management, which provides extensive security features including encryption and
access control based on industry proven security standards, such as SNMPv3, TLS
v1.2 secure tunneling, RADIUS client for centralized user account management
and much more.


“Since 2005, we have been offering security to the
microwave market in previous products. In fact, we have been a pioneer in
building security into licensed microwave, and with the release of our Eclipse
Strong Security, we offer the most comprehensive security suite in commercial
microwave,” says Shaun McFall, senior vice president and chief marketing
officer, Aviat Networks.


The security suite is developed in cooperation with Tier
1 service providers as well as leaders in other industries such as critical
infrastructure. The Eclipse Strong Security solution implements features that
go beyond current standards to ensure the highest level of security unique in
the microwave transmission market.
