CDM-570A/570AL Satellite Modem with Optional Packet Processor

MN-CDM570A

Introduction

Revision 2

1–15

Parameter

Specification

Scrambling

Transparent, Closed Network mode, no R-S or Turbo coding - per ITU V.35 (Intelsat variant)

EDMAC mode, no R-S coding - externally frame synchronized - proprietary

Turbo Product Code mode - externally frame synchronized - proprietary

All R-S modes - externally frame synchronized per IESS-308/309/310

Clocking Options

Internal – CDM-570AL or CDMR-570AL (L-Band)±0.06 ppm (SCT);

CDM-570A (70/140 MHz) ±1.0 ppm (SCT)

External – Locking over a ±100 ppm range (TT)

Loop timing (Rx satellite clock) – Supports asymmetric operation; Rx and Tx data rates do not need to be

identical

External TX Carrier Off

By TTL 'low' signal or external contact closure – hardware function automatically over-rides processor, or by

RTS signal on main data interface

Output Impedance

CDM-570AL or CDMR-570AL (L-Band): 50Ω, >17 dB from 950 to 2250 MHz and >19 dB from 1000 to 1900

MHz minimum return loss
CDM-570A (70/140 MHz): Compatible with 50Ω or 75Ω,17 dB minimum return loss

for Automatic Uplink Power Control.
CDM-570A (70/140 MHz): 0 to -25 dBm, 0.1 dB steps - manual mode. Also – see Sect. 1.2.6 for Automatic

Uplink Power Control.

Power Accuracy

CDM-570AL or CDMR-570AL (L-Band): ±1.0 dB over frequency, data rate, modulation type and

temperature
CDM-570A (70/140 MHz): ±0.5 dB over frequency, data rate, modulation type and temperature
