D.1.1.2 Interoperability Compatibility/Limitations
• CDM-570A/570AL-IP CDM-570A/570AL-IP Interoperability: The
CDM-570A/570AL-IP is not interoperable for IP/Ethernet Traffic with a CDM-570A/570AL
that is not
equipped with the optional Packet Processor.
• Modem Compatibility: The CDM-570A/570AL-IP is compatible with other Comtech EF
Data IP (CDM-IP) modems, provided the modems have similar operating modes and IP
options when the CDM-570A/570AL-IP is configured to operate in CDM-570
Compatibility Mode.
The following Comtech EF Data IP products are compatibile with the CDM-570A/570AL-IP:
Comtech EF Data IP Product
IP Module
(HDLC Versions ONLY)*
Additional Restrictions
CDM-570/L Satellite Modem with IP Module
CDD-564/L Quad Demodulator with IP
Module
Version 1.6.9 or later No restrictions
CDD-562L Quad Demodulator with IP
Module
Version 1.6.9 or later No restrictions
• CDM-570A/570AL-IP CDM-570/L-IP or CDD-564/L IP Quad Demodulator
Interoperability: A CDM-570A/570AL-IP is interoperable with the CDM-570/L-IP (CDM-
570/L Satellite Modem w/Optional IP Module) and/or the CDD-564/L Quad Demodulator with
IP Module using HDLC and compatible modulation, Forward Error Correction (FEC), symbol
rate, etc.
*The CDM-570A/570AL-IP is NOT compatible with the Streamline Encapsulation
(SLE) version of the CDM-570/L, CDD-564/L, and CDD-562/L products.
