Optional Ethernet Remote Interface
Legacy PSM-4900 Compatible
Built-in 1:1 Redundancy (BUC Power & Reference)
Internal BUC/LNB Power & Reference
The PSM-500LT provides BUC and LNB power from an integrated power supply. A High Stability 10 MHz reference is also provided through the modem Transmit (N-Type) and Receive (F-Type) connections at the rear. Reference, BUC and LNB power can be disabled via the front panel. Front panel voltage and current measurements are available for BUC and LNB monitoring.
FEC Options
FEC types include Viterbi, Trellis, Reed Solomon, Turbo Product Codes (both 4K & 16K block sizes) and the most Flexible LDPC on the market today. In addition, the PSM-500LT has the largest selection of code rates and block sizes. Available LDPC block sizes include 256, 512, 1k, 2k, 4k, 8k & 16k.
Performance
Sophisticated digital signal processing eliminates all on board physical adjustments and provides performance within 0.3 dB of theoretical. Datum’s unique DSP design also delivers the world’s fastest SCPC carrier acquisition.
Key Enabled Upgrades
The PSM-500LT can be upgraded via front panel key codes. Upgrades are simple to implement and are available in preconfigured software versions, which offer a variety of options for modulation, FEC and data rates up to 29.5Mbps.
Redundancy
Built-in 1:1 redundancy comes standard on the PSM-500LT and supports BUC/LNB power and reference switching. It can be enabled through the front panel and requires only a few external cables and power splitters.
Front Panel & Diagnostics
The modem front panel provides a backlit LCD display, full keypad and LED indicators for monitor and control of all modem parameters. The PSM-500LT also has advanced monitor and BERT functions available to the user for quick field diagnostics.
