Solve Narrowband RF Transport
Limits with Digital IP Conversion

Traditional ground systems require antennas and RF processing equipment to be physically colocated, limiting where operators can build, scale, and maintain their networks. Analog RF degrades over distance, relies on specialized cabling, and makes it difficult to support distributed architectures or shift signal processing into the cloud.

SpectralNet Narrowband removes these constraints by digitizing up to 54 MHz of RF spectrum in real time and transporting it as VITA-49 IP packets over any network. As a carrier-grade digitizer, it delivers deterministic, distance-agnostic transport that preserves timing, frequency, and waveform integrity while enabling operators to adopt virtualized architectures across satellite ground systems. With assured performance over impaired links, built-in redundancy, and a compact form factor for remote sites, SpectralNet Narrowband provides a reliable digital on-ramp to modern virtual ground systems.
