AGENDA: Introduction Why sky X- Technology? Application Merits Future Enhancement Conclusion

2

Introduction : Satellites are an attractive option for carrying Internet and other IP traffic to many locations across the globe where terrestrial options are limited . The Sky X technology replaces TCP over satellite link with a protocol optimized for the high loss and bandwidth conditions of the typical satellite communication. Adding the Sky X system to a satellite network allows users to take full advantage of the available bandwidth

3

The Sky X technology transparently enhances the performance of all users on a satellite network .

The Sky X increases web performance by 3 times or more and file transfer speeds by 10 to 100 times. The Sky X solution is entirely transparent to end users, works with all TCP applications and does not require any modifications to end client and servers.

Why sky X-Technology??? Satellites are ideal for providing internet and private network access over long distance and to remote locations. However the internet protocols are not optimized for satellite conditions and consequently the throughput over the satellite networks is restricted to only a fraction of available bandwidth. Thus We need sky x technology to over come these restrictions and to access maximum bandwidth.5

Sky x-Gateway :The Sky X gateway works by intercepting the TCP connection from the client and converting the data to the XTP for transmission over the satellite. The Sky X gateway on the opposite side of the satellite link translates the data back to TCP for communication with the server. This architecture offers vastly improved performance while remaining entirely transparent to the end user and fully compactable with the internet infrastructure. No changes are required to the client or server and all applications continue to function without modification.6

The SkyX Gateway XR10 is well suited to networks with high latency, high bit error and asymmetric links. SkyX Gateway XR10 Specifications

Bandwidth Connection Rate

:- Up to 10 Mbps :- 100 conns/sec

Designed as an remote device, it performs best at maximum bandwidth with a single, very large FTP and supports an industry-best number of simultaneous sessions and connection turnover rate.

7

Application : Used for Satellite communication. Used for accessing web in fastest speed. Used For data transfer, File Transfer efficiently.

8

Merits : Increases web performance 3 times faster. Does not require any modifications to end client and servers. Sky X Gateway provides fast, efficient, fully reliable multicast file transfers.

9

Future Enhancement : A product called XipLink which is under developing will replace the Sky X. It is very much the same as the Sky X with extra capabilities. It optimize all TCP/IP traffic, basically the link itself.

10

Conclusion : Thus Sky -x technology is best suited for for satellite communication using XTP protocol and Sky x gateway. The Sky X system of a satellite network allows users to take full advantage of the available bandwidth It gives all features required for successful data Transmission.
