ND SATCOM’s established reputation in the defence industry for high security, reliability and engineering innovation underpinned new deals for the company with a major Asian country.
Mission-critical new features and capabilities clinched the deals, in particular the company’s True-Mesh ACM, Any-to-All Mesh functionality and full DVB Redundancy. With the recent launch of SKYWAN 5G Release 2.0; the selling feature of True-Mesh ACM has garnered a great amount of interest, according to the firm.
Providing the highest link reliability regardless of weather, ND SATCOM’s exclusive True-Mesh ACM provides 64x boost throughput with a single hop — even from remote-to-remote as well as the ability to flexibly decide on network topology via three modem types within the same 1U hardware: Hubless true-mesh MF-TDMA, DVB-S2 or the new SCPC links with highly efficient point-to-point connection. The four year software support package with this release ensures business continuity and cybersecurity.

Other highlights in the company’s technology arsenal include ND SATCOM’s Any-to-All Mesh functionality. ND SATCOM also features hubs in “hot-hot” standby whereby geo-redundancy occurs in milliseconds, an almost instantaneous switch to ensure seamless communication in mission-critical networks. Additionally, the new full DVB Redundancy is representing the next generation of security and flexibility that defence customers seek.
“The new full DVB Redundancy, an advanced customer-specific adaption of our SKYWAN DVB option, gained immediate traction,” said Michael Weixler, Director of Product Management and Training. “Featuring DVB-S2 transmitters at two different locations is transformative for tactical networks. Strong interest was also registered for our advanced option featuring two DVB-S2 transmitters in one location. Together with all our latest innovations, we have raised the bar again for seamless satellite communication no matter the location, no matter the conditions.”
