UHP-100 Satellite Modem

Description

The UHP-100 Satellite Modem is a high-performance Satellite modem/router designed specifically for large-scale deployment in broadband VSAT networks operating over High Throughput Satellites. The UHP-100 Satellite Modem can process up to 150 000 IP packets per second, 220 Mbps of traffic and two carriers up to 500 Msps. The UHP-100 Satellite Modem achieves this in a super-compact form factor, with low power consumption (less than 8W) and the most efficient utilization of the satellite resource. The UHP-100 features up to 256APSK modulation, 5% spectral roll-off, adaptive modulation and coding, adaptive power control and 96% efficient TDMA protocol.

The UHP-100 Satellite modem is equipped with two high-speed demodulators together with their independent IF inputs and front ends. The UHP-100 Satellite modem can simultaneously receive two carriers transmitted via two different satellite beams, which can even be in different frequency bands. The dual demodulator in conjunction with a built-in advanced beam switching algorithm facilitates seamless roaming of mobile satellite terminals between distinct beams of HTS satellites.

The main application for UHP-100 is broadband, SCADA and multimedia connectivity in large VSAT networks using HTS. The terminal interworks with the latest generation of scalable UHP TDM/TDMA Hubs. Small size, low power consumption and low count of active electronic components ensure highest reliability with over 200 000 hours MTBF.

The UHP-100 Satellite Modem features:

• High-performance TDM/TDMA Satellite Router with aggregate throughput up to 225 Mbps
• Two independent DVB demodulators with separate IF inputs and rate up to 500 Msps
• Efficient DVB-S2/S2X ACM modulations with 5% or 20% roll-off and support for HTS
• MF-TDMA modulator with innovative protocol and proven efficiency of 96% compared to SCPC
• Adaptive coding and modulation and transmission power control in forward and return channels
• Dual satellite or dual band operations with dynamic traffic balancing and automatic beam switching
