UHP-230 Satellite Modem

Description

The UHP-230 Satellite Modem is a universal VSAT modem with Software-Defined Architecture pioneered by UHP Networks. The UHP-230 Satellite Modem packs industry-highest processing capability into a very compact size with power consumption under 12W whilst processing up to 450 Mbps of aggregate traffic. The UHP-230 Satellite Modem comprises two DVB demodulators, four TDMA burst demodulators, a universal TDMA/SCPC modulator and a powerful IP router capable of processing over 190,000 IP packets per second (PPS). The UHP-230 Satellite Modem is the Industry’s most compact full-scale 1U Hub with scalable MF-TDMA channels which can operate as a star or mesh TDM/TDMA remote or as a Tx/Rx SCPC IP modem and more.

The UHP-230 Satellite Modem is a truly universal router which can operate as a star or mesh TDM/TDMA remote or as a Tx/Rx SCPC IP modem, or as a node in a Hubless TDMA (full mesh) network, or as a building block (universal controller) in a large TDM/TDMA Hub. This unique device can work as a fully-fledged TDM/TDMA Hub with one Outbound TDM and up to 4 Inbound TDMA carriers.

Multiple demodulators allow simultaneous reception of two DVB (TDM or SCPC) carriers and a group of up to 4 mesh TDMA carriers from two distinct satellite beams or from two antennas. This makes UHP-230 an optimum choice for TDMA Mesh networks and also for hierarchical networks with multiple DVB carriers.

The UHP-230 Satellite Modem is supplied in a compact 1U chassis for installation in a standard 19 inch rack. Built-in AC power supply with high power rating and 10 MHz frequency reference ensure reliable operation of the router itself and of the outdoor RF equipment from multiple vendors. Low power consumption, optional DC power input, and uniquely fast start on power-up facilitate use of alternative power sources, such as solar batteries.
