BusinessCom D-Star

Cost-efficient DVB/RCS VSAT
LinkStar is a two-way, bandwidth on-demand broadband VSAT system designed around DVB-RCS for service providers, ISPs, and corporate networks that brings more efficiency and higher data rates to the market than other TDMA systems. LinkStar combines broadband access and a high-speed return channel to satisfy bandwidth-intensive applications using IP data over any fixed satellite.

 

Main Principles
The customer installs a relatively small satellite antenna and the D-Star terminal to establish a 2-way Receive/Transmit link with the satellite connecting further to the Network Centre and a gateway in Europe.

The satellite Internet link can be up and running within couple of minutes after the installation and stays on 24/7, much like terrestrial leased line connection.

D-Star has been developed under a unique combination of skills in data networking, digital communications, satellite access, and network management to provide a low cost, scalable next generation satellite networking product.

The satellite terminal receives a broadband DVB outbound channel to 60Mbps and provides a broadband satellite return channel with speeds up to 1.2 Mbps. The MF-TDMA broadband return channel provides efficient bandwidth on demand and has DVB-RCS complaint turbo coding for enhanced throughput performance.
