Figure at least 550 msec delay for a meshed VSAT (one-hop) architecture
assuming Geosynchronous satellites. The delay depends on the satellite
network archetecture deployed and terrestrial networks that are being utilized.

The link characteristics should be provided by the VSAT and Satellite
Network providers.
