Enterprise SATCOM Gateway Modems (ESGMs)

Abstract

The Navy Global Broadcast Service (GBS) Program is the Navy component of the Joint Military Satellite Communications (MILSATCOM) program that delivers the continuous flow of high-speed, high-volume communication and information flow for deploying, deployed, on the move, and garrisoned forces. The GBS system supports the Navy Strategic Plan and equips warfighters with counter Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2AD) communications in a denied Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) environment. GBS provides Satellite Communications (SATCOM) capability for forces afloat, ashore, and Naval Special Warfare Command. The Enterprise SATCOM Gateway Modem (ESGM) is the DoD Chief Information Officer directed solution to satisfy the Transmission Security (TRANSEC) requirement. This modem will replace the existing modem in the GBS System. Testing and fielding of the ESGM is a joint venture, operationally directed by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and the Air Force as the lead service. Additionally, the ESGM will continue to enable GBS reception of the Digital Video Broadcast - Satellite 2nd Generation (DVB-S2). FY18 GBS activities will complete integration and testing for the Enterprise Satellite Communications Gateway Modems (ESGM) technical baseline.
