> SATELLITE GLOSSARY
LNB: Low Noise Block. Situated in the end of the dish feeder arm. Amplifies and
changes the frequency of the incoming satellite signals so that your satellite
receiver can handle them.
;
SCART
CONNECTOR:
21 pin connector used for TV, Video and Satellite
equipment. Also known as Peritel connector, Euroconnector.
DISH ANTENNA: Signals transmitted from a satellite are weak by the time they
reach the Earth. Incoming signals are focussed to a point by the curve of the dish
aerial and picked up by the feeder arm assembly. They then travel down a coaxial
cable to your receiver unit.
SIGNAL POLARISATION: Satellite signals are usually polarised to enable more
channels to be crammed into the available frequency bands. Types of polarisation
used include Horizontal
(H), Vertical (V), Left Handed
Circular (L) or Right
Handed Circular (R).
SKEW: Polarity adjustments done on a saitellite-to-satellite basis. These are
needed because signals coming from different satellites will arrive at the receiving
site at differing angles.
ACTUATOR: Drive motor system used to move a satellite dish antenna between
positions.
