Abstract
A multi-band network node has selectable backhaul/fronthaul configurations. Network nodes provide multi-band operation to take advantage of higher Internet speeds and to support lower latency (>2 Gbps, <4 ms latency) applications. A greater Wi-Fi device count (capacity) is supported by implementing communication over additional bands. Increased bandwidth is made available between connected nodes by selectively combining backhaul throughputs. Hardware quality-of-service (QoS) is provided by splitting traffic flows for low latency and data applications. Network coverage is extended by dynamic assignment of backhaul connections and by configuring unused backhauls as fronthauls.
