Revolutionizes end user satellite quality of experience while
providing unmatched efficiency
TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
March 6, 2017-- Comtech Telecommunications Corp.'s Tempe, AZ subsidiary,
Comtech EF Data Corp., announced today the revolutionary Heights™
Dynamic Network Access (H-DNA) technology at the SATELLITE
2017 exhibition in Washington, D.C. With H-DNA, the Heights platform
offers an uncompromised step change in performance and a vehicle to
provide an exceptional end user Quality of Experience, clearly
differentiating the networking solution from all others.
The Heights
Networking Platform is engineered to elevate service levels, via
unparalleled horsepower, efficiency, application optimization and
intelligence, addressing the needs of satellite operators and service
providers of all scales. Heights meets the demands of traditional Fixed
Satellite Services (FSS) wide beam operation while providing distinct
advantages for those using or considering migrating to High Throughput
Satellite designs.
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 can provide sub-second
reaction time to changing user demand and link conditions without
introducing the excessive jitter and latency normally associated with
any comparable technology. 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.
"Our H-DNA technology is another example of our continuance of
best-in-class capabilities," commented Louis Dubin, Senior Vice
President, Engineering, Marketing and Product Management for Comtech EF
Data. "By leveraging this uncompromised technology, by tightly tracking
the traffic payload, and by achieving best in class IP bits per Hertz,
our clients can differentiate their offerings by improving service
flexibility and delivering superior QoE while also improving
profitability."
Comtech EF Data is offering 30-minute H-DNA Technology Briefings at
SATELLITE in Washington, D.C. on March 7-9, 2017. Visit Comtech's booth
#1401 for more information.
