Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : CMTL CMTL Chief Military Training Leader CMTL Center for Mathematics, Teaching and Learning ) announced today that its Tempe, Arizona-based subsidiary, Comtech EF Data Corp., was awarded a $1.6 million order from a government agency for satellite communications equipment. The equipment will be deployed to upgrade and extend the agency's satellite-based network. Included in the order is a range of Comtech EF Data equipment tailored to the requirements of government users, including SLM-5650 Satellite Modems A device used to transmit and receive signals from a satellite transponder. For transmission, it modulates digital data signals from a multiplexing device into a carrier frequency for delivery to an upconverter, amplifier and antenna. , High-Power Outdoor Amplifiers and Redundancy Switches. The SLM-5650 Satellite Modem is designed to comply with the strict requirements of the Defense Satellite Communications System Geosynchronous military communications satellites that provide high data rate communications for military forces, diplomatic corps, and the White House. The Defense Satellite Communications System provides long-haul super-high frequency 7/8 gigahertz voice and high data rate defined in MIL-STD-188-165A, modem types I, II, IV, V and VI. This high-speed modem supports data rates up to 155 Mbps, and offers flexible interfaces including Gigabit Ethernet An Ethernet standard that transmits at 1 Gbps. Used mostly to connect high-end workstations and servers as well as for network backbones, Gigabit Ethernet transmits full duplex from point to point using switches and half duplex in a shared environment (CSMA/CD) using a hub. , advanced forward error correction A communications technique that can correct bad data on the receiving end. Before transmission, the data are processed through an algorithm that adds extra bits for error correction. If the transmitted message is received in error, the correction bits are used to repair it. and higher order modulation. It is compact and rugged, ideally suited for many government and military applications. The High-Power Outdoor Amplifiers are Solid-State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs) from Comtech EF Data's Outdoor Amplifier line. Part of an extensive RF product offering, the High-Power Outdoor Amplifiers are rugged in construction, conservative in thermal design and well-proven in challenging operating environments. "This order is another example of the government's confidence in Comtech to supply equipment for the satellite-based networks of the future," said Fred Kornberg, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comtech Telecommunications Corp. Comtech EF Data Corporation manufactures a broad spectrum of satellite communications products, including Satellite Modems, Bandwidth & Capacity Management, TCP/IP TCP/IP in full Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol Standard Internet communications protocols that allow digital computers to communicate over long distances.
