SIP
Session Initiation Protocol. Protocol for routing VoIP calls.
Skew
Adjustment angle to orient an LNB with a linearly polarized satellite
signal.
Spread Spectrum
A type of communication method by which the information signal
energy is spread over a frequency band much wider than the
minimum bandwidth required for transmitting the information. The
resulting low power level across the full bandwidth does not interfere
with neighboring satellites, so the width of the transmitted beam is not
as critical as it is with traditional VSAT antennas.
SSID
Service Set Identifier. Unique identifier shared by all computers and
devices on a single wireless network.
SSPA
Solid State Power Amplifier. Antenna component that amplifies
signals from the modem for C-band transmission (max RF power =
22 W).
Straight-through Cable
Cable in which the pins at one end match the pins at the other end.
Subnet
Subdivision of a network based on IP address. For example, with a
subnet mask of "255.255.255.0," all computers and devices assigned an
IP address starting with "195.172.8" belong to one subnet (there are
255 possible). An IP address starting with "195.172.9" designates a
different subnet.
