MDM5010 High Throughput Satellite Modem
The Newtec MDM5010 Satellite modem is a super high throughput modem capable of handling more than 500 Mbps of traffic. With a symbol rate ranging from 1 up to 500 Mbaud and coding from QPSK to 256APSK in the forward channel, it enables network operators to set-up almost any type and size of network on any available type of satellite – for example, traditional FSS, next generation High Performance Satellites, HTS.
The MDM5010 series supports a wide range of IP Services including internet/intranet access, Voice over IP (VoIP), backbones for mobile backhauling and trunking, fibre restoral/ backup services, contribution and multicasting services. The high spectral efficiency, high packet and bit rate capability makes the 5010 a perfect fit for very bandwidth-intensive services in the enterprise, backhauling, offshore and maritime markets.

Return Link Technology
The modem supports S2 Extensions SCPC in the return, which allows for highly efficient, medium to high rate dedicated return bandwidth, ranging from 1 to 133 Mbaud for applications such as high speed IP backbones, cellular backhauling, trunking, maritime, mobility and file/video contribution. MF-TDMA mode enables low rate overbooked and bursty traffic profiles for inactive sites in business continuity networks, small cell backhaul networks or for always-on connectivity in occasional use networks. The third mode, Mx-DMA, combines the best of both worlds and fills in the gap between MFTDMA and SCPC.

Quality of Service
For a true broadband experience at minimal bandwidth consumption, the 5010 modem incorporates IP traffic enhancement software for TCP acceleration, GTP optimization/ acceleration, compression, packet aggregation and encryption. Traffic can be classified in seven different QoS classes based on IP traffic characteristics. This allows the network operator to provide a flexible hierarchical QoS model depending on any application’s SLA.
