The HX50 remote terminal, shown in Figure 1, is a very small
aperture terminal (VSAT) that provides satellite connectivity
between a remote IP device such as a computer, POS device, or
small LAN, and the HX system gateway (GTWY). The HX50 is
designed for desktop use, either resting horizontally or mounted
vertically using a provided pedestal base. Like the HX100, the
HX50 is equipped with a serial port, two Ethernet ports, a
telephone line port, and an internal modem, as shown in Figure 2.
