External Reference Ku-Band

PLL LNB 1000X Series

LNB

The 1000X series LNB provides the best system BER

performance and is used in applications requiring very fast data
acquisition time or very low data rates.
The single reliable connector supplies the 10 MHz external reference, the DC power
from the receiver and the L-band IF signal to the receiver. External reference LNBs
require specifically designed receivers and are used in the following applications:
SCPC digital or analog voice channels
Low speed SCPC data from 10 kbps to 512 Kbps, or any higher data rate
Not commonly used for video
