Newtec has partnered with Paradigm, which has now become the first company to host the Newtec Dialog® SMB3310 high-throughput modem board.
The two-way, high-throughput SMB3310 satellite modem board is now successfully embedded into Paradigm’s field-proven Paradigm Interface Module (PIM) terminal controller, which provides a common terminal interface for fixed and quick deploy terminals operating on all major satellite networks.

Through the PIM, the Newtec SMB3310 can interoperate with on-the-pause and SATCOM-On-The-Move (SOTM) terminals for Government, Defense, Broadcast and Mobility markets. The PIM is renowned for being easy-to-use and working seamlessly with compliant antennas and has a long track record in integrating a range of terminals.
The integration of SMB3310 and the PIM instantly gives customers access to the Newtec Dialog VSAT platform via Paradigm’s range of high-performance multi-band terminals including the lightweight, rugged and ultra-portable SWARM, the HORNET flyaway terminal, the Communications-On-The-Move (COTM) solution MANTA, and the cost-effective CONNECT100T tripod terminal.
The Newtec Dialog VSAT platform provides robust and resilient links which are efficient and affordable, thanks to the wideband DVB-S2X forward and the government-grade frequency hopping waveform Newtec Mx-DMA®, which includes features such as spread spectrum and randomization of carriers.
Executive Comments
Bart Baekelandt, Product Manager at Newtec, stated that the SMB3310-based PIM combines the efficiency and flexibility of the Newtec Dialog platform with the versatility and reliability of the PIM. The range of PIM-based terminals will allow Newtec Dialog users to roll-out a multitude of high-throughput fast-deploy applications on their Newtec Dialog platform, achieving the highest efficiency over satellite, wherever they may be located.
