1.1 Overview
The CDM-570L and CDMR-570L Satellite Modems (Figure 1-1) are int L-band applications. The CDM-570 Satellite Modem is the 70/140 MHz IF version of the same modem. Apart from the IF frequency band, the three modems (referred to collectively as the CDM-570/570L) are essentially identical.
Note the following:
• The CDM-570/570L offers variable data rates from 2.4 kbps to 9.98 Mbps, in BPSK,
QPSK, Offset QPSK, 8-PSK, 8-QAM, and 16-QAM modes.
Chapter 1. INTRODUCTION

(CDM-570L shown)
ended for closed network
• The CDM-570/570L provides, as Forward Error Correction (FEC) options, Viterbi,
concatenated Reed-Solomon (R-S), Trellis Coded Modulation (TCM), and Turbo Product Coding (TPC, IESS-315 compliant).
• The CDM-570/570L provides a full range of built-in interface types, including G.703 T1
and E1 (note that G.703 operation is optional after 10/2009).
• The CDM-570 IF frequency range covers 50 to 90 and 100 to 180 MHz.
• The CDM-570L IF frequency range covers 950 to 2000 MHz. and supports external
Block Upconverters (BUCs) and Low-Noise Block Downconverters (LNBs). An optional BUC power supply, up to 150 Watts @ 50°C and 180 Watts @ 30°C, may be installed internally. 10 MHz reference signals are available to drive both BUC and LNB. LNB power and FSK for ‘smart’ BUCs is standard.

CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 12 Introduction MN/CDM570L.IOM
• The CDM-570L and CDMR-570L are compact – 1RU high and 16 inches deep or 1RU
high and 11 inches deep, respectively – and consume only 29 Watts (typical, not including BUC power supply or IP Module).
• The CDM-570 is 1RU high and 13 inches deep, and consumes 29 Watts (typical, not
including IP Module).
• The CDM-570/570L features a front panel VFD display and six-button keypad for local
configuration and control, although both modems can be fully remote-controlled.
• An optional integrated 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface offers a wide range of network-
based management options, such as SNMP, HTTP (non-secure web server), and Telnet.
1.2 Functional Description
The CDM-570/570L 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, which connects with the customer’s equipment
(assumed to be the DTE) and the modem (assumed to be the DCE).
Transmit data is received by the terrestrial interface where line receivers convert the clock and data signals to CMOS levels for further processing. A small 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 the framer, where the EDMAC overhead data is added to the main data; otherwise, the clock and data are passed directly to the Forward Error Correction encoder.
In the FEC encoder, the data is differentially encoded, scrambled, and then convolutionally encoded. Following the encoder, the data is fed to the transmit 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 the CDM-570L, the Rx IF signal in the range 950 to 2000 MHz is translated to an intermediate frequency at around 465 MHz, and from there further translated to baseband using the carrier recovery VCO.
In the CDM-570, the conversion of signals in the range 50 to 180 MHz is directly to baseband. This is a complex mix, resulting in the signal once more being split into an in-phase (I) and a quadrature (Q) component. An AGC circuit maintains the desired signal level constant over a broad range. Following this, the I and Q signals are sampled by high-speed (flash) A/D converters. All processing beyond this conversion is purely digital, performing the functions of 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, Reed­Solomon, or Turbo if installed).
After decoding, the recovered clock and data pass to the de-framer (if EDMAC framing is enabled) where the overhead information is removed. Following this, the data passes to the
1–2
CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 12 Introduction MN/CDM570L.IOM
Plesiochronous/Doppler buffer, which has a programmable size, or may be bypassed. From here, the receive clock and data signals are routed to the terrestrial interface, and are passed to the externally connected DTE equipment.
The CDM-570/570L signal processing functions are performed in a single, large Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), which permits rapid implementation of changes, additions and enhancements in the field. These signal processing functions are controlled and monitored by a 32-bit RISC microprocessor, which also controls all front panel, serial and Ethernet interfaces.
1.3 Features
1.3.1 Physical Description
The CDM-570/570L is constructed as a 1RU-high rack-mounting chassis, which can be free­standing if desired. Rack handles at the front facilitate removal from and placement into a rack. Physically, the modem is comprised of a single PCB assembly with two expansion slots for FEC codecs and other option cards.
1.3.2 Compatibility

1.3.6 Hardware Options
There are three hardware options available: Reed-Solomon Codec, Turbo Product Codec, and the IP Module Ethernet Interface. All three cards fit into expansion slots on the main circuit board.
1.3.7 Data Interfaces
The CDM-570/570L includes, as standard, a universal data interface that eliminates the need to exchange interface cards for different applications. The interfaces offered include:
• EIA-422 (EIA530) DCE (at rates up to 9.98 Mbps)
• X.21 DTE and DCE (at rates up to 9.98 Mbps)
• V.35 DCE (at rates up to 9.98 Mbps)
• Synchronous EIA-232 DCE (at rates up to 300 kbps)
• G.703 E1 (2048 kbps), balanced and unbalanced (optional for units after 10/2009)
• G.703 T1 (1544 kbps), balanced
• Optional – integrated 10/100 BaseT Ethernet Interface.
1.3.8 Verification
The CDM-570/570L includes many test modes and loopbacks for rapid verification of the correct function of the unit. The IF loopback, in particular, permits execution of a quick diagnostic test without disturbing external cabling. During the loopback, all the receive configuration parameters are temporarily changed to match the transmit side, and an internal RF switch connects the modulator output to the demodulator input. When normal operation is again selected, all of the previous values are restored.
1.3.9 AUPC
See Chapter 7. Automatic Uplink Power Control (AUPC) for detailed information about this feature.
Automatic Uplink Power Control (AUPC) is an important feature that enables the CDM-570/570L to automatically adjust its output power to maintain the E of the satellite link as constant. This provides protection against rain fading, a particularly severe problem with Ku-band links.
To accomplish AUPC, the framed EDMAC mode of operation must be used. The distant end modem constantly sends back information about the demodulator E the overhead structure. The local modem uses the E closed-loop feedback system over the satellite link.
A benefit of AUPC is that, whenever EDMAC/AUPC operation is selected, the remote demodulator’s E both EDMAC and AUPC can be used simultaneously.

1.3.10 EDMAC
See Chapter 9. EDMAC CHANNEL for detailed information about this feature.
The CDM-570/570L incorporates Embedded Distant-end Monitor And Control (EDMAC) to facilitate 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 applications where the 5% overhead is excessive. The EDMAC and EDMAC-2 modes do 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 monitor and control is possible, and the on/off status at the distant-end carrier can be controlled.
1.3.11 Updating Modem Firm ware
See Chapter 4. UPDATING FIRMWARE for detailed information about this feature.
The modem uses ‘flash memory’ technology internally. This simplifies firmware updating – the update can be performed without opening the unit simply by connecting the modem to any 10/100BaseT Ethernet port on a user-supplied PC once Ethernet connectivity has been established. Firmware updates can be received via the Internet (from Comtech EF Data’s website), through e-mail, or on CD.
USB reflash is not available in this firmware release – please consult Comtech EF Data Customer Support for the release schedule of this feature.
1.3.12 Fully Accessible S ystem Topology (FAST)
See Appendix C. FAST ACTIVATION PROCEDURE for detailed information about this feature.
The CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem incorporates a number of optional features. In order to permit a lower initial cost, the unit may be purchased with only the desired features enabled.
If, at a later date, there is a need to upgrade the functionality of a unit, Comtech EF Data provides Fully Accessible System Topology (FAST), a technology which permits the purchase and installation of options through special authorization codes. These unique Fast Access Codes may be purchased from Comtech EF Data during normal business hours, and then loaded into the unit using the front panel keypad.
1–8
CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 12 Introduction MN/CDM570L.IOM
FAST System Theory
FAST allows an operator to order a unit precisely tai lored for the initial application. When service requirements change, FAST allows the operator to upgrade the topology of the unit on-location, within minutes, and without having to remove the unit from the setup. This accelerated upgrade is possible due to FAST’s extensive use of the programmable logic devices incorporated into Comtech EF Data products.
FAST Implementation
Comtech EF Data’s FAST system is factory-implemented in the modem. All FAST options are available through the basic platform unit at the time of order. FAST allows immediate activation of available options – first, upon entry of the FAST Access Code through the front panel keypad, and then by setting the desired operational parameters via the front panel, remote control, or Web Server interfaces.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Starting with Release 1.4.1 of the CDM-570/570L firm ware, the maximum symbol rate has been increased from 2.5 to 3.0 Msymbols/sec. This has been done without modification to the hardware, and as a consequence, there may be a small degradation in BER versus E
b/N0
performance for rates above 2.5 Msymbols/sec. The degradation is as follows: Rates from 2.5 to 2.65 Msps: degradation < 0.1 dB Rates from 2.65 to 2.80 Msps: degradation < 0.2 dB Rates from 2.80 to 3.00 Msps: degradation < 0.3 dB

2.2 Rack-mounting the CDM-570/570L
When mounting the CDM-570/570L into a rack enclosure:
• PROPER GROUNDING PROTECTION IS REQUIRED. The equipment must be
connected to the protective earth connection at all times. It is therefore imperative that the unit is prop erl y groun ded, us ing th e grou nd stud pr ovid ed on the unit rear panel, during installation, con figuration , and operation.
• PROPER AIR VENTILATION IS REQUIRED. In a rack system where there is
high heat discharge, provide forced-air cooling with top- or bottom-mounted fans or blowers.

3.2 IF Connections
There may be DC voltages present on the Type ‘N’ Rx and Tx IF connectors, up to a maximum of 48 volts.
CDM-570L: The IF port connectors are both 50Ω ‘N’ female types. The return loss on these ports is greater than 19 dB (typically better than 21 dB). If there is a need to connect to a 75Ω system, an inexpensive ‘N’ to ‘F’ type adapter can be used. While there will be a reduction in return loss when doing this, the effect in most systems will be imperceptible.
CDM-570: The IF port connectors are both BNC female types. The return loss on these ports is greater than 17 dB (typically better than 19 dB) in BOTH 50Ω and 75Ω systems.

Chapter 4. UPDATING FIRMWARE
4.1 Updating Firmware via Internet
The CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem uses Flash memory technology internally, which eliminates the need for updating firmware by physically replacing EPROMs. This simplifies firmware updating – the update can be performed without opening the unit, once Ethernet connectivity has been established, by connecting the modem to any 10/100BaseT Ethernet port on a user-supplied PC. Firmware updates can be received via the Internet (from Comtech EF Data’s website), through e-mail, or obtained on CD from Comtech EF Data Customer Support.
This chapter outlines the complete upgrading process as follows:
• New firmware can be downloaded from Comtech EF Data’s website to a user-supplied
PC.
• The update can be performed without opening the CDM-570/570L by connecting the unit to
the serial or Ethernet port of the user PC.
• The firmware update is then transferred, via File Transfer Protocol (F TP), fr om the user PC to
the CDM-570/570L.
4.2 About Firmware Files, Naming, Versions and Formats
All CEFD products are shipped configured with the current version firmware release. Comtech EF Data’s website catalogues its firmware update files by product type (e.g., modem, converter, etc.) and specific model/optional configuration. The naming schematic at right shows the Base Modem firmware download hyperlink F10805**_V###, where ‘**’ denotes the revision letter, and ### represents the release version, of the firmware.
In addition to the download for the Base Modem bulk firmware, downloads are available for the optional Ethernet IP V1/MPP-50 or V2/MPP-70 Module. Available with or without 3xDES Encryption, this option for the CDM-570/570L requires separate firmware update (the procedure for update of this optional interface is also provided in this document).

5.1.1 LED Indicators
In general, the Alarm relay state will reflect the state of the Front Panel LEDs. For instance, if the Unit Status LED is red, the Unit Alarm relay will be active, etc. The one exception is the Transmit Traffic relay. This will only be activated if a Transmit Traffic Fault exists – it does not reflect the state of the TX carrier.
The behavior of the eight front panel LED Indicators is as follows:

5.1.3 Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD)
The CDM-570/570L features a Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD). The VFD is an active display showing
two lines of 24 characters each. It produces a blue
light, the brightness of which can be user-controlled. Compared to a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), it has greatly superior viewing characteristics and does not suffer problems of viewing angle or contrast.
On most menu screens, a flashing solid block cursor blinks at a once-per-second rate. This indicates the currently selected item, digit, or field. Where it might obscure the item being edited (e.g., a numeric field), the solid block cursor automatically changes to an underline cursor.
If the operating unit is left displaying the same screen for weeks at a time, the VFD could become ‘burnt’ with this image. To prevent such ‘burn-in’ a ‘screen saver’ feature activates after 1 hour. The screen saver message moves from right to left across the screen, then wraps around. The user-configurable Circuit ID displays on the VFD top line, while the bottom line displays the demod lock state (i.e., ‘Demod not locked.’ or the circuit E locked) followed by ‘Press any key...’. Press any key to return to the previous screen.

(Forward Error Correction) Used to select the method of FEC used for transmission
(Viterbi, TPC, etc). FEC type takes the highest configuration priority.
(Modulation) Used to select the modulation type used for transmission (BPSK, QPSK, 8-PSK, etc.). The choice of modulation will depend on the FEC type chosen.
(FEC Code Rate) Used to select the FEC Code Rate used for transmission (Rate 1/2, Rate 3/4, etc.). The choice of Code Rate will depend on both the FEC type and Modulation selected.
(Data Rate) Used to select the transmit data rate, in steps of 1 bps. The choice of data rate will depend on the FEC type, Modulation, and Code Rate selected.
(Frequency) Used to select the transmit frequency, in steps of 100Hz.
CDM-570L range: 950 MHz to 2000 MHz CDM-570 range: 50 to 90 MHz and 100 to 180 MHz
(Output Power level) Used to control the output level of transmit carrier, either
manually, or using the AUPC (Automatic Uplink Power Control) feature.
(Scrambler) Used to select whether or not data scrambling is used.
(Clock Source) Used to select the clock source for transmission. This can be from the
CDM-570L’s high stability internal source, from an external source, or from the distant­end of the satellite link (loop timed).
(Inversion) Used to invert the sense of the transmitted spectrum, or to invert the sense of the transmitted baseband data.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: The FEC type takes the highest configuration priority, and the selection here depends on what, if any, optional plug-in codecs are installed. The choice of FEC type then determines what modulation types, code rates, and data rates are available. The order of hierarchy is therefore:
FEC type (Highest) ► Modulation type ► Code Rate ► Data Rate (Lowest)
If a parameter is changed within this hierarchy, the other parameters may become invalid. In this case, the software will change those other parameters, in order that the configuration remains valid at all times.
Example: Suppose you select Viterbi + Reed-Solomon, QPSK, Rate 1/2. Now, you
5–12
CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 12 Front Panel Operation MN/CDM570L.IOM
change the modulation type from QPSK to 16-QAM. In this case, Rate 1/2 is no longer a valid code rate, and so it will be automatically changed to the nearest valid code rate (Rate 3/4).
