With the dish aligned correctly on the correct satellite, the IPmodem automatically seeks out the initial receive carrier frequency (10.891 GHz) and establishes a satellite connection. To enable an SES Broadband dish to be used for normal satellite TV reception, a "Quad LNB and Multifeed Clamp" upgrade can be fitted to the terminal dish.
A foldable Bigpond satellite Internet dish. Satellite communications are affected by moisture and various forms of precipitation (such as rain or snow) in the signal path between end users or ground stations and the satellite being utilized. This interference with the signal is known as rain fade. The effects are less pronounced on the lower ...

An eight-way optical signal splitter to feed eight virtual LNBs or further splitters from a single optical feed. While optical fibre has been used for telephone and Internet backbone data, and even for television and multimedia carriage for terrestrial cable, for many years, use for satellite IF distribution has been held back by considerations of cost and installation convenience.
A 2.5 m parabolic dish antenna for bidirectional satellite Internet access. A very-small-aperture terminal (VSAT) [1] is a two-way satellite ground station with a dish antenna that is smaller than 3.8 meters. The majority of VSAT antennas range from 75 cm to 1.2 m. Bit rates, in most cases, range from 4 kbit/s to 16 Mbit/s.
The "IP modem" (satellite modem) developed and made by Newtec of Belgium for SES' 2Mbit/s ASTRA2Connect European two-way satellite Internet system. Satellite modems are often used for home internet access. There are two different types, both employing the Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard as their basis: One-way satmodems (DVB-IP modems ...
