Comtech Telecommunications’ (News - Alert) Tempe, Arizona-based subsidiary, Comtech EF Data Corp., is supporting a customer's network expansion in Asia.

Comtech EF Data Corp., which manufactures a broad spectrum of satellite earth station communications products, has received a $1.3 million order for satellite communications equipment to this end.

As per the agreement, the company will deliver several models of Comtech EF Data's satellite modems including the CDM-625, the CDM-700 and the DMD20 models.

The customer has also ordered Comtech EF Data's Radyne (News - Alert)-branded C-Band and Ku-Band synthesized frequency down converters. These converters, says the company, have been especially created to provide performance that meets or exceeds industry standards.

Also, these converters can easily be integrated and operated in any size earth station.

"This order is a testament to our market leadership position and our one-stop-shop approach. The satellite earth station products ordered will enable our customer to realize significant efficiencies and facilitate a cost-effective network expansion," said Fred Kornberg (News - Alert), president and chief executive officer of Comtech Telecommunications.

The CDM-625 allows for maximum savings under all conditions thanks to a combination of advanced forward error correction, such as VersaFEC and Low Density Parity Check codes, and the revolutionary DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier bandwidth compression.

Boasting exceptional power and bandwidth efficiency, the CDM-700 High-Speed Satellite Modem operates in broadcast, circuit restoration, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint applications.

The DMD20 satellite modem from Comtech has the ability to support multiple standards and can enable switching between spur-free 70/140 MHz operation and L-Band.

The switching is made possible without any configuration changes.
