SDM-300L3 Satellite Modem
Asynchronous Interface/AUPC
Notes:
1. Comtech EF Data does not recommend increasing the power to the satellite
2. Be careful not to set carrier output too high when there is a loss of carrier due to
3. Do not use the distant end RX signal to compensate for local rain fade unless

ASYNC
The modem supports terrestrial data interfaces and the ASYNC Overhead interfaces.
11.3.1

Terrestrial Data Interfaces

Two I/O interfaces are provided for the terrestrial data source: EIA-422 and V.35. The
operator must select the terrestrial interface type from the front panel under the Utility
Interface menu. Once selected, I/O data is routed to and from the appropriate drivers and
receivers.
11.3.2

ASYNC Data Interfaces

The EIA-485 and EIA-232 I/O interfaces are provided for the ASYNC data source. The
operator must select the ASYNC data interface type from the front panel under the Utility
Interface menu. Once selected, the I/O data is routed to and from the appropriate drivers
and receivers.
EIA-485 (2-wire) requires connecting the TX + and RX + as one wire and tying TX and
RX for the second wire at the Data I/O/ This connection is not facilitated inside the
modem with relays.
Example:
