OVERVIEW
The CDM-570A and the CDM-570AL are our next generation satellite modems that provide industry-leading performance and flexibility in a 1 RU package at a very competitive price. With support for VersaFEC® low latency LDPC Forward Error Correction (FEC), the revolutionary DoubleTalk® Carrier-in-Carrier® bandwidth compression, and optimized transmit filter rolloffs, the CDM-570A and CDM-570AL provide significant bandwidth savings. This combination of advanced technologies enables multi-dimensional optimization, allowing satellite communications users to:
- Minimize operating expenses (OPEX)
- Maximize throughput without using additional transponder resources
- Maximize availability (margin) without using additional transponder resources
- Minimize capital expenses (CAPEX) by allowing a smaller BUC/amplifier and/or antenna
- Or, a combination to meet specific business needs
The modems are available with 70/140 MHz or L-Band IF and EIA-530/-422, V.35, sync EIA- 232 and G.703 T1/E1 data interfaces. The CDM-570A/L-IP include a high-performance packet processor for IP-centric applications.

DOUBLETALK CARRIER-IN-CARRIER
DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier, based on patented “Adaptive Cancellation” technology, allows transmit and receive carriers of a duplex link to share the same transponder bandwidth. DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier is complementary to all advances in modem technology, including advanced FEC and modulation techniques. As these technologies approach theoretical limits of power and bandwidth efficiencies, DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier utilizing advanced signal processing techniques provides a new dimension in bandwidth efficiency.
Figure 1 shows the typical full-duplex satellite link, where the two carriers are adjacent to each other.
Figure 2 shows the typical DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier operation, where the two carriers are overlapping, thus sharing the same spectrum.
When observed on a spectrum analyzer, only the Composite is visible. Carrier 1 and Carrier 2 are shown in Figure 2 for reference only.
As DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier allows equivalent spectral efficiency using a lower order modulation and/or code rate, it can reduce the power required to close the link thereby reducing CAPEX by allowing a smaller BUC/amplifier and/or antenna. Alternatively, DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier can be used to achieve very high spectral efficiencies E.g., DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier when used with 16-QAM approaches the bandwidth efficiency of 256-QAM.
When combined with VersaFEC or TPC and optimized transmit filter rolloffs, DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier provides unprecedented savings in transponder bandwidth and power utilization. This allows for its successful deployment in bandwidth-limited and powerlimited scenarios, as well as reduction in earth station BUC/amplifier power requirements.
