Hot Swap Redundant Dual Ku-Down Converter System

• The “Ku RDC System” is a compact and comprehensively Down Converter System, fully redundant, fully remote controllable, can supply simultaneously Low & High Band, Vertical & Horizontal (or Circular Left & Right) polarity via RF COAX or opt. Optic Fiber.
• The RF Redundancy Switch are protected against power failure thanks to Ultracap Technology.
• Thanks to 5 front plug-in module, all parts can be HOT SWAPPED with minimum services interruptions, each module has an indipendent Microcontroller and Memory to clone the New Module installed.
• The “Ku RDC System” is controllable via Local display or remotely via WEB GUI & SNMP; through N. 2 Ethernet port and thanks to N. 2 SFP Slot can be connected/controlled also via fiber optic.
