Comtech EF Data’s second generation VersaFEC-2 comprises 74 new ModCods, with a new
family of constellations.
•
VersaFEC-2 has two modes:
o
Long Block – Maximum coding gain with higher latency.

38 ModCods – BPSK to 32-ARY modulation, 9600 symbol block size.

Spectral efficiency up to 4.4 bps/Hz for Long Block VersaFEC-2.
o
Short Block – Slightly lower coding gain with much lower latency.

36 ModCods - BPSK to 32-ARY modulation, 1600 symbol block size.

Short Block performance is, overall, considerably better than 1st
generation VersaFEC, with similar latency performance.

Short Block deliberately limits throughput to 2 Mbps in CCM (Constant
Coding and Modulation) and 1 Msps in ACM (Adaptive Coding and
Modulation). Above these limits, latency is no longer an issue, and Long
Block is preferred.

Spectral efficiency up to 4.15 bps/Hz for Short Block VersaFEC-2.
•
CCM and point-to-point ACM are supported in both modes.
•
In CCM, links can be run with VersaFEC-2 in one direction, and any other supported FEC
type in the other (Example: Rx = VersaFEC-2, Tx = TPC).
•
In ACM, the range of rate bit rate adaptation is approximately 9:1.
•
In ACM, both sides need to be VersaFEC-2, but Tx and Rx can be Short or Long – no
restrictions (but NOT compatible in any way with 1st generation VersaFEC).
•
If VersaFEC-2 is used on both sides of the link then, even in CCM operation, the remote
modem’s Eb/No can be seen on the front panel display/web pages, etc, of the local
modem.
•
VersaFEC-2 has increased throughput compared to VersaFEC – the full symbol rate of
12.5 Msps, and full bit rate of 25 Mbps in CCM and ACM (Long Block) are supported.
•
VersaFEC-2 provides five modulation types – BPSK, QPSK, 8-ARY, 16-ARY, and 32-
ARY.
