Asia-Pacific telecom hires Comtech EF for bandwidth compression services

Comtech EF Data Corp. (a subsidiary of Comtech Telecommunications Corp.) secured an order for bandwidth compression services from a telecommunications service provider in Asia-Pacific worth $1.5 million.


Comtech EF's DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier will facilitate the network expansion of the Asia-Pacific service provider. This will allow the latter to open up bandwidth space to deliver new, affordable services to potential customers inrural villages.



Satellite bandwidth prices in Asia are on the rise. In response, service providers looked for technology solutions that can boost throughput and minimize OPEX. Such solutions allow providers to maintain their competitive edge while also leaving bandwidth room to also offer affordable services to cost-conscious customers.

With Comtech EF's help, the unnamed Asia-Pacific service provider will upgrade their DMD50 Universal Satellite Modems with DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier. Using "Adaptive Cancellation" technology patented by Raytheon Applied Signal Technology, the Comtech EF bandwidth compression solution allows a duplex link's transmit and receive carriers to use the same transponder space.

The DoubleTalk upgrade will allow a single transponder to perform the job of two transponders. This saves money for the service provider, which no longer needs to buy new hardware. And DoubleTalk-upgraded transponders become even more effective when combined with advanced forward error correction and modulation techniques that minimize disruption and improve transmissions.

Considered the world's leading company when it comes to satellite bandwidth efficiency and link optimization, Comtech EF Data Corp. provides advanced satellite communication solutions for very-small-aperture terminal (VSAT) systems, bandwidth management, modems, RAN & WAN optimization, and RF products. Comtech EF solutions like the DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier product lets commercial and government customers to boost throughput without breaking the bank.
