Model 3005 L-Band Transport Link

The Model 3005 L-Band Satellite Transport
System provides an economical solution for
transporting digital signals for numerous satel­lite distribution applications, including headend
relocation. The system utilizes a cost-effective
coax cabling configuration to distribute the RF
signals from the dish to the transmitter and from
the receiver to the headend. The single-mode
optical fiber between the 3005 transmitter and
receiver allows transmission distances to 2 km
at 1310 nm. The transmitter has the ability to
supply LNB power at the remote dish site,
thereby decreasing the need and expense of
additional equipment. A front panel mounted
switch allows the user to select between +13
Volts and +18 Volts or disable the LNB power.
RF alarm and indicator LEDs allow for quick
assessment of the link’s operational status.
The Model 3005 L-Band Transport System,
whether used in an antenna remoting applica­tion or in a satellite distribution role, provides for
transmission of the entire L-Band spectrum in a
simplified, flexible installation environment at
one of the lowest costs found in today’s market.

Features

• Model 3005 transports the full L-Band spec­trum (950-2200 MHz) as a standard feature.

• LNB power is user-selectable as +13 Volts,
+18 Volts, or disabled; current limiting tech­nology eliminates down time due to blown
fuses.

• 75 Ohm operation.

• 3RU rack chassis accommodates eight

transmitters and/or receivers and two power
supplies for system reliability.

• System transmits signals up to 2 km and
increases the system’s value for antenna
remoting.

(1) All optical power levels are average values.
(2) The receiver contains a tri-colored optical input level LED indicator that

lights green when the proper optical input level is being received.
When the optical input falls below -3 dBm, the LED will turn orange,
and when the optical input exceeds +3 dBm, the LED will turn red.
The receiver also provides an indication of optical input level through
the DB-9 alarm connector, pins 4 and 6. These are open drain outputs
rated for a maximum of +24 volts at 20 mA. An external pull-up resis­tor is required for output which function as follows:

Optical Input Level

Pin 4 Pin 6
Too Low Low Low
OK Low Open
Too High Open Low

(3) Specification given at 3 dB optical loss, 27 MHz BW, +17 dBmV RF

input level. CNR is measured nominally for 27 MHz bandwidth and
tested at 1 GHz.

(4) The transmitter contains a tri-colored RF input level LED indicator. The

LED will be green when the proper RF level is being input to the trans­mitter. When the RF falls below optimum, the LED will change to
orange. When the RF level rises above optimum, the LED will change
to red. The transmitter also provides an indication of RF input level
through DB-9 alarm connector, pins 4 and 6. These are open drain
outputs rated for a maximum of +24 Volts at 20 mA. An external pull­up resistor is required for each output. The outputs function as fol­lows:

RF Level

Pin 4 Pin 6
Too Low Low Low
OK Low Open
Too High Open Low

(5) The maximum current draw specification is based on the transmitter

providing LNB power.
