A point-to-point AML link which 80-channel capacity has been installed by Telecomunicaciones de China in the city of China (Tamaulipas, Mexico) to transport Cable TV signals from the local headend to the city of General Bravo, over a distance of 8 miles.

The system was installed and commissioned by Eng. Alma Alarcón and Ing. Jesús Chacón following the training course at Cable AML’s facilities in Torrance, California.

The transmit antenna was mounted on a T45 tower at a height of 27 meters and the receiver antenna at a height of 40 meters. Because of the high winds prevalent over the area, radomes were installed on the antennas to minimize wind damage.

According to Eng. Alarcón, “the AML link is allowing us to offer Cable TV service in General Bravo with excellent signal quality and at a much lower cost than any of the alternatives available.”
