The SatLink 2000 is the newest and most advanced DVB-RCS VSAT Indoor Unit, with IP throughput up to 30 Mbps, support for DVB-S2, and expanded DVB-RCS support for 8PSK modulation. Optionally, return links may use the new DVB-RCS NG (Next Generation) Modem with high-performance MODCODs and encapsulation. Optimized for IP networking, its cost-effective design, packaging, and easy operation make it ideal for Internet access services to consumers and small businesses; yet it has the advanced QoS, traffic acceleration, VPNs and other value-added software features required for carrier-class interactive data, voice, and video conferencing, plus multicast IP applications. Users are connected via Ethernet.  The SatLink 2000 supports various antenna options, plus BUCs/LNBs in C, Ku, Ka and EHF bands, including STM’s own Ku Band transceivers. See complete datasheet below.

The SatLink 2000 VSAT is a member of a family of SatLink products and systems from STM enabling scalable, high-availability DVB-RCS networks optimized for Internet Protocol (IP) communications, including: VSATs, turnkey hub & gateway systems, hub components, and value-added options for advanced data, voice and video networking via satellite.

STM is the technology and market leader in DVB-RCS satellite networks delivering superior performance for telecom service providers, ISPs, governments and enterprises around the world. STM also offers teleport services, installation and integration services, plus total managed network services.

Features & Benefits :

Cost-Effective, High-Performance VSAT

SatLink 2000 offers unique performance benefits such as throughput up to 30 Mbps and QPSK, 8PSK and 16QAM with high-gain 16-state Turbo code FECs on TDMA return links up to 5 Msps.

Simple, Consumer-Friendly Operation

Engineered for plug & play operation and simple enough for self-installation, the SatLink 2000 allows all necessary software updates and remote management via satellite from the hub.

Comprehensive IP Networking Features

SatLink delivers TCP and HTTP acceleration, VPN, NAT, and VLAN options, plus a built-in DHCP server and both unicast and multicast IP routing.

Advanced QoS for Data, Voice, Video

QoS Groups for bandwidth-on-demand enable delay sensitive traffic for interactive media concurrently with bulk data, without dedicating bandwidth per VSAT.

Compact, Fanless Packaging

Its small size, fanless design, and external power supply, make it ideal for desktop and residential uses.

Bandwidth Efficiency at Many Levels

Advanced DVB-S2 modulation and FEC, header compression, section packing & intelligent bandwidth-on-demand algorithms enable efficient broadband
applications; the unit consumes only 64 bps when idle, 0 bps in “auto-sleep” mode.

ACM and Rain Fade Mitigation

Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM) on forward links and adaptive FEC and symbol rate on return links increase bandwidth efficiency and improves link
margins to mitigate rain fades.

Traffic Engineering for Large Networks

Carriers, ISPs and others gain control over bandwidth resources in large networks using SatLink VSAT Groups for traffic engineering. Networks with 10,000’s of VSATs are supported, and can be managed by many Virtual Network Operators (VNOs) each with control over their VSATs, QoS and bandwidth management policies.

BUCs up to 3 Watts with Power Control

Internal power for BUCs up to 3 Watts; automatic power control from the hub simplifies installation,  and
optimizes operation and bandwidth use.
