[Via Satellite 10-28-13] Advantech Wireless has released its new S6920 Ruggedized SCPC/RCS VSAT Terminal. Built to withstand the harsh environments encountered in outdoor applications, the S6920 terminal is a complete DVB-RCS/SCPC modem designed to be installed as an outdoor unit.

Fully weatherized, designed without fans and temperature certified up to +65 degrees Celsius, it can be used in very harsh climates such as Arctic and desert environments, oil rigs, maritime applications and military locations. Advantech Wireless’s S6920 VSAT terminals are both DVB-SCPC capable and DVB-RCS compliant, providing point-to-point or point-to-multipoint IP connectivity.

The modem accepts standard IP data on its Ethernet port, and is optimized to achieve high-performance and quick response time for professional, enterprise and governmental applications.

The S6920 supports multi-modes of operation: DVB-S2 (CCM) SCPC point-to-point, DVB-S or DVB-S2 SCPC (ACM, VCM, CCM) and DVB-RCS point-to-multipoint. This provides the flexibility to meet a variety of network topologies with a single modem solution and allows transitioning from one to another using the same terminal infrastructure.
