and FEC code rate to give highest possible throughput. ACM maximizes throughput regardless of
link conditions (noise or other impairments, clear sky, rain fade, etc).
Outbound ACM operation is available in the CDM-800 Gateway Router, and ACM operation is
available in the CDM-840 / ODM/R-840 Remote Routers and CDD-880 Multi Receiver Routers.

A.3
Bridge Point-to-Multipoint (BPM) Operation
The Advanced VSAT BPM feature functions as a Learning Ethernet Switch when the “Working
Mode” is set to BPM. This makes the Advanced VSAT equipment appear as a “Sky Ethernet
Switch” and allows for a greatly simplified network deployment.
In BPM Mode, all L2/L3/L4 protocols such as VLAN, MPLS, IPv6, OSPF, and BGP will flow through
the network as they would through an off-the-shelf Ethernet Switch.
The Advanced VSAT System, running in BPM Mode, supports Flat Networks, Flat Networks with
Routers, and VLAN Trunking network topologies.
