1. ODU = outdoor unit.
2. VSAT = very small aperture terminal.
3. DVB = Digital Video Broadcasting.
4. The receive direction at the remote VSAT is called the outbound direction from the hub. See the
Communications Network" section on page
5. LNB = low noise block converter.
6. RF = radio frequency.
7. SSPA = solid state block converter and power amplifier.
8. The transmit direction at the remote VSAT is called the inbound direction to the hub. See the

Installing the NM-1VSAT-GILAT Network Module in the Router Chassis
To install the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module in the router chassis, see the
Network Modules in Cisco Access
Installation Guide.
Connecting the NM-1VSAT-GILAT Network Module to the ODU
This section describes how to connect the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module to the ODU.
Shielded RG-6, RG-11, or both types of RF cables are used to connect the NM-1VSAT-GILAT
network module to the ODU. Typically, a satellite service provider installation technician installs the
ODU, connects RG-11 cables to the dish antenna, and runs the RG-11 cables to the area near the router.
The technician also typically terminates the RG-11 cables and adds short RG-6 cables, which are then
connected to the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module in the router.
