Network Design
When designing a fixed wireless, our priority is meeting your application requirements as well as our standards for performance and reliability. We have active networks using dozens of different satellite modem, antenna and spacecraft technologies, each tailored to the client’s unique specifications.
SELECTING THE BEST TECHNOLOGY
We select only thoroughly tested and field-proven technology platforms and architectures. To meet the varied needs of our clients, we employ three main types of satellite networking solutions.
MULTI-POINT ASYMMETRIC NETWORKS
Multi-point Asymmetric Networks use a combination of an SCPC dedicated link for the inbound transmissions and a much larger shared Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) carrier for outbound communications. The shared outbound TDM bandwidth is generally shared only among sites of a specific client, effectively making it a private cloud for receive-only traffic. In this approach, the data rate for the inbound link is a true CIR, as with an SCPC link.
PRIVATE CLOUD NETWORK
Multi-point Private Networks or Private Cloud Networks use Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) technology carriers for both inbound and outbound bandwidth. This approach can be considerably more efficient than a Dedicated Link or Asymmetric Network solution. It allows the client to determine the amount of bandwidth that is shared (or contended) by its own sites, and therefore control the overall quality of service.
