  1. Receiving Equipment

  2. Introduction • This section discusses the variety of equipment and hardware the customer will need in order to receive the DIRECTV programming from the satellites

  3. Objectives • List the equipment and hardware needed to receive DIRECTV programming • Explain how the LNB operates • Explain how the receiver selects programming • List three functions of the access card • Identify the correct ODU/LNB configuration

  4. Receiving Equipment IRD- Integrated Receiver, Decoder LNB Low Noise Block, Down Converter ODU- Out Door Unit Access Card

  5. Receiving Equipment • What is an LNB? • LNB stands for Low Noise Block. It receives microwaves signals from the satellite, amplifies them and converts the signal to a lower frequency band

  6. Basic System Overview (ODU) • What is an LNB? • Low Noise Block Converter • What is Polarization and how many polarities are there? • 2 Circular polarities per orbital slot • Right Hand Circular • Left Hand Circular

  7. Basic System Overview • Review: • What are the three basic components of a satellite system? • What is an LNB? • What does it do? • How is an LNB powered? • What is polarity? • How does an LNB switch polarities?

  8. Receiving Equipment • ODU and LNB • Single Satellite ODU

  9. Receiving Equipment • MultiSwitches 3 X 4 6 X 8 4 X 8

  10. Basic System Overview (Multiswitch) • What is a multiswitch? • Standard 3 X 4 • Standard 4 X 4, 4 X 8 • High Frequency wide band 6 X 8 or 6 X 16

  11. Basic System Overview (Multiswitch) • How does a basic multiswitch work? NOTE:Older multiswitches may have 17 volts listed for LHCP.

  12. Diplexer • Diplexers are used to insert off air channels on the same cable as the satellite channels.

  13. IRD Switching Answer Tree

  14. Receiving Equipment • ODU and LNB • Multiple Satellite ODU
