Teledyne Paradise Datacom Background
Paradise Datacom Ltd. was founded in 1989 in the United Kingdom, specialized in the design and manufacture of IBS/IDR framing units and later produced a full line of satellite modems. Paradise Datacom LLC was founded in 1997 in the United States, and acquired the Locus Communications products group of ITT, with history in Satellite Communications Engineering dating back to 1968. Paradise Datacom also acquired the SierraCom VSAT product line in 2002. Paradise Datacom is a member of Teledyne Technologies Inc., which is a leading provider of sophisticated electronic components and subsystems, instrumentation and communications products, including defense electronics, monitoring and control instrumentation for marine, environmental and industrial applications, harsh environment interconnect products, data acquisition and communications equipment for air transport and business aircraft, and components and subsystems for wireless and satellite communications. We also provide engineered systems and information technology services for defense, space and environmental applications, manufacture general aviation engines and components, and supply energy generation, energy storage and small propulsion products.

Teledyne Paradise Datacom Qualifications
Teledyne Paradise Datacom’s primary role is that of a premier supplier of satellite communications products and subsystems designed and manufactured by Paradise Datacom in our UK and US factories Our engineers are constantly seeking the latest technologies and processes resulting in the highest power solid state amplifiers packaged in the smallest and lightest packages and satellite modems that possess feature such as imbedded diagnostics tools that allow “in system” tests to be performed from virtually any location in the world.

Teledyne Paradise Datacom presently occupies 22,000 square feet of office, laboratory, and factory space in State College. This factory located in Innovation Park, adjacent to Penn State University, produces our extensive line of RF products. This facility houses engineering offices, documentation services, laboratories, training rooms, service department, manufacturing and assembly areas. Wired for the wide range of international power requirements, the facility is equipped to handle any system configuration.

A second facility located in Witham, UK consists of over 43,000 square feet dedicated to the design and manufacture of digital communications products such as our P300 series of satellite modems as well as our new Evolution Series high data rate modems and associated redundancy switching products.

Our Atlanta, Ga., facility is tooled to produce our satellite modem products, which allows us to better serve our US-based customers through shorter lead times and faster support.

The Western regional sales group operates out of our Tempe, Az., offices, where RF engineers continue to make advances in our converter assemblies used in our rack converters, Mini Compact Outdoor SSPAs and other products.
