UHP-240 Satellite Modem

Description

The UHP-240 Satellite Modem is a universal VSAT dual modem with Software-Defined Architecture pioneered by UHP Networks. The UHP-240 Satellite Modem packs industry-highest processing capability into a very compact size with two integrated satellite routers. Each UHP-240 Satellite Modem can process up to 450 Mbps of aggregate traffic and comprises two DVB demodulators, four TDMA burst demodulators, two universal TDMA/SCPC modulators and two powerful IP routers capable of processing over 190,000 IP packets per second (PPS). The high processing capability allows implementation of uniquely efficient protocols for network access, resource allocation and data encapsulation as well as support for advanced modulation and coding.

UHP-240 is a truly universal router which can operate as a star or mesh remote or as a SCPC modem, or as a node in a Hubless TDMA network. This unique device can work as a fully-fledged TDM/TDMA Hub with two Outbound TDM and up to 8 Inbound TDMA carriers. Dual UHP-240 router is a good choice for 1:1 redundant Hubs and terminals.

UHP-240 is a building block in HTS Hubs and provides two Universal Controllers (UC). Each controller may act as an Outroute or Inroute controller, as well as a standby UC. The universal controllers work under management of HTS-NMS with Smart Redundancy that selects the right number of available UCs and assigns to them functions required in order to achieve a specified network configuration.

UHP-240 dual satellite router is supplied in a compact 1U chassis for installation in a standard 19 inch rack. Each built-in router has independent interfaces and own power supply ensuring reliable operations 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.
