As the CT-2A uses geo-synchronous L-band satellites, the service has a very short latency period
operating in virtually real time. Due to sophisticated network design features, the transceiver makes very
efficient use of available bandwidth providing extremely cost effective data transmission and producing a
network with long term scaleability.
The transceiver unit can be adapted to transmit a wide variety of information using its own internal
sensors, information provided by the GPS satellite system and EZ-LAN sensors. The table below
indicates the type of information that the transceiver can transmit in the TAMS service.
