The EXC‑002 is the indoor unit chassis for the Aviat Networks Eclipse microwave transport system, originally developed by Stratex Networks. It serves as the primary modular frame for Eclipse installations, housing plug‑in cards such as node controllers, radio access cards, data access cards, fan cards, and auxiliary modules. The chassis provides the backplane, power distribution, and mechanical platform needed to build configurable licensed‑band microwave backhaul nodes. The Eclipse platform is used in carrier‑grade point‑to‑point microwave networks and enables flexible combinations of Ethernet and TDM transport interfaces depending on system configuration.
