ViaSat... Tac Apps + Smaller Form Factors (SATCOM)


/> [SatNews] ViaSat Inc. (Nasdaq: VSAT) has introduced a small form factor version of its...

...LinkWayS2 satellite modem that enables it to occupy less space than the standard, rack-mount 1 RU chassis. The ViaSat CBM-100 modem is an embeddable card set for use in more tactical applications. The small form factor ViaSat CBM-100, a less than 45-watt, 9 x 7.75 x 2.5 inch configuration, is designed to maintain its superior latency and jitter performance while operating in full mesh configurations at the industry’s highest MF-TDMA throughput rates. The new modem configuration will support all features and functions of LinkWay® software versions 8.3 and 9.x, including newly developed Communications On-The-Move (COTM) profiles and networking efficiency enhancements. Targeted for terminal and integrated baseband kit embedment, the ViaSat CBM-100 will be available for order in June 2013.
