DMD15/DMD15L IBS/IDR Satellite Modem

Installation

 

 

Section 2 – Installation

2.0 Installation Requirements

The DMD15/DMD15L Modem is designed to be installed within any standard 19-inch wide equipment cabinet or rack, and requires one rack unit (RU) of mounting space (1.75 inches) vertically and 21 inches of depth. Including cabling, a minimum of 23 inches of rack depth is required. The rear panel of the DMD15/DMD15L is designed to have power enter from the right and IF Cabling enter from the left when viewed from the rear of the modem. Data and control cabling can enter from either side although they are closer to the right. The unit can be placed on a table or suitable surface if required.

There are no user-serviceable parts or configuration settings located inside the DMD15/DMD15L Chassis. There is a potential shock hazard internally at the power supply module. DO NOT open the DMD15/DMD15L Chassis under any circumstances.

Before initially applying power to the unit, it is a good idea to disconnect the transmit output from the operating ground station equipment. This is especially true if the current DMD15/DMD15L configuration settings are unknown, where incorrect settings could disrupt existing communications traffic.

2.1 Unpacking

The DMD15/DMD15L Modem was carefully packaged to avoid damage and should arrive complete with the following items for proper installation:

1.DMD15/DMD15L Modem Unit.

2.Power Cord, 6-foot with applicable AC Connector.

3.Installation and Operation Manual.

2.2Removal and Assembly

Carefully unpack the unit and ensure that all of the above items are in the carton. If the Prime AC power available at the installation site requires a different Power Cord/AC Connector, then arrangements to receive the proper device will be necessary before proceeding with the installation.

The DMD15/DMD15L Modem Unit is shipped fully assembled and does not require removal of the covers for any purpose in installation. The only replaceable assembly in the unit is the Universal Interface Module (UIM).

DMD15, DMD15L specifications

The Paradyne DMD15L and DMD15 are advanced digital modems designed to enhance communication in a variety of networking environments. As part of Paradyne's robust portfolio of networking solutions, these devices are engineered to deliver reliable and efficient data transmission over both copper and fiber optic connections.

One of the main features of the DMD15L and DMD15 is their capability to support Multiple Protocol Data Units (MPDUs), which enables them to handle a diverse range of network protocols seamlessly. This flexibility makes them suitable for different applications, from industrial automation to telecommunications.

These modems utilize advanced modulation techniques, such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM), to maximize data throughput while maintaining signal integrity. This ensures that users benefit from high-speed connections, even in challenging signal environments. Furthermore, the DMD15 series incorporates Error Correction Codes (ECC) that enhance data reliability, effectively reducing packet loss and ensuring data coherence during transmission.

The DMD15L is particularly notable for its long-range capabilities, making it a go-to solution for users requiring extended distances without compromising data quality. It features built-in Adaptive Equalization, which automatically adjusts signal levels to optimize performance over varying transmission distances. This technology is crucial in maintaining consistent high-speed connectivity, especially in environments with variable conditions.

Both models are equipped with user-friendly interfaces that facilitate configuration and management. They support SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for real-time network monitoring, allowing administrators to track performance metrics and identify potential issues before they impact users. The devices also include LED indicators for quick status checks, ensuring that users have immediate visibility of operational conditions.

In terms of physical characteristics, the DMD15 and DMD15L are designed for durability and ease of installation. They come in a compact form factor, making them suitable for deployment in constrained spaces. Additionally, their robust casing is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.

Overall, the Paradyne DMD15L and DMD15 are high-performance modems that combine versatile technologies, reliability, and user-friendly features. They are excellent choices for organizations looking to enhance their communication capabilities and ensure robust data transmission across diverse networks. With their advanced functionalities and adaptability, these modems stand out as key components in modern network infrastructure.
