Functional Description
Figure 1-2 illustrates the CDM-740 Advanced Satellite Modem as deployed in a typical satellite-
based communications network.
The CDM-740 utilizes a high performance processor and a real-time operating system (RTOS)
combined with multiple Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) for optimal performance. All
non-volatile memory is provided by both onboard and Compact Flash devices. Field upgrades are
easily loaded via the Ethernet port; software-based options are added to the unit via FAST (Fully
Accessible System Topology) upgrade.
The CDM-740 runs on an embedded operating system and does not have moving parts for media
storage. This design provides carrier class reliability and high speed, purpose-driven processing.
The unit can be managed through multiple interfaces providing options for both in-band and out-
of-band monitor and control:
•
SNMP MIB II and Private MIB, HTTP Web-based Management
•
Telnet (CLI), Terminal Port (CLI)
•
Serial 232/485 and Front Panel control
