Architecture
Full bridging architecture when supported by CRS-150, or SMS-301
data switching and control, with configuration synchronization.
Tx redundancy supports all BUC interface signals (RF, 10 MHz
reference, FSK communications, and power supply)
Rx IF signal fed to both Online and Backup units. Rx switching
supports all LNB interface signals (RF, 10 MHz reference, and power
supply.)
Switch Conditions
Tx/Rx switching follows state of supporting data switching via control input
from data switch.
IF Switching / Splitting
Tx IF: Switched by RF relay (1.5 dB max loss, 40 dB min ON/OFF
isolation)
Rx IF: Passive power splitting (7 dB max loss)
BUC Power Switching
Switched by power relay (60VDC max, 4A max)
BUC 10 MHz Reference Switching
Switched by relay (1 dB max loss, 70dB min ON/OFF isolation)
BUC FSK Comms Switching
Switched by relay (70dB min ON/OFF isolation)
LNB Power Switching
Switched by power relay (28 VDC max)
LNB 10 MHz Reference Switching
Switched by relay (1 dB max loss)
