“DIFI’s mission is to accelerate the digital transformation of the satellite industry,” said DIFI Board Chairman Stuart Daughtridge. “That work starts with developing and making widely available a simple, open, interoperable Digital IF/RF standard that replaces the natural interoperability of analog IF signals and helps prevent vendor lock-in. That’s why organizations like these are joining DIFI and serving on its Board: to help drive the future of the industry while ensuring that the evolving interoperability standard continues to meet their critical needs.”
