Term used to describe the whole system mounted externally, consisting of the parabolic or offset dish as well as one or more LNCs, to provide reception from one or more satellites

AV: see SCART

Data compression/MPEG1/MPEG2:

The current television standard (625 lines and 50 Hz picture repeat frequency) provides a digital data volume of 216 MBit/s.

This would require bandwidths simply not available either ter- restrially or via satellite. The data volume is thus reduced by means of a data reduction system. For Europe, the internatio- nally determined standard for data compression is MPEG-2. MPEG-2 is an expanded version of MPEG-1
