CDM-600 Satellite Modem 
Revision 7 
Introduction

1.1 Standard 
Features 
The CDM-600 provides a wealth of standard features which go far beyond the basic 
requirements of the Intelsat specifications.  
 
•  Low rate variable data rates – 2.4 kbps to 5.0 Mbps 
•  Mid-rate variable data rates – 2.4 kbps to 10.0 Mbps 
•  High-rate variable data rates – 2.4 kbps to 20.0 Mbps 
•  Embedded Distant-end Monitor and Control (EDMAC) (see Note) 
•  Selectable 50Ω / 75Ω IF port impedance 
•  Asymmetric Loop Timing 
•  Automatic Uplink Power Control (AUPC) 
•  Software – Flash Upgrading 
•  Modulation Types –BPSK, QPSK, and OQPSK 
•  1:1 and 1:10 redundancy switches  
 
Note: In this mode, an additional 5% overhead is combined with the traffic data,  
(1.5% in Turbo BPSK modes, Turbo Rate 1/2 QPSK/OQPSK, and all data rates greater 
than 2 Mbps) which permits Monitor & Control (M&C) information to be added 
(transparently to the user), allowing access to the distant-end modem. This mode does not 
require any additional cabling at either the local or distant-end Modems - access to 
EDMAC is via the standard M&C control port. Full M&C is possible, and importantly, 
the on/off status of the carrier at the distant-end carrier can be controlled. In addition, for 
firmware version 1.5.0 and higher, the proprietary D&I++ framing mode is available. 
This combines Drop & Insert (D&I) operation with a similar EDMAC link and a 2.2% 
overhead. 
1.1.1 AUPC 
An important innovation in the CDM-600 is the addition of Automatic Uplink Power 
Control (AUPC). This feature enables the modem to automatically adjust its output 
power to maintain the Eb/No of the remote end of the satellite link constant. This 
provides protection against rain fading, a particularly severe problem with Ku-band links.  
 
To accomplish this, either the EDMAC or D&I++ framing types may be used, and the 
distant end modem constantly sends back information about the demodulator Eb/No 
using reserved bytes in the overhead structure. Using the Eb/No, the local modem then 
adjusts its output power, and hence, a closed-loop feedback system is created over the 
satellite link.  
 
A benefit of this feature is that whenever EDMAC or D&I++ with AUPC operation is 
selected, the remote demodulator’s Eb/No can be viewed from the front panel display of 
the local modem. Note that EDMAC and D&I++ can be used in conjunction with either 
framing type.
