[Satellite TODAY 01-23-13] ViaSat has unveiled its ViaSat CBM-100 modem – a smaller version of its LinkWayS2 satellite modem. The CBM-100 comes as an embeddable card set for use in more tactical applications. It is designed to maintain its superior latency and jitter performance while operating in full mesh configurations at the industry’s highest MF-TDMA throughput rates.

   ViaSat CBM-100 has a less than 45-watt, 9 x 7.75 x 2.5 inch configuration, which supports all features and functions of LinkWay software versions 8.3 and 9.x, including newly developed communications on-the-move (COTM) profiles and networking efficiency enhancements. The modem will be available for order in June 2013.
