ViaSat LinkStar Terminals..Overview and specificationsLinkStar™ is the highest performance, star-based VSAT system for service providers, ISPs, and corporate network managers who are seeking a system based on DVB standards. LinkStar's edge is in its dynamic bandwidth allocation that makes it more efficient and faster than other TDMA systems. Terminals can transmit data to the network hub at speeds up to 1.15 Mbps, with data downloads of up to 60 Mbps, satisfying bandwidth-intensive applications using IP data. LinkStar offers several benefits: -The highest return channel rate on the market. LinkStar: Bandwidth-On-Demand Broadband VSAT System: LinkStarTM is a two-way, bandwidth-on-demand broadband VSAT system for service providers, ISPs, and corporate networking that brings you more efficiency and higher data rates than other TDMA systems. The forward channel provides a total capacity of 60 Mbps, and return channels to the hub can operate at speeds up to 1.15 Mbps. LinkStar combines broadband access and a high-speed return channel to satisfy bandwidth-intensive applications using IP data over existing C- and Ku-band FSS satellites. How does LinkStar provide these benefits? Comsat Laboratories Technology Innovation for Satellite Communications? Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation combined with guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) and TCP acceleration features make LinkStar more efficient and faster than other TDMA systems. The combination automatically increases the speed of your return channel to give you the throughput you need. With the highest return channel data rate in the industry there is plenty of room to send even large multimedia files fast. Near DVB-RCS + Turbo Coding enables you to use your satellite bandwidth more efficiently and further increases return channel throughput. DVB-based Architecture. As a DVB-based platform, LinkStar enables service providers and satellite operators worldwide to build standards-based networks for IP data, Internet access, video streaming, telemedicine, voice over IP, or distance learning. Simple Web-based Network Management connects from a standard browser to configure, control, and manage your VSAT network. The Regional Network Control Center (RNCC) also provides traffic statistics, call detail records, and an SNMP interface. Operators can download software to remote terminals without site visits. The system can scale to 10,000 sites per RNCC and up to 100,000 network nodes using multiple hubs. LinkStar is your way to reach more of the world with multimedia broadband. LinkStar can operate over C- or Ku-band frequencies, and is scalable to small or large networks. A Web-based NMS makes it simple to operate and easy to configure.
