Today the iQ 800 is being integrated rapidly to meet future aero requirements. It supports high-speed aeronautical comms-on-the-move with multiple receivers and an ATDMA transmitter featuring a powerful architecture for maximum flexibility and expansion.
The iQ 800 modem board offers full feature parity with its predecessor, the CX780, as well as immediate benefits and long-term features. The iQ 800 supports up to three times the performance and up to 50% shorter beam switch times immediately.
Ultimately, the iQ 800 becomes a multi-personality aero modem with continuous support on Velocity and new support for the iDirect next-generation VSAT platform. The result is long-term options for network operators and service providers navigating the future needs of their customers.
On our next-gen platform, the iQ 800 will offer a 475Msps DVB-S2X forward and iDirect’s award-winning Mx-DMA MRC return to the aero market. iQ 800 integrators will convey these continual enhancements to their own customers through proactive testing and certification now.
