The RCST terrestrial interface is a standard 10/100BaseT. The TCP Acceleration processing
engine is built into the RCST software. The maximum aggregate TCP data transmission rate for
each RCST is 10Mbps.
The RCST comes with L-Band IF interfaces and can be rack-mounted. Depending upon the
satellite link requirements, the StarPro1 RCST is deployable in VSATs ranging from sub-meter
0.96m/1-Watt Ku-band units to 2.4m/. 5-Watt C-

A rack mounted RCST must occupy 3U space where the top 2U space is left empty as to ensure
adequate cooling. Less space can cause overheating and failure of the terminal.
Similarly, a tabletop mounted RCST requires the placement to be cool and well ventilated. No
other items may be resting on top of the unit to ensure adequate cooling.
