The Discovery Hub is the perfect starter system offering better value for your dollar than any other manufacturer. You get a fully functional hub, with 4 inbound carriers, scalable as your needs grow via software license, all for $50,000. This means no downtime for throughput upgrades.
We have removed all barriers to entry. Advantech Wireless has configured many systems for quick turnaround. For example: If you are looking for a turnkey package, a complete fully functional Hub along with 50 Remote Terminals (our S4120), you can be operational for less than $100,000.
Advantech Wireless, a world leader in satellite communications, offers the world’s leading, two-way, open standard (DVB-RCS), broadband satellite access system. The Discovery Hub and in particular its Return Link Sub-System (RLSS), the RLS100, is at the heart of the broadband access system.
Hubs (including the RLS100, FLS100) are turn-key systems which can be installed in days to enable a wide range of public and/or private network topologies with satellite interactive terminals.
The RLS100 is a modular hub sub-system which can be integrated with new or installed IP/DVB broadcast platforms and IP switch/routing equipment to provide two-way satellite broadband access services. It is designed to receive inbound traffic, handle inbound and outbound signalling, schedule and control networks of satellite interactive terminals (available from multiple suppliers). A single scalable RLSS unit can support networks ranging from ten to 500 simultaneously logged-on terminals.
The FLS100 is the outbound equivalent of the RLS100. The FLS100 takes IP traffic and using Multi-Protocol Encapsulation (MPE) transforms the data into an MPEG2 format for transmission on the outbound using its embedded DVB-S/S2 modulator.
