Comtech SLM-5650A Satellite Modem

Description

The Comtech SLM-5650A Satellite Modem is compliant with the strict requirements defined in MIL-STD-188-165A, modem types I, II, IV, V and VI for applications on DSCS, WGS and commercial satellites. The Comtech SLM-5650A Satellite Modem supports data rates from 8 kbps to 155 Mbps and symbol rates from 32 ksps to 64 Msps are supported. The Comtech SLM-5650A Satellite Modem provides standard MIL-STD-188-114 (EIA-530 / RS-422), and EIA-613 (HSSI) serial interfaces, and can be optionally configured to support G.703 and Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) serial interfaces. The Comtech SLM-5650A Satellite Modem can also optionally be equipped with a 4-port 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet Network Processor module that supports switching, routing and advanced Quality of Service protocols.

The Comtech SLM-5650A Satellite Modem can be integrated with the Vipersat Management System (VMS) to provide fully automated network and capacity management. An AES-256 TRANSEC module, compliant with the FIPS-140-2 NIST standard is also available as an option. All traffic (including overhead and all VMS control traffic) is encrypted when using the TRANSEC module. Advanced forward error correction (FEC) capabilities are a Comtech EF Data standard feature. Viterbi, Trellis, Concatenated Reed-Solomon, Sequential, Turbo Product Codes, and Low Density Parity Check codes (LDPC) are all supported.
