IDC Casts Their SuperFlex Net + Grabs Follow-On Contract


International Datacasting Corporation has received a follow-on order from a leading aerospace and defence contractor for the Company’s new DVB-S2 dual tuner integrated receiver and decoder (IRD), the SuperFlex SFX3104-L. The order, valued at $800,000 CAD, when combined with an initial order received in the Company’s second quarter, brings the total value for this project to $1.4 million CAD to date. The SFX 3104-L is a new compact, lightweight configuration in IDC’S SuperFlex line of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products. This IRD has dual DVB-S2 tuners to support built-in redundancy and/or receive two unique broadcasts simultaneously, as well as integrated Irdeto conditional access and decryption capabilities. The unit has been qualified for (and ordered in support of) an ongoing U.S. government communications program providing secure, high-speed, broadband IP connectivity to U.S. forces and government agencies in the field.
