SKYWAN Satellite Router
SKYWAN is a highly flexible and versatile MF-TDMA VSAT system for establishing wide area networks. Acting either as IP routers or Frame Relay switches - or both at the same time -
the SKYWAN network integrates seamlessly. It enables mobile and transportable applications with the smallest antennas and highest performance. Through its fully dynamic bandwidth allocation scheme SKYWAN provides instant bandwidth-on-demand for superior voice and high definition video quality. SKYWAN transmits traffic bursts with dynamic data rates from 64 Kbit/s up to 100 Mbit/s per site and enables high speed, hub-less communication between all sites. Any site can be reached via a single satellite hop connection supporting fully meshed network topologies.
SKYWAN Product Lines
ND SatCom offers two VSAT system product lines that have MF-TDMA in common:SKYWAN 7000 seriesSKYWAN 5GAt a first glance, these two independent products seem to be identical and 1:1 replaceable. However, in addition to all the common capabilities for building meshed VSAT network topologies, these products differ significantly: the satellite interfaces are not compatible because SKYWAN 5G is designed for a new configuration concept, differing protocol implementations in TDMA and higher layers like discontinuation of the Frame Relay service and new network wide IP QoS mechanisms linked to VRF domains.Both VSAT system product lines are active and ND SatCom maintains and provides long term support for both product lines.     SKYWAN 7000 seriesSKYWAN 7000 series is the feature rich flagship product with a long success story in reliable governmental networks, fully redundant air traffic control networks but also COTM scenarios.SKYWAN 7000 series was introduced with the new Turbo-Phi coding and since then many new features were added. The modular SKYWAN modems come in many variants and chassis types tuned for specific scenarios.SKYWAN 7000 series modems are deployed in networks where reliability is key. Extensions to monitor ODUs, dedicated interfaces to Redundancy Control Units and protocol extensions to ensure fully redundant node designs for all used services characterize this product line.With multiple interfaces for Frame Relay (UNI and NNI) the SKYWAN
modems provide seamless service integration with additional IP traffic. The frame relay switch integrated in SKYWAN
modems gives lowest overhead for end-to-end real-time services using selected external Frame Relay Access Devices for a plurality of legacy voice, video, radar and data user devices. Protocol extensions are implemented to allow special signaling with Access Devices for voice call and voice codec processing leading to satellite bandwidth savings.For networks with highest security demands, the SKYWAN 7000 series provides strong encryption (AES-256) in hardware on TDMA level with no performance penalty, and even comes in variants for WGS and FIPS 140-2 level 3 certified nodes.SKYWAN 7000 series supports COTM waveforms with verified COTM antenna systems where mobility is a must for some or even all network nodes.
SKYWAN 5G SKYWAN 5G is the new All-IP platform that targets commercial markets like cellular backhauling and service providers requiring virtual routing capabilities to serve multiple customers per terminal or are demanding for high IP throughput in star or mesh networks.With SKYWAN 5G each node may become TDMA network controller, or allows DVB-S2 transmissions to/from every node or even scale performance like a hub when using the cascading option.SKYWAN 5G is evolving and following its own roadmap with innovative features. Examples for new exiting features are increase to 16 TDMA channels with load balancing, integrated node redundancy or virtual routing functions (VRF). With DVB-S2 in addition a mix of transmission technologies opens the sky to get more throughput and new kinds of applications that avoids a central hub and traffic bottlenecks.SKYWAN 5G is the product of choice by our partners when integrating it into lightweight flyaway mesh capable terminals.
Get all-in-one - the reliable ONE solutionGain flexible topology - star to mesh networks with virtual SCPC connectionsGain space & portability - smallest unit availableGain powerful performance - with easy interfaceGenerate savings - lower cost of ownershipThe SKYWAN 5G represents the fifth generation of the SKYWAN product family. SKYWAN 5G transforms the way communication networks are created and behave by merging VSAT & comprehensive IT capabilities into ONE hardware device. SKYWAN 5G enables the most flexible, scalable and reliable VSAT networks ever. SKYWAN 5G is an MF-TDMA modem with integrated DVB-S2 receiver, allowing data to be transmitted in a single hop directly from their origin to their destination. Whatever type of network you request, from star to mesh or point-to-point, SKYWAN 5G reliably fits all topologies. One compact hardware and one identical software for all network roles simplify logistics, making hardware and software changes superfluous. SKYWAN 5G's unprecedented scalability enables growth of your network in a very cost-efficient manner.
