TechniSat TechniBox VIACAM instruction manual Technical Data, Satellite Receiver, Universal LNB

Satellite Receiver:

The signals received and modulated by the LNB cannot be processed by the TV set. The receiver alters the frequency of these signals so that usable audio and video signals (AV) are generated at its outputs, which are transmitted to the TV set.

SCART:

Type of connector used in conjunction with TV sets, video players, satellite receivers and other electronic equipment in order to transmit audio and video signals (AV).

Transponder:

Piece of equipment in the satellite that processes one or more programmes, including recei- ving the data from the ground station, amplification, retransmission of data back to earth.

Universal LNB:

Name given to a three-band LNB. It is able to receive the following ranges: FFS (10.70-11.70 GHz), BBS (11.70-12.50 GHz) and FFS High Band (12.50-12.75 GHz). This whole range is usually divided into two bands:

Low Band:	10.70 - 11.80	GHz; LOF 9750 MHz
High Band:	11.70 - 12.75	GHz; LOF 10600 MHz

VIACCESS

Form of digital encryption (scrambling)
