<p>Three satellite antennas (102a, 102b, 102c) are each trained on a different satellite, and each of the antennas (102a, 102b, 102c) provide separate horizontally and vertically polarized outputs on separate lines (104a, 104b, 104c, 106a, 106b, 106c), each of these lines carrying a block of 12 transponder signals. Each of the separate lines (104a, 104b, 104c, 106a, 106b, 106c) are coupled to eight-way power splitters (108a, 108b, 108c, 108d, 108e, 108f). The outputs of each of the splitters (108a, 108b, 108c, 108d, 108e, 108f) are connected over a conventional interconnect bus/network (110) to the inputs of up to eight satellite transponder processors (112). The block may then be distributed to multiple subscribers.</p> |
