iDirect Expands Evolution Product Line; Upgrades Software

iDirect has expanded its Evolution DVB-S2/ACM product line to include the Evolution X5 Satellite Router, Evolution XLC-11 and XLC-M line cards, the company announced.
    The new products aim to provide greater processing power, bandwidth efficiencies and flexibility to craft new revenue-generating service offerings, the company said.
    Evolution X5 supports high-end enterprise networks operated by banks and financial institutions and works with iDirect’s mobility features for the maritime market such as automatic beam switching and spread spectrum. X5 also supports iDirect’s global network management system capability. The router can be deployed with a 60cm stabilized Ku-band antenna supporting broadband data requirements and facilitating VoIP and video traffic.
     The hardware launch is coupled with an upgrade to iDirect’s operating software, iDX 2.0,  which aims to provide a more efficient inbound coding technology. The upgrade also brings together iDirect’s Evolution and Infiniti product lines onto a single platform.
