Starcom Universal Twin LNB, 2 Outputs, Ku-Band, Orange, 747502

The Starcom 747502 is a Universal Ku-band Twin LNB built for the standard Egyptian satellite installation on the 7° West cluster, where Nilesat 201, Nilesat 301 and Eutelsat 7 West A sit together. It covers the full universal input range of 10.70 to 12.75 GHz and converts it down to the 950 to 2150 MHz intermediate frequency your receiver expects, switching between the 9.75 GHz and 10.60 GHz local oscillators on the 22 kHz tone and between vertical and horizontal polarity on the 13 and 18 volt supply from the receiver. The two independent outputs let you run two separate receivers from one dish, or feed a single twin-tuner PVR so the household can record one channel while watching another. The die-cast RF chamber sits inside a UV-stabilised weatherproof shell with a sealed F-connector boot, so it holds up to Egyptian summer heat and to winter rain on an exposed roof. Keep the run from the dish to the receiver as short as practical, and never leave the F-connector uncovered — moisture in the connector is the most common cause of pixelation after the first winter.
