How are you connecting to the other site now?

What type of system is on the other end?

If you can provide more detail about both sites, a detailed answer can be given.

If you can add an MC32 and run IP Line without having to upgrade to CPPM Call Server, and MGC, then you could run IP Line between both sites and the radio link would just extend your IP network to both locations.

If you run E1, you will need to have some way of running the E1 end-to-end over the radio-link - some kind of E1 Mux / DeMux to preserve the E1 framing & signaling.

Ask your radio vendor what options he has available. I have seen microwave systems with Ethernet only, T1/E1 only, multiple (2-4) T1/E1 with Ethernet, etc. Cost, distance to cover, licensed/unlicensed, etc. are considerations. If you are in North America, T1 may be easier to get equipment for than E1.

Also, if you run any form of IP (MC32) on the rls 5.0 system you will need to upgrade to a CPPM. SSC cards are not supported in IP enabled Rls 5 systems.
