Satellite Modems & Modulators
Modems and modulators should not just enable you to provide high quality video services. DTH service providers don’t need a product that simply works. You need core hardware that you can depend on for decades, and you need the platform to be flexible enough to enable growth into new markets, expand your customer base, allow you to add new services to gain market share and increase ARPU. We understand your business model; our Comtech EF Data division is the world’s leader in DTH modem/modulator sales with products deployed by leading DTH providers worldwide.
With 4,000+ modems/modulators deployed by DTH providers, no other company has the background and experience of supporting high revenue DTH programs like Comtech does. |

Frequency Converters
Comtech EF Data's converters set the standard for consistent reliability and cost-effective, high-performance frequency conversion. Providing a demonstrated MTBF of 350,000 hours derived from greater than 10,000 fielded units and over 15 years of market leadership, our converters are an excellent choice for the stringent reliability requirements of broadcast systems.

High Power Amplifiers
High power amplifiers are a critical component in DTH uplinks. Amplifiers affect link performance, and are one of the major factors involved in determining availability, installation and operational costs. Our Comtech Xicom Technology division understands that you need the most cost-effective and reliable solution that provides the flexibility to grow your business. We are the DTH uplink amplifier provider of choice in North America and the leading outdoor traveling wave tube amplifier (TWTA) supplier worldwide.
TWTA solutions reduce the cost to purchase, install, operate and maintain the HPAs by over 75% when compared to indoor klystron power amplifiers (KPAs). We offer industry-leading high power outdoor packaged TWTA systems in C-, Ku-, DBS- and Ka-Band.
