This Unicable II™ LNB is based on digital channel stacking technology and allows to connect up to 32 satellite receivers over a single coax cable. The LNB support the standard EN50494/EN50607 protocols, allowing the connected receivers to access any transponder of the received satellite (also known as ‘Dynamic’ mode).
Alternatively, the LNB can be configured to down-convert a programable set of up to 32 transponders (depending on the bandwidth of the desired transponders) and stack them over its output (also known as ‘Static’ mode). This mode allows an unlimited number of receivers to be connected and access these transponders.
Digital channel stacking technology uses fast wideband analog to digital converters and applies digital signal processing to select desired transponder channels, up convert them and stack them as IF signals over the output port. Unicable II™ LNBs offer a cost effective and elegant solution for distributing the satellite signals to multiple set-top-boxes (multiroom) or multi-tuner PVRs over existing cabling hence significantly reducing cost and complexity of the installation at the subscribers’ homes. The Static mode, allowing an unlimited number of receivers to be connected to the LNB over a single cable distribution, makes installations in buildings, campuses and closed communities substantially cheaper and simpler than ever before. The operating mode (dynamic/static), output power level, channel bandwidth, UB frequencies and dish alignment mode are all programmable and can be configured and updated in the field using Inverto’s SatPal™ Controller*.
The LNB can be powered over a connected STB or by an AC/DC adapter over a power inserter in case the STB is unable to provide the necessary power. Unicable II™ is backward compatible, fully compliant with both EN50494 and EN50607 standards and integrates seamlessly into EN50494-only or mixed EN50494/EN50607 installations of compatible STBs, Next Generation PVRs and HGWs.
