System description
The optical transmitter OTF302 is intended to distribute SAT IF and DTT, FM, DAB signals through a fibre optic.
Transmitted SAT IF signal 290-2350 MHz is collected from wideband LNB LWB201L / LWB202L.
DTT, FM, DAB signals are collected from DTT processing units MCA101L / MCA101T.
