  2. Low-noise block downconverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-noise_block_downconverter

    LNBs for fibre satellite distribution systems operate in a similar way to conventional electrical LNBs, except that all four of the sub-bands in the entire K u band spectrum of 10.70–12.75 GHz across two signal polarisations are simultaneously block-downconverted (as in a quattro LNB).

  3. Monoblock LNB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoblock_LNB

    Two monoblock LNB can be connected to one receiving dish using Multi-satellite techniques. However, the expected results of such connections may vary or be sub-optimal. The results may yield low-level signals from some or all of the satellites or it may work well in certain geographically favorable locations.

  4. Block upconverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_upconverter

    An example of a system utilizing both a BUC and an LNB is a VSAT system, used for bidirectional Internet access via satellite. The block upconverter is a block shaped device assembled with the LNB in association with an OMT, orthogonal mode transducer to the feed-horn that faces the reflector parabolic dish. This is opposed to other types of ...

  5. Fibre satellite distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_satellite_distribution

    A virtual LNB with four electrical outputs for four tuners. The complete spectrum of Ku-band satellite reception stretches from 10.70 GHz-12.75 GHz across two signal polarisations, or a bandwidth of about 4000 MHz. This cannot be carried on a single coaxial cable and so in a conventional satellite reception system, just one of four sub-bands ...

  6. Single-cable distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-cable_distribution

    Special LNBs have been developed for use in single-cable distribution systems. All four sub-bands of the Ku band (low frequency/horizontal polarity, high frequency/horizontal polarity, low frequency/vertical polarity, high frequency/vertical polarity) are received by a conventional front end, amplified and downconverted to the L-band, to be fed to a number of SatCR (Satellite Channel Router ...

  7. Duo LNB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duo_LNB

    The Astra 23.5°E orbital position was established as a major source of direct-to-home (DTH) broadcasts for central and western Europe with the launch of Astra 3A at the end of 2007, [3] and some channels moved there from other satellite positions (in particular 19.2° east) so viewers, who were unable to erect two dishes to receive transmissions from both positions, had to choose between them.

  8. Orthomode transducer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthomode_transducer

    Orthomode transducer, VSAT K u band Outdoor unit, includes feed horn, OMT, LNB and BUC Orthomode transducer (Portenseigne, France) Orthomode transducer, vertical and horizontal polarity Antenna side of OMT. An orthomode transducer (OMT) is a waveguide component that is commonly referred to as a polarisation duplexer.

  9. Television receive-only - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_receive-only

    The stock LNBs fitted to typical BUDs will usually need to be replaced with one of a lower noise temperature to receive digital broadcasts. With a suitable replacement LNB (provided there is no warping of the reflector) a BUD can be used to receive free-to-air (FTA) and DBS signals. Several companies market LNBs, LNBFs, and adaptor collars for ...
