Comtech Telecommunications Corp. Announces the General Availability of the Heights™ Dynamic Network Access Technology
TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
May 15, 2017 -- Comtech Telecommunications Corp.'s Tempe, Arizona-based
subsidiary, Comtech EF Data Corp., which is part of Comtech's Commercial
Solutions segment, announced today the general availability of the
Heights™ Dynamic Network Access (H-DNA) technology. With H-DNA, the Heights
Networking Platform revolutionizes end user satellite Quality of
Experience while providing unmatched efficiency.
Heights
Dynamic Network Access is a revolutionary, dynamic network access
technology designed for the Heights Networking Platform's return links.
It is fast, flexible and uncompromised, delivering unprecedented
benefits to users, service providers and satellite operators alike. The
culmination of new waveforms, enhanced bandwidth management algorithms
and robust multi-layer Quality of Service (QoS) make this return access
scheme highly dynamic and automatically able to react to real-time
traffic demand, providing best fit solutions based on customers' service
level agreements and network policies.
H-DNA rapidly adapts to changing environments and delivers superior
efficiency and Quality of Experience (QoE). It provides sub-second
reaction time to changing user demand and link conditions without
introducing the excessive jitter and latency normally associated with
other return access technologies. Additionally, as H-DNA leverages the
VersaFEC®-2 high-performance LDPC waveform, Adaptive Coding &
Modulation, Dynamic Power Control, IP optimization, low framing
overhead, multi-tier QoS and WAN optimization, it delivers the most user
IP bits per Hertz and most robust reliability compared to any other
solution in its class.
H-DNA instantly assigns capacity based on network-wide demand and
intelligently utilizes total network bandwidth at all times. It ensures
that bandwidth is instantly made available to users and sites across the
network as demand changes. It also allocates all available bandwidth per
user demand and configured service level agreements ensuring that all
capacity is used at all times, providing both maximum performance and
the best possible monetization opportunities.
"We are pleased to announce the general availability of H-DNA for
Heights to all of our customers and believe it is a game-changing
technology," commented Louis Dubin, Senior Vice President, Engineering,
Marketing and Product Management for Comtech EF Data. "H-DNA will
deliver true benefits to our customers, including service
differentiation, superior QoE and increased profitability."
