Network & Site Construction

SCSI offers a variety of shared hub and network services including compressed voice and data networks. Shared network services include using the Opa-Locka teleport as the hub in a star topology. Nodes access the network via the large hub which allows the earth stations in country to use VSAT technology.

Demand Assigned Multiple Access (DAMA) services are also available via the Opa-Locka teleport. The teleport operates as the Master Control Station (MCS) for users accessing the DAMA network. The MCS established all calls and provides network management and billing services. The DAMA network provides several advantages over the star network topology including reduced space segment costs, single hop connections, and low end-to-end delay.

Throughout the years SCSI has been responsible for the engineering, design, integration, and installation services worldwide. Specifically, in the eighties SCSI was responsible for the installation and integration over 1200 Holiday Inn video network sites, which provided pay TV in Holiday Inn Hotels.

With the advent of the proliferation of cable TV in the United States, SCSI designed , integrated, and supplied entire Satellite Master Antenna Television (SMATV) systems for United Cable Systems. SCSI has provided numerous two-way Very Small Aperature Terminals (VSAT) installations around the world.

SCSI has extensive experience with transmit/receive data systems manufactured by Fairchild Communications, Harris Corp., Scientific Atlanta, California Microwave, Via-Sat, Tellabs, Ascend, Microwave Filter, General Instrument, Radiation Systems, Sky Data, EF Data, Titan, Cisco, Livingston, Comstream, Micom, Newbriage, General DataComm, Cray, Summa 4, Varian, LNR, STS, Andrew, Vertex, and Prodelin.
