The DW6000 Terminal system is a cost-effective satellite terminal providing high-speed broadband access to the small/medium enterprise (SME), small office-home office (SOHO), and rural markets. The DW6000 provides highly efficient, two-way satellite services. DW6000 terminal is designed to provide users with an easy networking solution to connect multiple computers to broadband access via satellite. The DW6000 achieves a high level of functionality with its ability to plug into a variety of external appliances to support voice, legacy protocols, and streaming media applications.
The DW6000 terminal delivers broadband access to one or multiple users connected to the same satellite terminal. The system supports two-way connectivity between the remote units and the Internet and intranet networks. The DW6000 receives and transmits data through the system's antenna and outdoor electronics, over the satellite, and via the DIRECWAY Network Operations Center (NOC). TCP connections can be initiated to or from hosts at the remote locations.
The DW6000 is a self-hosted and self-booting standalone terminal. It provides an integrated broadband LAN solution to Windows, UNIX, Mac, and other platforms running IP over Ethernet. The terminal passes IP data packets to and from any IP device on the LAN. It can also act as a firewall, using rules-based filters.
The DW4020 terminal implements the Hughes Performance Enhancement Proxy (PEP) feature, reducing the number of TCP handshakes and compressing user data. This feature minimizes latency over the space link and accelerates the throughput performance so that data can be delivered quickly to the user.
