SDM-2020 Satellite Demodulator Revision 4
Introduction MN/SDM2020D.IOM
1–3
The demodulator is designed to meet stringent safety and RF emissions standards,
including CE Mark certification.
The demodulator utilizes Fully Accessible System Topology (FAST), Comtech EF
Data’s feature for immediate implementation of different options through the user
interface keypad, enabling on-location upgrade of the operating feature set—in the
rack—without removing a unit from the setup. This feature employs a unique access code
to enable configuration of the available hardware. The access code can be purchased at
any time from Comtech EF Data Customer Support. Once obtained, the access code is
entered into the unit through the front panel keypad or the rear remote port. When service
requirements change, the demodulator can be upgraded to meet the new requirements
within minutes after confirmation by Comtech EF Data Customer Support.
Note: There are specific data rate ranges for the various interfaces.
