ViaSat wants to be all it can be via satellite. The company makes digital satellite, networking, and wireless signal processing equipment. Its products are based on the demand-assigned multiple-access standard, which enables users to share common satellite transponders to save money. Products include satellite modems, networking processors, network control systems and software, and spread-spectrum digital radios. ViaSat also offers system design and integration services. The US Department of Defense accounted for about 70% of sales in fiscal 2000. With its acquisition of Scientific-Atlanta's satellite networking businesses, the company has shifted its focus to commercial applications in broadband satellite networking.
