NovelSat NS330 Open/Mec Satellite Modem
The NovelSat NS330 Open/Mec Satellite Modem is a professional satellite modem designed for high-performance transmission and reception over satellite networks. It combines advanced DVB-S2/DVB-S2X modulation and coding with flexible RF interfaces for broadcast, telecom, and satellite communication applications.
The modem supports QPSK, 8PSK, 16APSK, 32APSK, 64APSK, 128APSK, and 256APSK modulation options across its supported DVB-S2X and DVB-S2 modes. LDPC inner coding and BCH outer coding provide flexible forward error correction for different satellite link requirements.
The NS330 supports adaptive coding and modulation (ACM), automatic uplink power control (AUPC), AES-256 link encryption, carrier identification, and NOVELSAT DUET and Carrier Echo Cancellation technology. These features help support efficient and reliable satellite transmission in demanding network environments.
For data connectivity, the modem provides four 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet ports and a dedicated 10/100/1000 GbE management port. It supports Layer 2 transparent bridge and Layer 3 router modes, IP encapsulation, DiffServ, priority-based queuing, and jumbo frames up to 10,000 bytes.
With a 1RU rack-mount design, 950-2150 MHz L-Band transmit and receive interfaces, up to 60 Mbps aggregated data rate, and data/baud rates from 50 ksps to 36 Msps, the NovelSat NS330 is suitable for satellite backhaul, broadcast contribution, telecom networks, enterprise connectivity, and professional satellite infrastructure.
