TESAT, one of the European market leaders in developing and manufacturing payload equipment for communication satellites and terminals for optical broadband communication in space has introduced a new Laser Communication Terminal for satellite networks.
The SCOT80 from TESAT is a laser communication terminal that has been designed to meet the challenges of the global satellite market and addresses the demand for evolving digital infrastructure and increasing data requirements. The development of the SCOT80 is driven by the idea to revolutionize communication technology and to excel the prevailing.
The SCOT80 was designed specifically for the LEO broadband constellation and has a range of 8000 km. It has a high channel data transfer rate of about 10 Gbps for optical inter-satellite links for networks. The terminal supports an ethernet data interface and has a power consumption of about 60-80 W. It has a mass of 15kg and measures 50 x 18 x 26 cm (Optical Head).
The SCOT80 has reliable pointing, acquisition, tracking, and communication with over 65,000 links performed. It comes with a scalable design (100Mbps to 100Gbps) and is compliant with SDA OCT Standard V3.0.
