Enhancing Satellite Modems

Product Photo CollageAvailable to enhance the functionality of our satellite modems are a variety of accessories, including 1:1 and 1:N redundancy switches, interface converters, IP-enabled monitor & control interfaces, and more.

 

1:1 Redundancy Switches – Companion products to our Satellite Modems. Their purpose is to continuously monitor a pair of modems in a redundant configuration, so that the unit automatically switches data and IF signals from the failed unit to the standby unit if an equipment failure or undesired traffic condition occurs.

Product Image1:N Redundancy Switches –Provide fully automatic or manual protection of traffic circuits in the case of equipment failure. They are primarily intended for hub applications, and are compatible with a variety of Comtech EF Data Satellite Modems. The protection system consists of traffic modems, a redundant modem and a redundancy switch. Optional IF switches are available for multiple transponders or multiple satellite applications.

ICS-75 Combiner Shelf – Consists of four IF combiners and four IF splitters built into the same chassis.  Operating in the IF frequency range of 50 to 180 MHz, the ICS-75 organizes the mass of cables and individual splitter/combiners usually associated with earth station IF racks into one convenient package.

CiM-25 IP-Enabled Monitor & Control – Low-cost solution for providing an Internet Protocol (IP) Monitor & Control (M&C) interface for existing Comtech EF Data satellite modems and frequency converters.  The CiM-25 provides a proxy interface between IP and the equipment’s existing serial remote control interface.

EQ-90 Group Delay/Amplitude Equalizers – Used in satellite transmit/receive terminals to compensate for non-linear delay distortions and amplitude slope generated by the satellite, filters, waveguide, or inter-facility links. Fully compliant with Domsat and Intelsat/CCIR standards, these units interface readily with the uplink/downlink chain.
