General information With the UFO compact signal processing system, Kathrein offers an economical and technically well-proven headend to process analogue and digital radio and TV programmes. Installation of the headend is extremely simple. The various module carriers available are dimensioned to enhold either four or twelve signal processing modules and are completely pre-mounted and cabled. The control unit is simply connected to the processing module to be tuned using the attached connection cable. The processing modules only have to be inserted, connected and fi nally programmed as required. The UFO compact system can be quickly set up and pre-programmed by the antenna specialist before delivery to the installation site. All standard tuning parameters can be set using the control unit (available separately).the power supply unit integrated in the module carriers provides all necessary supply voltages. Power supply to the individual modules is undertaken using fl exible power supply leads. LNB powering is carried out using a remote feed diplexer (please order separately).

System example with 48 modules The example system is valid for both a wall-mounted system or for one in a 19 cabinet Passive coupling of the module carriers with subsequent amplifi - cation using the launch amplifi er VOS 135/G ensures that the system offers highest S/N (antenna dimensioning dependant) and optimal CTB/CSO parameters FM 5 Antenna example: CAS 120/124, CN in ASTRA reception in Munich 20.7 db A 1 A 2 A 3 A 4 FM KAZ 11 2 Further external IF-splitting using the EBC 10/13/14 VWS 25002 supplies the LNB and compensates any cable and splitting losses KAZ 11 is used for voltage surge protection and to provide a defi ned earthing point.

(e.g. 8 x UFM 340 and 8 x UFO 391 the value given for the UFM 340 for 24 channels will be valid The output signal and noise levels of QPSK-QAM and COFDM-QAM transmodulators are 10 db (with 64 QAM) or 4 db (with 256 QAM) lower than the signal levels of analogue signals, and therefore only insignifi cantly influence the signal to noise ratio of the analogue signals 34
