The spread spectrum feature of iDirect Technologies' platform enables broadband communications on the move (COTM) over satellite. This technology is designed for military or commercial applications on land, sea or air and represents one of the first integrated COTM solutions that can be configured to provide star, mesh, SCPC and/or TRANSEC capabilities with the same remote. Spread spectrum technology allows for the implementation of small antennas by mitigating issues associated with spectral density. The net result is a mobile broadband communications network that can provide downstream speeds up to 18 Mbps to any location, in any environment, while end users are on the move.
