20.3 If Axtel shall decline in any instance to exercise its RFR or the
Parties fail to enter into the purchase agreement as described in
Section 20.2, Airspan shall have the right for a period of one year
from the date of such declination or failure, to sell the FWA Business
to a Potential Purchaser (except if such Potential Purchaser is a
Restricted Company) without prior notice to Axtel, on terms which are
not more beneficial to such Potential Purchaser than those set forth
in Vendor's Notice. If the foregoing conditions are not met, the RFR
shall again apply to such sale; provided, however, that the 90-day
term provided in Section 20.2 above shall be reduced to forty five
(45) days and Axtel shall not be obligated to provide any additional
Deposit.
21. Airspan Security Instrument.
21.1 The Parties hereby acknowledge that the current Bank Guarantee granted

of the Bank Guarantee. In addition to the foregoing, the Parties
hereby agree that, if after the Effective Date of this Agreement,
Axtel makes new payments in the circumstances described in Section
21.2 below, Airspan shall obtain and maintain a new Bank Guarantee to
cover the respective Excess Exposure Amount until such time as
aggregate amounts paid fall below the Excess Exposure Amount.

1. Scope
1.1 This section defines the essential performance characteristics of the
Airspan Internet Fixed Wireless Access system (Internet FWA). The scope of
the section is confined to the airside equipment that supports wireless
transmission in the local loop, i.e. that part of the system from the
Base-station network interface to the subscriber premises terminal
interface (telephone socket), together with associated network management
operations systems in the element management layer. The specifications for
the switch, service gateway and other associated backhaul equipment are
therefore specifically excluded from this section.
2.1 General description
2.1.1 Intentionally Left in Blank
2.1.1.1 Purpose of Internet FWA
The Internet FWA system allows telecommunications operators to construct
high quality telephone access networks between customers' premises and
local exchanges. The system uses cellular point to multi-point wireless
technology as a replacement for traditional copper-based local loops. A
major advantage of FWA technology is that it allows operators to create new
access networks quickly and with minimum capital investment.
Each terminal in the Internet FWA system is capable of delivering PSTN
circuit-switched services through two standard analogue telephone lines. In
addition to the PSTN services, a packet-mode service may be used to deliver
`always-on' connections between one or more Internet Service Providers
(ISPs) and the computer equipment of subscribers.
The Internet FWA system provides a frequency division duplex radio link to
a subscriber transceiver system and operates in the 3.4 to 3.6 GHz band.
The air interface utilizes time division multiplex on the downlink and time
division multiple access on the uplink. The system comprises a network of
Radio Base-stations (RBS) arranged on a cellular plan and these are
connected to the PSTN or to the public Internet by a conventional back-haul
network. Each base-station consists of one or more Integrated Transceiver
Systems (ITSs).
2.1.2 Sub-systems
The Internet FWA system contains two Network elements (NEs):
o Remote Service System (RSS)
o Radio Base Station (RBS)

Purchase and License Agreement for FWA Equipment-December 2004
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Internet FWA system contains three Operations systems (OSs):
o Radio Element Manager (REM)
o RSS Installation System (RIS)
o Field Engineering Terminal (FET)
The Remote Service System (RSS)
This system provides the subscriber with two independent analogue exchange
lines and optionally a packet data service interface. The system consists
of the RSS Terminal Unit (RTU), an RSS Power and Connection unit (RPCU) and
an RSS Data Adapter (RDA) or Dongle Data Adaptor
The RTU is mounted externally to the subscriber premises and contains a
directional antenna, radio electronics and the two analogue line interfaces
to carry PSTN services. The unit is powered from the RPCU indoor unit that
plugs into the subscribers mains supply. A `drop cable' connects the RTU to
the RPCU. The RPCU contains two sets of telephone sockets for connection to
the subscriber's telephone equipment. In order to provide the optional
packet data service, an RDA is supplied along with a special version of the
RTU that contains the required data interface. The packet data service
makes use of the HPNA standard to multiplex the data onto `line 0' of the
telephone wires. The RDA connects to the subscriber's personal computer.
The Integrated Transceiver System (ITS)
One or more ITSs form the basis of the radio base-station and have been
designed to serve an area of up to 5km radius in a typical urban
environment and up to 20km in a rural environment.
Voice band circuits from the ITS are connected to the switch by means of E1
links running a V5.2 protocol. The packet data service is also routed over
E1 links to the service gateway using L2TP (layer 2 tunnel protocol). The
ITS can route any slot from the `circuit' E1s to any slot on the airside
interface.
In principle, an ITS can be provisioned as a 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 or 18 bearer
configuration. RBS configurations specifically supported by installation
and maintenance processes provide tri-sectored configurations with 18 or
27(1) RF carriers, or a tri/hex-sectored RBS with 48 RF carriers. The
27-carrier configurations require the use of two ITSs, and the 48-carrier
configuration requires the use of three ITSs. The 48 bearer base-station is
designed to provide coverage in two `RF layers', the first layer allowing a
frequency re-use of one to be employed whilst a more conservative frequency
plan is used in the other layer. Service to the individual RSS can be
switched between these two layers depending on the interference environment
experienced at that RSS.
Radio Element Manager (REM)
----------
(1) In the Axtel application, the 27 bearer base-stations generally provide
only 26 bearers due to limited availability of RF channels.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Radio Element Manger (REM) is a high performance, high capacity
management system and is used to perform the Operation, Administration,
Maintenance and Provisioning (OAM&P) procedures for the Internet FWA
network. One REM can manage up to 200 ITSs and 150,000lines. The REM is
primarily composed of a server platform, a client platform, additional user
PCs and a Network Communications Server. Their respective purposes are
described below. The REM supports a total of 4 expert and 4 standard user
sessions.
The REM server performs all provisioning related, object-related, event and
alarm related processing, together with some of the GUI processing.
Further, the server stores all object, event and alarm related data and
state. As such, the majority of REM software executes on the server. The
server also interfaces directly to a customer's High Level Management
System (HLMS) for subscriber provisioning.
The REM Client primarily acts as the host platform for the additional user
GUI screens. It provides some of the GUI processing, and acts as a platform
on which additional user scripts run.
PCs running Exceed software connect with the REM client to allow access for
additional users.
The Network Communication Server (NCS) is an integrated terminal server and
modem unit, which provides a connectivity solution from the REM to its
network of ITSs. It also provides connectivity to the Remote Maintenance
Terminal that is used during the subscriber hardware installation.
Field engineering terminal (FET)
The installing engineer will use this equipment during installation and
commissioning of Base-station equipment. The FET application runs on a PC
platform using a LINUX operating system. The FET is intended to connect
locally into an ITS and allows control of the ITS as well as access to
status information. Each FET requires a license key to enable operation and
these are available from Airspan.
RSS Installation system (RIS)
The installing engineer will use this equipment to control the RSS during
installation, to aid antenna alignment to the Base Station, to measure the
performance of the RF link and to enable the connection. The primary
component of the RIS is the Remote Maintenance Terminal (RMT).
2.1.3 External interfaces
The physical layer external interfaces of the Internet FWA system are:
o Analogue line interface at the RSS
o Packet data interface at the RSS
o A.C. power interface at the RSS
o PCM (E1) interface at the RBS
o Packet data (E1) interface at the RBS
o D.C. power interface at the RBS

2.3 Radio system
2.3.1 General description of the air interface
2.3.1.1 Physical layer
The physical layer of the Internet FWA air interface uses digital time
division multiplex/time division multiple access (TDM/TDMA) with a 10-slot
frame structure. Uplink and downlink carriers are paired, and separated by
a fixed duplex spacing of 99.84MHz. A TDM/TDMA channel (i.e. one time-slot
one on one RF carrier) is known as a physical channel. In the maximum
configuration, one ITS provides 18 pairs of RF carriers, and 180 physical
channels.
The uplink carriers are contained within the frequency band 3425 MHz to
3450 MHz, and the downlink carriers are contained within the frequency band
3525 MHz to 3550 MHz.
The modulation scheme for both the uplink and downlink direction is pi/4
shifted differential quadrature phase shift keying ((pi)/4DQPSK) with a
nominal symbol rate of [ * ] symbols/s. The gross data rate is [ * ]
kbits/s per carrier.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reserved channels are used to allow contention access by terminals. These
access channels are not available for carrying subscribers' voice or data
traffic.
2.3.1.2 Channel plan
The Internet FWA system operates over 78 RF channels, with a nominal
channel spacing of 307.2 kHz. The lowest uplink channel (Ch. 2) has a
nominal centre frequency of 3425.8944 MHz. The highest downlink channel
(Ch. 79) has a nominal centre frequency of 3549.3888 MHz. The fixed duplex
spacing is equivalent to 325 times the channel spacing.
2.3.1.3 MAC layer for PSTN traffic
One physical channel is capable of carrying a single 32 kbit/s ADPCM
circuit-switched connection, or one half of a 64 kbit/s PCM
circuit-switched connection.
2.3.1.4 MAC layer for the Packet data service
Physical channels can be allocated in groups of six to carry packet-mode
traffic. One group of six physical channels is described as a packet
channel.
2.3.2 RF performance of the ITS equipment
2.3.2.1 Maximum transmit power
The maximum transmit power from the ITS is not less than 28 dBm for each
carrier, measured at the antenna port of the TMU.
2.3.2.2 Transmitter implementation loss
The transmitted signal from the ITS is a close approximation to an ideal
(pi)/4DQPSK signal. The additional carrier to noise margin required to
demodulate the practical transmitted signal, compared to an ideal signal is
less than 1 dB.
2.3.2.3 Spectrum due to modulation
The spectrum due to modulation at the output of the ITS is as follows:
---------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
Channel Mean power (dBc)
---------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
N 0 dBc (by definition)
N +/- 1 <= -24.5 dBc
N +/- 2 <= -40 dBc
N +/- 3 <= -50 dBc
Any other channel <= -60 dBc or -60 dBm (whichever is
greater)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mean power is measured using an ideal receiver with
root-raised-cosine filtering with transition factor ((alpha)) =
0.4, and with the receiver tuned to the centre of the appropriate
adjacent channel.
2.3.2.4 Minimum receiver sensitivity
The receiver sensitivity for the ITS is not greater than -101.5 dBm,
measured at the antenna port of the TMU, for a bit error ratio (BER) of
10-3 before forward error correction. This measurement assumes an ideal
transmitter.
2.3.2.5 Receiver selectivity
The ITS receiver selectivity is specified in terms of the level of
interfering signal consistent with a bit error ratio (BER) for the wanted
signal of less than 10-(3) before FEC. The interfering signal is assumed to
be from a signal source with the ideal characteristics of the Internet FWA
radio system, centered on the applicable adjacent channel. The wanted
signal is assumed to be from a similar ideal source and set at a level 3 dB
greater than the level required for BER = 10-(3) in the absence of
interference. The carrier to interference levels are as follows:
---------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
Channel Carrier/Interference ratio for
BER = 10-(3)
---------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
N <= 14.4 dB
N +/- 1 <= -15.5 dB
N +/- 2 <= -58.5 dB
Any other channel <= -84.5 dBc
---------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
2.3.3 RF performance of the RSS equipment
2.3.3.1 Maximum transmit power
The maximum transmit power from the RSS is not less than 44.5 dBm EIRP in
RF channels 8 to 73 inclusive, and not less than 41.5 dBm EIRP in the
remaining channels. This transmit power specification applies to the
complete RTU including the antenna.
2.3.3.2 Transmitter implementation loss
The transmitted signal from the RSS is a close approximation to an ideal
(pi)/4DQPSK signal. The additional carrier to noise margin required to
demodulate the practical transmitted signal, compared to an ideal signal is
less than 1 dB.

-------------------------------- -------------------------------
N [ * ]
N +/- 1 [ * ]
N +/- 2 [ * ]

-------------------------------- -------------------------------
The mean power is measured using an ideal receiver with root-raised-cosine
filtering with transition factor ((alpha)) = 0.4, and with the receiver
tuned to the centre of the appropriate adjacent channel. The measured power
is averaged over duration of the time-slot containing the uplink
transmission.
2.3.3.4 Minimum receiver sensitivity
The receiver sensitivity for the RSS is not greater than [ * ] dBm in RF
channels 8 to 73 inclusive, and not greater than [ * ] dBm in the remaining
channels. The received signal is measured at the connector of the RTU
antenna, for a bit error ratio (BER) of 10-3 before forward error
correction. This measurement assumes an ideal transmitter.
2.3.3.5 Receiver selectivity
The RSS receiver selectivity is specified in terms of the level of
interfering signal consistent with a bit error ratio (BER) for the wanted
signal of less than 10-(3) before FEC. The interfering signal is assumed to
be from a signal source with the ideal characteristics of the Internet FWA
radio system, centered on the applicable adjacent channel. The wanted
signal is assumed to be from a similar ideal source and set at a level 3 dB
greater than the level required for BER = 10-(3) in the absence of
interference. The carrier to interference levels are as follows:

2.3.3.6 RSS receiver dynamic range
The dynamic range of the RSS receiver is from the limit of sensitivity to
-20 dBm, measured at the antenna connector of the RTU. Over this dynamic
range the BER of the received signal (measured before forward error
correction) is not greater than 10-3.
2.3.3.7 RSS antenna gain
The gain of the RSS antenna is between [ * ] dBi and [ * ] dBi at the peak
of the response. The nominal beamwidth is 14 degrees (i.e. +/- 7 degrees).
The rejection of cross-polar signals in the main antenna response is not
less than 20 dB compared to a co-polar signal of identical level. The
maximum level of side-lobe responses is [ * ] dBi, and this limit applies
at azimuth angles from 22 degrees to 338 degrees with respect to the peak
response.
2.3.4 Automatic power control
To minimise interference in the network, the system incorporates automatic
uplink RF power control whereby the ITS attempts to maintain a constant
received signal strength (RSSI) of -80dBm for each active call or packet
connection. If the RSSI strays from this target, the ITS will send a
message to the appropriate RSS requesting an appropriate modification to
the uplink RF power. The ITS normally integrates the RSSI over a 30s period
before deciding whether an adjustment is required although there is a
faster attack period at the start of a call or packet connection. At the
end of a call or connection, the RSS calculates a new RF power that will be
used to initiate the next call or connection on the same RF channel.
To maintain an appropriate initial uplink RF power level during extended
periods of call inactivity, network test calls are automatically scheduled
to each RSS on each of its operating channels. Just as is the case for
normal calls, the uplink RF power is adjusted appropriately at the end of a
network test call. The scheduling period is normally set to 23 hours.
2.3.5 Combining diversity
In ITS configurations with 2 or more TMUs per sector, the system is
configured to execute two-path maximum ratio combining in the uplink. The
implementation of this feature delivers the theoretical benefit of maximum
ratio combining with less than 1 dB implementation loss.
The TMU receiver is wideband and covers all of the uplink spectrum. This
means that the IF signals from 2 TMUs in the same sector differ only by
virtue of being received from

2 physically separated antennas. The two I.F signals are fed to separate
arms of each receiver pair of every TBM in the sector. The TBM hosts three
such receiver pairs where each pair is configured to an appropriate
channel. The maximum ratio combining algorithm is executed independently on
each receiver pair.
2.3.6 Dynamic carrier list management
Dynamic carrier list management feature allows each RSS to modify the
classification of individual RF carriers in response to periodic
measurements of the received (downlink) signal. Each RSS notifies the ITS
of changes in carrier classification, allowing the ITS to allocate channels
with a priority reflecting the recent quality of downlink carriers. This
feature has proven to be effective in combating the effects of static
frequency-selective fading, and minimizing the impact of downlink radio
interference from nearby RBSs in the same network. This feature is
extremely valuable in networks where tri-sector and tri/hex-sector RBSs are
built in adjacent or nearby cells.
2.4 Equipment configurations

The column `ITS sector organization' denotes the number of RF carriers than
are enabled in each sector. No relationship is implied between the position
of the elements of this list and the numbering of ITS sectors; thus a
sector organization of 6.6.5 applies equally to configurations where the
five-carrier sector is ITS sector 1, 2 or 3.
The tri/hex configuration is described as 6.6.4. The six-carrier sectors
are associated with the hex-sectored antennas, and the four-carrier sector
is associated with the tri-sectored antennas. By default, the tri-sector is
ITS sector 1.
The following rules apply:
o Where PDS is required at an ITS, two TPM-PDs must be fitted.
o Each TPM requires one E1 connection between the ITS and the local
exchange.
o Each TPM-PD requires one E1 connection between the ITS and the service
gateway.
Some of the base station configurations make use of more than one ITS. PDS
can be enabled or disabled on a `per-ITS' basis, and so it is possible to
create a multi-ITS configuration where only one or two of the ITSs has PDS
enabled.
2.4.2 PSTN traffic capacity
The PSTN traffic capacity of the supported RBS configurations is detailed
in the table below. Note these figures apply where PDS is not provided; the
PSTN capacity of an ITS with PDS is necessarily lower.

---------------------------------------------- ----------------------- -------------------------
The reference capacity is defined as the capacity at 1% probability of
blocking for long ADPCM calls, with the optimum distribution of traffic
loading between ITS sectors.
The soft-sector capacity assumes that 10% of the traffic loading arises
from subscribers in the overlap regions between sectors, and that the
soft-sectored load is distributed evenly between three overlap regions
(3.3% of the total load in each overlap). In 26-carrier RBSs of type III
and IV, and 27-carrier RBSs of type II, there is only one overlap region
where a benefit is derived from soft sectoring; in these cases, the
capacity gain is relatively small. In the tri/hex-sectored ITS,
soft-sectoring is not enabled between hex-sectors.
One ITS with V5.2 interface can support a maximum of 2048 PSTN lines, and a
maximum of 2048 RSSs.
2.4.3 Packet data traffic capacity
2.4.3.1 Number of packet channels at an ITS
Packet channels at an ITS can be configured subject to the following rules:
o Packet data can be supported by ITSs with sector arrangement 6.6.6,
6.6.5, 8, 9, 9.8, 9.9, 6.6.4 (tri/hex)
o All packet channels consist of 6 physical channel pairs
o An ITS that supports PDS has two TPM-PDs
o One TPM-PD may support zero to four packet channels inclusive
o One ITS supports a maximum of 36 physical channels (i.e. six packet
channels)
o The largest packet partition allowed in one sector is three packet
channels
o In bi-sector or tri-sector ITSs, if the ITS provides PDS then each
sector must have at least one packet channel
o In a tri-sector ITS, the sum of the number of packet channels in the
smallest two packet partitions must not exceed four. This ensures that
sectors will not be split across TPM-PDs.

2.4.3.2 Number of simultaneous PPP and MAC connections
The packet data service supports a maximum of:
o 700 packet data subscribers per ITS
o [ * ] simultaneous PPP connections per ITS
o [ * ] simultaneous active MAC connections per packet channel
o [ * ] simultaneous active MAC connections per TPM-PD
o [ * ] simultaneous active MAC connections per ITS
2.4.3.3 Traffic capacity of a packet channel
Each packet channel (consisting of six physical channels) provides a shared
channel with an aggregate capacity for users' packet data traffic of not
less than [ * ] kbps in the downlink direction, and not less than 84 kbps
in the uplink direction. PPP, TCP and IP headers applied at the users'
computers are assumed to form part of the useful throughput.
2.4.3.4 Peak throughput for a single PDS user
The peak throughput for a single user is approximately 96 kbps in the
downlink direction (using the USB interface) and approximately 92 kbps in
the downlink direction (using the RS-232 interface). The peak throughput
for a single user is approximately 42 kbps in the uplink direction.
Note that these are peak figures, and apply when the user has exclusive use
of three physical channels. In normal operation, the packet channel
capacity is shared between a number of users, and mean throughput figures
for individual users will be lower than these peak values. The operator
must ensure that sufficient packet channels are configured to offer
reasonable quality of service to packet data subscribers.
2.4.3.5 Reduction in PSTN capacity
The remaining PSTN traffic capacity at an RBS with packet data service is
defined in the following table. These figures assume that 10% of the
offered traffic is from soft-sectored terminals.

2.5 External interfaces
2.5.1 ITS to transmission system
The interface between the ITS and the transmission system is defined by
ITU-T G.703 11/2001, `Physical/electrical characteristics of hierarchical
digital interfaces'. Only the interface at 2048 kbit/s is supported in
Internet FWA.
As an additional requirement, Internet FWA requires that the long-term
frequency accuracy of the E1 signal from the transmission system is better
than 10-(7) (0.1 ppm). Transmission equipment does not normally re-time
digital traffic, and so this frequency accuracy is usually dependent on
correct configuration of the local exchange (for PSTN connections) or the
packet data network.
Internet FWA complies with ITU-T G.823, `The control of jitter and wander
within digital networks which are based on the 2048 kbit/s hierarchy'.
2.5.2 ITS to local exchange
The framing structure of the signal between the ITS and the local exchange
is defined by ITU-T G.704 10/1998, `Synchronous frame structures used at
1544, 6312, 2048, 8448 and 44 736 kbit/s hierarchical levels', and ITU-T
G.706 04/1991, `Frame alignment and cyclic redundancy check (CRC)
procedures relating to basic frame structures defined in Recommendation
G.704'.
The voice coding for circuit-switched traffic complies with ITU-T G.711
11/1988, `Pulse code modulation (PCM) of voice frequencies'.
Signaling between the ITS and the local exchange uses the V5.2 protocol,
defined in the ETSI V5.1 Specification ETS 300 324-1, V 1.2.2,
`V-Interfaces at the digital local exchange (LE) - V5.1-Interface (based on
2048 kbit/s) for the support of access network (AN)', and ETSI V5.2
Specification ETS 300 347-1, V 2.1.2, `V-interfaces at the digital local
exchange (LE) - V5.2 interface (based on 2048 kbit/s) for the support of
access network (AN)'. Only requirements for PSTN services apply to Internet
FWA.
2.5.3 ITS to packet data network
Internet FWA requires that the E1 signal from the packet data network must
comply with the framing structure defined in ITU-T G.704 (see above for a
detailed reference). Time-slot zero contains a frame synchronization
signal, and the remaining 31 time-slots are joined together to provide a
connection with an aggregate capacity of 1984 kbit/s.

Annex D -Product Specifications
Purchase and License Agreement for FWA Equipment-December 2004
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The layer-2 tunnel between the ITS and the packet data network uses a
protocol stack consisting of the point-to-point protocol (PPP), Internet
protocol (IP), user datagram protocol (UDP) and the layer-2 tunneling
protocol (L2TP). These protocols are defined as follows:
o PPP: Internet engineering task force (IETF) STD 51, `The point to
point protocol'
o IP: IETF RFC 791, `Internet protocol'
o UDP: IETF RFC 768, `User datagram protocol'
o L2TP: IETF XXX 0000, `Layer two tunnelling protocol (L2TP)'
2.5.4 RDA to PC
The RDA provides a choice of two different serial data standards at the
PC-RDA interface:
o Asynchronous serial interface (commonly known as RS-232) as defined in
ANSI/TIA/EIA-232-F-1997, Interface Between Data Terminal Equipment and
Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment Employing Serial Binary Data
Interchange, and
o Universal Serial Bus (USB), using the `full-speed' option, as defined
in Universal Serial Bus specification, Rev. 1.1 and USB class
definitions for communications devices, Rev. 1.0.
2.5.5 Shortly after the introduction of the New F6 RSS unit the RDA will be
replaced with a dongle that will provide the same functionality as the
existing RDA unit.
2.6. Additional Specifications
2.6.1 In addition to the Product's Specifications set forth in this Annex D, the
Parties agree to include as part of this Annex D the Product's
Specifications that will be set forth in the Compact Discs to be named as:
(i) Internet Fixed Wireless Access, MR 14.0.3 "Customer Documentation
Suite" and (ii) Internet Fixed Wireless Access, Maintenance Release MR
14.0.3 System Line Up that will be delivered with MR14.03 in February 2003.
2.6.2 New RSS Unit
Summary of the RSS changes
The new Proximity RSS Unit shall have the same form, function and fit of both of
the current RSS Equipment jointly (the F2 and F5 based RSS equipment), pursuant
the specifications provided to Axtel by Airspan and Nortel Networks (as the
former manufacturer). The New RSS Unit will be known as the F6. The changes are
summarised as follows:
o Airspan shall supply a single variant of the RSS. In particular, all
RTUs will contain a packet data interface suitable for interconnection
with the existing RDA.

Annex D -Product Specifications
Purchase and License Agreement for FWA Equipment-December 2004
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
o The 48 volt indoor power supply, known as the RPCU, shall be revised
to remove unused functionality.
o The RTU environmental specification shall be changed so that the low
operating temperature limit will be -20 C rather than -40 C.
o The New RSS will incorporate the original Drop Cable Connector (NTEG
99GR)
Single variant RSS
In accordance with the Amendment Agreement No2, all New RSS Units will be
supplied with a packet data interface, i.e. the RSS will be `packet data ready'.
This will potentially enable Axtel to supply existing subscribers requesting the
packet data service with an RDA or equivalent device without the need for
replacing the XXX.
00 volt indoor power supply
It had been agreed that a revised solution for the indoor power supply will be
supplied. A number of solutions are possible, but relative to the current RPCU,
the following specification changes are included:
o Eliminate the mains buzzer functionality, which is understood to be
disabled by the Axtel installation teams.
o Remove the 2 secondary RJ11 sockets: It is understood that a remote
RJ11 Box is the preferred Axtel method of installation.
o Restrict the mains input voltage to Mexican requirements:
The current RPCU is designed for the global marketplace and operates with
input voltages from 85volts to 270volts ac. The power supply will be
redesigned specifically to suit Mexican requirements (88volts to 132 volts
ac). Output power ratings will remain unchanged.
o The RPCU plastics material will remain essentially unchanged, but will
incorporate additional spacer/wider lugs and the blanking of the fins
to reduce the likelihood of Water and Bug.
Should there be any changes in mechanical form of the power supply, these will
be agreed with Axtel in due course.
Change to RTU lower operating temperature limit
The RTU environmental specification will be changed so that the low operating
temperature limit will be -20 C rather than -40 C. This is believed to be
acceptable for deployments in Mexico.
Single outer sheath drop cable
For the avoidance of doubt there will be no change to the existing
specification, which already states the dual outer sheath drop cable.
F6 support in SR14.2
The F6 RTU will require a new software image and support for this will be
provided in the SR14.2 system release.

These Stock Products shall be kept by Axtel in its own facilities in Mexico
and Axtel shall manage such Stock Products at its sole discretion to create
a replacement process for damaged parts as a "Like for Like" replacement
process.
The Parties hereby agree that Airspan shall be obligated to increase the
Stock Products by one piece of the respective part number, if Airspan is
more than five (5) days late under section 1.2 of Part Two above, in the
repair and return of such part (this shall be accounted by pieces).
1.2.2 Axtel Responsibilities for Return and Replace Services
Axtel will be required to:
o Pay the expense of shipping a defective FRU to Airspan's warehouse or
logistic center defined for this purposes.
o Use the specifically-assigned part request number(s) provided by
Airspan and include completed Airspan Fault Report Forms when
returning any FRU
o Adhere to Airspan' packing instructions (including anti-static
precautions) when returning the defective unit. The packing
instructions will be included with the return instructions
accompanying the replacement FRU
o Put the replacement FRU into service once it has been returned by
Airspan to Axtel.
1.2.3 Assumptions for Repair Services
The following assumptions will govern the provision of repair Services for
Products covered by the warranty in the Warranty Period:
o Airspan will incur the expense of shipping the repaired unit or the
replacement unit to Axtel using a method and carrier selected by
Airspan. Airspan is responsible for loss of, or damage to, an FRU
while it is in Airspan' possession or in transit to Axtel, as well as
to pay all applicable duties, taxes, and other charges associated with
the importation of the repaired or replacement FRU into the country of
destination.
o Unless required for operational reasons and agreed upon with Airspan,
the replacement FRU will be at the then-current hardware and firmware
release levels as they are made Generally Available (GA) by Airspan.
Upon a specific request of Axtel for repair of a quantity of RTUs with
a specific software release version, the parties will work together to
define a mutually agreeable process to satisfy such specific request,
provided that such a process does not cause Airspan to incur any out
of pocket expenses or material additional cost.

Purchase and License Agreement for FWA Equipment (December 2004)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
o Warranty on FRU repaired by Airspan shall be limited to one hundred
and eighty (180) days from delivery of the repaired FRU or to the end
of the original warranty period, whichever is longer.
o The defective FRU returned to Airspan becomes the property of Airspan
and, subject to Airspan' receipt of the defective FRU, its replacement
becomes Axtel's property.
o Airspan reserves the right to reject the return of any FRU that does
not clearly display the specific part request Return Material
Authorization ("RMA") number or does not include the associated
completed Airspan fault report forms.
o Airspan will from time to time assess Products offered and supported.
The assessment will be based on technology, market development,
product deployment, and support requirements and may identify certain
Products that will be discontinued. Airspan reserves the right to
terminate any service purchased by Axtel for products that have been
discontinued. Subject to the terms and conditions of the FWA PLA,
continued support for any discontinued products beyond the effective
date of discontinuance may be provided in accordance with the terms
and conditions as stated in the FWA PLA.
o The service will be furnished by Airspan or a party authorized by
Airspan.
o As part of the repair service, Airspan will monitor all faulty product
returns for No Fault Found ("NFF") from Axtel. All repair cases
resulting in "no fault found" will not be charged to Axtel. In the
event that such Product presents again in the field within 180 days of
return date the same failures as noticed by Axtel, Airspan shall
repair or replace, within 60 days of receipt of the FRU, such Product
at its cost and expense.
o If, in the judgment of Airspan, the returned FRU has been damaged by
misuse, accident, modification or failure to maintain the proper
physical or operating environment or improper maintenance by Axtel,
then Airspan will return the defective un-repaired FRU to Axtel at
Axtel's expense.
o It is critical that Axtel regularly ship all defective Products to
Airspan, as and when defects are detected, to avoid the accumulation
of defective Products that will impact Airspan's ability to meet the
target turnaround times.
o In the case of Product replaced at Airspan discretion, and which would
be returned with a different Serial Number to Axtel, the proper
documentation shall be provided by Airspan for Axtel's asset controls
to evidence which serial number is replaced.
