CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 4
Summary of Specifications
IMPORTANT NOTE: Starting with Release 1.4.1 of the CDM-570/570L firmware, 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 Eb/No 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
