MIGRATION
CAPABLE

Deploy latest generation Orbit remotes operating in backwards compatible Transparent Mode or Packet-with-MAC for interoperability with existing networks.

Evolve to higher performing QAM and latest generation networking and security features by migrating networks of mixed x710, SD, Orbit radios to full Orbit networks.

Master Station with SD Radio Modules may be swapped out with Orbit radio modules to support field upgradability with very little down time.
