(TPC)
The optional Turbo Product Coding (TPC) is a recent development in FEC techniques
that delivers significant performance improvements when compared to Viterbi with
concatenated Reed-Solomon. TPC simultaneously offers increased coding gain,
markedly lower decoding delay (leading to improved TCP/IP performance), and
bandwidth savings of up to 40%. The TPC option includes two modes (BPSK 22/44 and
BPSK 5/16) that permit operation from exceptionally small antennas, where flux density
issues are of concern.

1.4.2 TCP A
CCELERATION
To compensate for the TCP performance degradation in a high delay and high BER (Bit
Error Rate) environment, the CiM-550 incorporates an optional proprietary transparent
TCP acceleration mechanism that will allow a TCP session to optimally use the available
link capacity, while preserving end-to-end transport reliability. TCP acceleration will be
subject to user configured Quality of Service (QoS) restrictions for the route.

The CiM-550 optionally supports DES-56 encryption and decryption. Each unit supports
2 encryption keys and 2 decryption keys. The keys are user configurable. Each route can
be assigned to be encrypted by key 1 or key 2 or transmitted in clear.
