Next-Generation
Networks
Globecomm specializes in designing and building next-generation
satellite and hybrid networks based on an Internet Protocol platform
that can seamlessly support multiple applications. Next-generation
networks reduce complexity and cost by carrying multiple forms of
traffic – from voice to video to data – as IP packets, using
advanced coding to ensure high performance.
Designing and building next-gen networks, however, presents major
challenges. Existing network devices for many applications use
non-IP protocols and software, and multiple protocol conversions are
required to make every device speak the same digital "language."
Networks that include "a little bit of satellite" present even
bigger issues. IP was never designed to handle the signal delay of a
satellite link, with its minimum 45,000-mile hop from transmitter to
receiver. Unless the network is conditioned to handle this
challenge, performance suffers and costly bandwidth goes wasted.
Globecomm has the expertise to design and manage next-generation
networks for high throughput and uptime. We have experience with a
wide range of network applications, from voice-video-data triple
play networks to air-traffic control, mobile telephony
call-processing and backhaul to Auxiliary Terrestrial Components for
satellite radio.
