Comtech Heights HRX-16-R Remote Multichannel Receiver

Description

HRX-16-R is intended to be used at remote sites along with Heights Remote Gateways for Dynamic MESH. HRX-16-R includes 8 receivers enabling a remote site to dynamically MESH with up to 8 other remote sites with H8 or H16 Remote Gateways.
Occasional, dynamic mesh connections between remote sites is supported by remote-to remote Single Hop Connections on Demand (SHOD) in router mode operation, using additional receivers at the remote. Dynamic Mesh eliminates double hop latency as remote to-remote packets don’t have to transit through the hub. It also requires 50% less bandwidth as a remote-to-remote double hop link would consume almost twice the bandwidth.

The Heights™ Networking Platform is engineered to elevate your services with unparalleled horsepower, efficiency and intelligence. The Features within the platform were designed with the service provider and its multi-tenant environments in mind, from concept to operation.
We combine our most efficient waveforms, header and payload compression engines, proven dynamic bandwidth and power management along with bi-directional ACM capability to provide the highest user throughput, highest availability, and most optimal resource utilization available in the industry.

It is designed to meet the demands of those operating on traditional wide beams while providing distinct advantages for those with High Throughput Satellites (HTS) in their futures. Heights is HTS ready, providing the lowest cost highest throughput solution for feeder link teleports supporting fixed or remote terminals, scaling from tens to thousands of sites economically.

Dynamic Mesh Connectivity Between Remotes
Heights supports dynamic remote-to-remote connections (MESH) in router mode with dSCPC, using additional receivers at the remote.

Dynamic MESH requires “loop-back” operation where each site in a MESH connection is able to receive from all other sites in that MESH connection. Dynamic MESH eliminates double hop latency as remote-to-remote packets don’t have to transit through the hub. It also requires 50% less bandwidth as a remote-to-remote double hop link would consume almost twice the bandwidth.
