System Congurations
The Intellian Multiband Antenna system is versatile to support
different variants of operations by the customers. Refer to
the following block diagrams to connect system cables.
Basic System Conguration (Single Data
Center)
The basic conguration consists of three antenna system
and one data center. This mode of operation can provide the
connection via GEO satellite constellations operating in C
and Ku band with the adoption of the appropriate modems
supported by the satellite network. The modem mediator
is required to select electronically via pre-conguration the
correct modem to be connected to the Multiband antenna
system. The minimum system conguration is shown in the
gure below which can provide seamless operation across
the tri-band operation.
With the triple Antenna Mediator, 3 multi-band antennas can
be congured to provide redundancy to blockages where
the 3 antennas would be installed at different locations
on a vessel. This will provide seamless and un-disrupted
connectivity to any satellite constellation.
NOTE: The system conguration may differ
depending on the modem type(C/Ku/Ka-band).
The GEO(C/Ku-band) can use the I/O console
system optionally.
Dual Data Center System Conguration
The gure below shows the conguration of a Tri-band
antenna system with a Dual Data Center which can provide
high versatility in connecting to the various satellite network.
If the antenna is installed as the Single Data Center(Primary)
system, the antenna needs to be installed additional one
Data Center(Secondary), Fiber Link Module and IFL Switch
Module to support the Dual Data Center System operation.
WARNING
WARNING: You must use identical modules in the
primary and secondary racks. If you have different
models or different versions of the same model
or different software, the DDC system will not
function properly.
