Anyone bought one?  

This is obviously a precursor (little brother) to the eVOLUTION platforms that are right around the corner.  Matter of fact, the eVOLUTION (DVBS2) line cards can snap into this 4slot hub - As you can see from the spec sheet (higher data rates supported).

iDS 9.0 is due out very soon.  It should contain the DVBS2/ACM capability as well as the Freq-Hop mesh topology (versus doing the carrier grooming thing in a single inbound).  

2008 is going to be an interesting year for iDirect.  Hubs are flying off the shelf already....this will throw fuel on the fire.

Are you asking what the difference is between Linkstar (Viasat) and iDirects DVBS2 technology?

Please clarify.

Dont have a lot of time to type an illustrious reply but the major difference in the two will naturally be the return channel efficency.  iDirect will remain proprientary (and now patented).  Rather than typing a page of text, I would recommend visiting the Linkstar page as well as iDirects page for a quick compare/contrast.  The spec sheets are all you really need to render an assessment.

Thank for the new Mike,

I heard that the 5IF Hub has an offer with 8 Line cards, All is 150.000 $ as special offer. This will give you the full hardware platform but you can use only* 8 LCs instead of 20 cards, I searched for this offer but I didn't find anything like that. If anyone know about this please let me know. Thanks a lot !


* To activate the remaining cards additional cost to be added to have the Full software package that support All 20 LCs.

I have never heard of it.  I would think that a 5IF chassis would be wired for 20 cards in any case.

Have you spoken to your service provider?  They are the ones who set it.  You can try the default (below), but if they are half-way intelligent they have changed it by now. 

Default:

admin
iDirect
