Viasat Linkstar

Viasat Linkstar is the highest performance, star-based VSAT system for service providers, ISPs, and corporate network managers who are seeking a system based on DVB standards. LinkStar's edge is in its dynamic bandwidth allocation that makes it more efficient and faster than other TDMA systems. Terminals can transmit data to the network hub at speeds up to 1.15 Mbps, with data downloads of up to 60 Mbps, satisfying bandwidth-intensive applications using IP data.

Viasat LinkStar offers several benefits:

Viasat LinkStar can operate over C- or Ku-band frequencies, and is scalable to small or large networks. A Web-based NMS makes it simple to operate and easy to configure.
