SkyWAN FAD-9350/-9400

Cost Effective Voice Via Satellite

ND SatComs SkyWAN FAD-9350/-9400

is a cost effective voice and data integrated
access device for a satellite based Frame Relay
network. It packetizes and compresses voice,
and transports it along with LAN, or serial
data over SkyWAN.
Depending on end user demand, two types of
devices are available:
The SkyWAN FAD 9350 unit is a low cost, small
branch frame relay access device (FAD). It is
offering four serial parts for data traffic and 2
or 4 analogue voice channels.
The SkyWAN FAD 9400 unit is a versatile FAD
solution for main offices and headquarters. It
is offering eight serial parts for data traffic
and up to 8 analogue or, at maximum 30 digital voice channels.

FAD-9400

Both units can hold LAN interfaces supporting

Ethernet or Token Ring. The built in router
supports LAN routing protocols like RIP or OSPF.
The unit prioritizes incoming traffic depending on
the traffic source, allowing toll voice quality over
satellite.
The FAD-9350/-9400 is connected to SkyWAN
via Real Time Call Mode guaranteeing dedicated
bandwidth for voice applications. SkyWAN is a
MF-TDMA VSAT system offering full meshed
topologies.
SkyWAN and FAD-9350/-9400 together offer
premium quality of service for voice via satellite
with minimum bandwidth requirements.
