SATELLITE MODEM BOARD
Newtec SMB3310 Satellite Modem Board
The Newtec SMB3310 Satellite Modem Board is a two-way, high
throughput satellite modem board suitable for integration into highly
compact COTM terminals for the government and defense, broadcast
and mobility markets.
It offers unprecedented performance in a modem board, supports a
broad array of mobility capabilities and is fully equipped to operate
on HTS spot beams satellites.
Technology Flexibility for Tailored Services
With a symbol rate of up to 500 Mbaud and coding from QPSK
to 64APSK in the forward channel, the SMB3310 enables network
operators to set-up almost any type and size of network on any type
of satellite.
For the return channel, there are three different return technologies to
choose from depending on the type of application.
The modem supports DVB-S2X SCPC in the return, which allows for
highly efficient, medium to very high rate, dedicated return bandwidth
for applications such as high-speed IP backbones, cellular backhauling,
trunking, maritime, mobility and file and video contributions.
The MF-TDMA mode enables low rate, overbooked and bursty traffic
profiles for inactive sites in business continuity networks or can be
used for always-on connectivity in occasional use networks.
The third mode, Newtec’s patented Mx-DMA®, combines the best
of both worlds and bridges the gap between MF-TDMA and SCPC.
With Mx-DMA, satellite bandwidth is allocated dynamically in real-
time depending on traffic demand, Quality of Service (QoS) profiles
and link conditions. Changes are seamless without packet loss or
additional jitter. This allows services with continuously changing rates

to be dealt with in the same way as if MF-TDMA had been used, but at
SCPC efficiency. Mx-DMA allows network operators to deploy anything
ranging from dedicated to low-to-medium overbooked services at any
given time at minimum space capacity cost.
Having the choice between these three return technologies in a
network within a single modem guarantees network operators a
business model with maximum flexibility in supported applications,
responsiveness to new market opportunities and Service Level
Agreement (SLA) schemes that fit customers’ needs.
