Chapter 1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
throughout this manual as “the modem”. When equipped with the optional HighPerformance Packet Processor, the modem may also be referred to as the
CDM-570A-IP
, CDM-570AL-IP, CDMR-570AL-IP, or simply the CDM-IP.
Figure 1-1. CDM-570A and CDM-570AL Satellite Modems
Comtech EF Data’s CDM-570AL and CDMR-570AL Satellite Modems are intended for L-Band
closed network applications. The CDM-570A Satellite Modem is the 70/140 MHz version of the
same modem. Either frequency version serves as a drop-in replacement for the CDM570L/CDMR-570L (L-Band) or CDM-570 (70/140 MHz) Satellite Modems. Apart from the IF frequency band, the modems are essentially identical. The modem is 100% backwards
compatible with its predecessors, but incorporates ne w f eatures and expansion capabilities.
1.1.1 Modem Features Overview
• The CDM-570AL provides an L-Band IF frequency range from 950 to 2250 MHz.
• The CDM-570A provides a 70/140 MHz IF f requency range from 50 to 90 MHz and 100
to 180 MHz.
•The CDM-570AL consumes only 29 Watts (typical, without any option cards).
Introduction 1–1 MN-CDM570A
CDM-570A/570AL Satellite Modem with Optional Packet Processor
Revision 5
•The CDM-570A/570AL may be equipped with the optional High-Performance Packet
Processor
card for 10/100 BaseT Ethernet operation that, in addition to providing Layers
3-5 functionality, incorporates a number of key f eatures for Wide Area Network (WAN)
bandwidth optimization: very low overhead High-level Data Link Control (HDLC); Header
and Payload Compression; Advanced Quality of Service (QoS); and Triple DES (3XDES)
Encryption.
•The CDM-570A/570AL offers variable data rates from 2.4 kbps to 10.239 Mbp s , in
BPSK, QPSK, Offset QPSK, 8-PSK, 8-QAM, 16-QAM modes.
•The CDM-570A/570AL supports an enti rely new family of waveforms - VersaFEC-2
®.
(both short and long block Low-density Parity Che ck Coding (LDPC)) with variable data
rates in BPSK, QPSK, 8-ARY, 16-ARY, and 32-ARY modes.
•The CDM-570A/570AL provides a full r ange of built-in interface types, including G.703
T1 and E1 and, when the modem is equipped with the optional Packet Processor,
Ethernet.
•The CDM-570A/570AL is compact – it is 1RU high, with a depth of 16 inches for the
CDM-570AL, 11 inches for the CDMR-570AL Reduced Chassis Depth unit, and 13.13
inches for the CDM-570A.
•The CDM-570A/570AL features a front panel Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD), and
six-button keypad for local Monitor and Control (M&C).
•The CDM-570A/570AL features an integrated 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface for
network-based remote product M&C – including SNMP, HTTP (non-secure Web server),
and Telnet.
•The CDM-570AL supports external Block Up Converters (BUCs) and Low-noise Block
Down Converters (LNBs). An optional BUC power s upply, either 90 Watts or 150 Watts
@ 50°C, may be installed internally. 10 MHz reference signals are available to drive both
BUC and LNB. LNB power and Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) for ‘smart’ BUCs is
standard.
1.1.2 Functional Description
The modem has two fundamentally different types of interface – IF and data:
•The IF interface provides a bidirectional link with the satellite via the uplink and downlink
equipment.
•The data interface is a bidirectional path that connects the modem (assumed to be t he
Data Circuit-terminating Equipment (DCE)) to the custome r’s equipment (assumed to be
the Data Terminal Equipment (DTE)).
Transmit data is received by the terrestrial interface where line receivers convert the clock and
data signals to CMOS levels for further processi ng. A small First In First Out (FIFO) follows the
terrestrial interface to facilitate the various clocking and framing options. If framing is enabled, the
transmit clock and data output from the FIFO pass through t he f ramer, where the Embedded
Distant-end Monitor and Control (EDMAC) overhead data is added to the main data; otherwis e,
the clock and data are passed directly to the FEC encoder.
Introduction 1–2 MN-CDM570A
CDM-570A/570AL Satellite Modem with Optional Packet Processor
Revision 5
In the FEC encoder, the data is differentially encoded, scrambled, and then convolutionally
encoded. Following the encoder, the data is fed to t he t ransmit digital filters, which perform
spectral shaping on the data signals. The resultant I and Q signals are then fed to the BPSK,
QPSK/OQPSK, 8-PSK, or 16-QAM modulator. The carrier is generated by a frequency
synthesizer, and the I and Q signals directly modulate this carrier to produce an IF output signal.
In both L-Band and 70/140 MHz operation, receive sig nal s are first converted to a Ultra High
Frequency (UHF) for Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filtering, and are then down convert ed to a
lower IF frequency for direct sampling in a high spee d A /D converter. An Automatic Gain Control
(AGC) circuit controls the signal level presented to the A /D converter. Digital signal processing
performs the final quadrature conversion to baseband followed by Nyquist filtering, carrier
recovery, and symbol timing recovery. The resultant demodulated signal is fed, in soft decision
form, to the selected FEC decoder (which can be Viterbi, TCM, Reed-Solomon, Turbo,
VersaFEC, or VersaFEC-2, if installed).
After decoding, the recovered clock and data pass to t he de-framer (if EDMAC framing is
enabled) where the overhead information is removed. Following this, the data either passes or
bypasses the Plesiochronous/Doppler buffer, which has a programmable size. From here, the
receive clock and data signals are routed to the terrestrial interface, and are passed to the
externally connected DTE equipment.
The modem signal processing functions are perf ormed in a single, large Field-Programmable
Gate Array (FPGA), which permits rapid implementation of changes, additions and
enhancements in the field. These signal processi ng f unctions are controlled and monitored by a
32-bit Reduced Instruction Set Computing (RISC) microprocessor, which als o controls all front
panel, serial and Ethernet interfaces.

1.2.6 AUPC
APPENDIX E. AUPC (AUTOMATIC UPLINK POWER CONTROL)
AUPC (Automatic Uplink Power Control) is an important feature that enables the modem to
automatically adjust its output power to maintain a s c onst ant the E
of the remote end of the
b/N0
satellite link. This provides protection against rain fading, a particularly severe problem with KuBand links.
Note that you can simultaneously use both EDMAC and AUPC. A benefit of AUPC is that,
whenever you select EDMAC/AUPC operation, you can view the remote demodulator’s E
b/N0
from the front panel display of the local modem.
To accomplish AUPC, you must use the framed EDMAC mode of operation. The dist ant end
modem constantly sends back information about the demodulator E
the overhead structure. The local modem uses the E
to adjust its output power and create a
b/N0
using reserved bytes in
b/N0
closed-loop feedback system over the sat el li te link.
1.2.7 EDMAC
Appendix J. EDMAC CHANNEL
EDMAC facilitates network management for small networks. In this mode, an additional 5%
overhead is combined with the traffic data, (1.6% in Turbo BPSK modes, Turbo Rate 21/44
QPSK/OQPSK, and all data rates greater than 2 Mbps). M &C information is added transparently,
allowing access to the distant-end modem.
Additionally, EDMAC-2 uses 1.6% overhead in all modes for those application s where the 5%
overhead is excessive. The EDMAC and EDMAC-2 modes do not require any additional cabling
at either the local or the distant-end modems.
The standard M&C control port provides acce ss to EDMAC. Full monitor and control is possible,
and you may control the on/off status at the dista nt-end carrier.
1.2.8 Updating Modem Firmware
Chapter 4. UPDATING FIRMWARE
The modem uses ‘flash memory’ technology internally. This simplifies firmware updating.
You may perform the firmware update, without opening the modem, remotely over satellite (when
the modem is equipped with the optional Packet P rocessor), or by directly connecting a usersupplied Microsoft Windows-based PC to the modem ‘Ethernet 10/100 | M&C 100’ port (for
modems without the optional Packet Proce ss or) or the ‘Ethernet 10/100 | Traffic 100’ port (for
modems equipped with the optional Packet Pro cessor).

3.2.3.5 Ext Ref In/Out Connector, BNC
The Ext Ref In/Out connector is a BNC female connector. The signal here is usersupplied for phase-locking the internal 10MHz refe rence oscillator, and can be 1, 2,
5, 10 or 20 MHz. The impedance is matched for 50/75Ω, and requires a level in the
range -6 to +10 dBm.
This asynchronous/serial 6-pin RJ-11 modular port is an EIA-232 DCE interface. You
must use an adapter cable (e.g., CEFD P/N PL/9396-1, available for purchase from
Comtech EF Data Product Support) to connect the User PC to this port, for operation
of the Packet Processor Serial CLI (Command Line Interface).
The CLI provides M&C of modem and Packet Processor functions via a userprovided terminal emulator (e.g., TeraTerm, PuTTY, or HyperTerminal). See

You may perform the firmware update, without opening the CDM-570A/570AL, remotely over
satellite (when the unit is equipped with the optional High Pe rf ormance Packet Processor), or by
directly connecting a user-supplied Microsoft Win dows-based PC to the CDM-570A/570AL
‘Ethernet 10/100 | M&C 100’ port (for units without the optional Packet Processor) or the ‘Ethernet
10/100 | Traffic 100’ port (for units equipped with the optional Packet Processor).
In this order:
•Download the firmware update arc hive file via the Internet, or acquire the file from
Comtech EF Data Product Support, and transfer t he files to the User PC.
•Use Windows Command-line to transfer, via File Transfer Protocol (FTP), the extracted
firmware files from the User PC to the CDM-570A/570AL standby firmware image.
•Use the CDM-570A/570AL front panel or t he CDM-570A HTTP Interface to configure the
modem to operate using the updated firmware image .
