This document and all information contained therein it is owned by Egatel S.L.
It should not be copied, published or reproduced in whole or in part, without express consent from the owner.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
This device works in combination with an off-set horn-fed dish antenna with a
maximum gain of 39.4 dB
This device has been granted with the following FCC ID: 2AGKM820003-02
Danger: FCC Radio Frequency Exposure Information
In order to comply with the FCC RF exposure requirements, it is
required to maintain a separation distance between the user and the
antenna of 11.76m (antenna main beam) and 27cm (horizontal: -10
degrees off-axis).
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for class
B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
Smart LNB
−
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
−
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
−
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
−
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

1.3. General Description.
The Smart LNB is an electronic device that opens the door to a new wide range of
satellite services.
It features the most advanced technology in satellite transmission and it makes use
of a high spectrum efficiency modulation for the uplink.
This technology allows satellite operators to offer their services in either unconnected
or connected areas, at a low cost at the equipment and service level.
Its objective is to provide high added value services to traditional satellite
High added-value M2M services/ domotics: Home control automation, e-health,
connected TV...)
The Smart LNB is based on the following devices, all of them provided by Egatel:

Architecture: The Indoor Unit consists of a single card that connects the ODU and
the Set-top-box (STB). Its main features are:
−
It process broadcast and M2M services.
−
Maintain communication with the ODU through coaxial cable following the
HomePlug-AV protocol.
−
Processes the IP data and route it according to its destination: ODU or user’s
LAN. Two-way path: ODU to user’s LAN and user’s LAN to ODU.
−
Web GUI interface to manage the ODU and IDU. The system is passwordprotected so only the authorized users can access to it.
