FEC (FORWARD ERROR CORRECTION) OPTIONS
The method of FEC used among Comtech EF Data’s Advanced VSAT series of products differs
according to Advanced VSAT Series product.
For the CDM-800 Gateway Router: The FEC method used by the hub site CDM-800 is based
upon the DVB-S2 standard for QPSK, 8PSK, 16APSK and 32APSK with concatenated Low Density
Parity Code (LDPC) and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH).
Appendix B. FEC (FORWARD ERROR CORRECTION) OPTIONS in this manual.
For the CDD-880 Multi Receiver Router: The FEC method used by the hub site CDD-880 Multi
Receiver Router is a family of short-block Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes with very low
latency called VersaFEC®. It is a patent pending technology wholly owned and developed by
Comtech EF Data and CEFD sister division Comtech AHA Corp. (the VersaFEC name is a
trademark registered to Comtech AHA).

CDD-880 Multi Receiver Router Installation and Operation Manual (CEFD P/N
MN-CDD880).
For the CDM-840 and ODM/R-840 Remote Routers: The FEC method used by the remote site
CDM-840 Remote Router depends on the direction of signal processing in use:
• The receive (Rx) side of the CDM-840 operates with error correction based upon the
DVB-S2 standard for QPSK, 8PSK, 16APSK and 32APSK with concatenated Low Density
Parity Code (LDPC) and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH).
• The transmit (Tx) side of the CDM-840 uses the VersaFEC® family of short-block LDPC
codes.

Adaptive Coding and Modulation / Variable Coding and Modulation
(ACM/VCM)
The VersaFEC® Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM) feature is a patents-pending technology
owned and developed by Comtech EF Data and CEFD sister division Comtech AHA Corp. ACM
turns fade margin into increased link capacity by automatically adapting the modulation type
