400 Series is Faster, Smaller, and Lighter with more powerful FPGAs
State College, PA - May 3, 2019 - Teledyne Paradise Datacom (Paradise), part of
the Teledyne Defense Electronics Group, announced today that it
has begun shipping the latest version of its innovative line of Q-Flex modems, the
400 Series.
The flagship 400 Series features faster data
rate speeds, providing up to 345 Mbps, while also being both smaller and lighter
in weight. Expanding on the groundbreaking flexibility the Q-Flex has long been
known for, the 400 Series offers more powerful FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays)
that will accommodate further firmware upgrades and features in the future.
"We are also pleased to announce that the new QMultiflex-400 delivers DVB-S2X
on outbound and return carriers as well, in line with the rest of the Q-Flex range.
With this upgrade, customers can rest easy knowing their
Q-Flex platform supports the most powerful bandwidth saving
technology available today," said Mike Towner, Senior Director of Business Development
for Paradise Datacom.
"The new Q-Flex 400 Series operates seamlessly with the current Q-Flex platform,
so customers can continue to optimize operations by simply adding 400s to their
existing network infrastructure," Towner added.
The 400 Series features Paired Carrier+™, the enhanced carrier overlap technology
pioneered by Paradise which enables transmit and receive carriers to share the same
space segment. The 400s also utilize XStream IP™, more bandwidth-saving Paradise
technology including adaptive coding and modulation (ACM), acceleration, and header
and payload compression.
The Q-Flex 400 platform is currently moving through the process of WGS (Wideband
Global SATCOM) certification.
Current Q-Flex modems are factory upgradeable to the Q-MultiFlex platform by
simply adding accessory demodulator cards which enables a single earth station modem
to establish two-way communications with up to 16 remote sites. The point to multi-point
functionality is retained in the 400 Series with remote sites utilizing a preconfigured
version of the QFlex-400, the QFlex-400 P2MP.
The complete 400 Series is now shipping to customers and includes the following
models: the
Q-Flex 400, the
Q-Multi-Flex 400, and the
Q-Flex 400 P2MP. The platform will be featured
at the Teledyne Defense Electronics Booth 1501 May 6-9 in Washington,
DC.
