The modem is compliant with the provisions of MIL-STD-188-165A, DoD Standard,
Interoperability of SHF Satellite Communications PSK Modems (Frequency Division Multiple
Access (FDMA) Operation).
The modem is fully interoperable with legacy OM-73 modems and other Government owned
Commercial off-the-Shelf (COTS) and International Telecommunications Satellite Organization
(INTELSAT) compatible PSK modems.
The modem can be controlled and monitored from a variety of platforms, including its own front
panel controls and indicators, a co-located Personal Computer (PC) and remote control systems
such as the Comtech Monitor and Control System (CMCS) and the Vipersat Network
Management System (VNMS).
