Comtech EF Data DST-C C-Band Single Channel Per Carrier VSAT System
Complete C-Band SCPC VSAT terminal
C-Band Digital Satellite VSAT Terminal System
This product has been designated end of life by the manufacturer. Please contact us for info on a suitable replacement.
Comtech EF Data DST-C is a fully integrated single thread Single Channel Per Carrier (SCPC) Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) system that's specifically designed to provide communications via satellite between single and/or multi site locations.
The DST-C system is comprised of three major components:
Block Up Converter (BUC) is a weatherproof unit including an integral L-Band up converter and amplifier.
Low Noise Block Converter (LNB) is a low noise receive element with an L-Band interface.
The Indoor Unit (IDU) is a complete, variable data rate modem with a high stability reference. It includes Outdoor Unit (ODU) power supplies for the BUC and LNB in an integrated 1RU package. The TX and RX IF are L-Band.
