18 WEDNESDAY @ConnecTechAsia2018 27 June 2018 www.apb-news.com Newtec boosts satellite performance for broadband and broadcast As the satellite industry continues to be marked by uncertainty, Newtec is showcasing its satellite solutions to help broadcasters and service providers enhance efficiency and performance, thus maximising the potential of their businesses. O n e of t h e s o l u t i o n s t h a t Newtec is demonstrating is the new Satellite Network Calculator. Designed to give users the power to analyse performance and eval- uate potential gains made by their satellite network in new markets, the Satellite Network Calculator provides insights from the planning stage of a new network, all the way up to optimising and implementing an established network. This, in turn, maximises the operator’s business potential by displaying how different elements of the network would affect band- width consumption and, therefore, cost and capacity, says Newtec. Optimum efficiency and per- formance are also top of Newtec’s agenda, as it offers the Newtec Designed as an HTS modem, the Newtec MDM2510 IP satellite modem supports a wide range of services including Internet/Intranet access, VoIP, back- hauling, mobility, contribution and multicasting. live pic to come? Used for distribution and contribution broadcast applications, the MCX7000 multi-car- rier satellite gateway platform is able to function as a quadruple modulator or modem with dual demodulator. Dialog Mobility Manager. With the Mobility Manager, Newtec is taking a new approach by centralising the process at the network operations centre (NOC), giving operators control over all terminals and beams on the network. The behaviour of the Mobility Manager is config- ured through a rules-based engine, allowing network operators to customise the logic to match their business needs and priorities. The Newtec Dialog Mobility Manager includes the ability to switch between different satellite beams. Incorporating a set of application programming inter- faces (APIs) to provide control over beam-switching logic, facilitate network load balance, routing and regulatory compliance, the Mobility Manager overcomes the limitations of previous systems and brings further gains through capacity shar- ing, which is enabled by Newtec’s Mx-DMA technology. To further enhance efficiency, Newtec is demonstrating its DVB- S2X modem portfolio, which ena- bles satellite operators to optimally address any market or application from a single network. Offered under this portfolio is the Newtec MDM2510 IP satellite modem, a high-throughput satellite (HTS) modem that supports a wide range of ser vices including Internet/ Intranet acce
