The Next-generation Unified Solution• KVH created mini-VSAT Broadband as a fully
integrated hardware and service solution– KVH designs and manufactures hardware– KVH owns the ArcLight® spread spectrum technology hubs– KVH leases the satellite bandwidth and teleports– KVH manages the satellite network – KVH provides best-of-breed onboard network management– KVH provides 24/7/365 support through a global
field service network
• One antenna, one network, one unified solution
Unique Spread Spectrum Technology• ViaSat next-generation ArcLight technology powers the network
– Designed for military to provide robust connectivity in mobile applications – PCMA (Paired Carrier Multiple Access) enables spectrum efficiency and data rates as
fast as 4 Mbps with smaller antennas– CRMA (Code Reuse Multiple Access) frequency re-use and burst message transmission
efficiency results in lower airtime costs• Critical benefits
– Simultaneous transmission of data at fastest data rates available
– Lower contention than equally sized TDMA networks
– Shorter ping times– Significantly lower latency than most
L-Band services
Worldwide Network Infrastructure• KVH built the mini-VSAT network with a robust, redundant infrastructure
