KATHREIN products are durable, of top quality and construction, economical and always designed to the strictest regulations and international standards.
Digital Fernsehen Magazine Tests and Judges Whether KATHREIN's New Quattro LNB Can Be Included in the High Quality Products It Manufactures.
The new UAS 684 is a Universal Quattro LNB used to feed signals to Multi-Switches, Digital Headends or other satellite signal distribution options. The UAS 684 is the direct successor to the popular UAS 584. As usual, the LNB is delivered in a well-packed box, with a waterproof housing and detailed instructions. The scope of delivery also includes four F Connectors. It quickly becomes clear that the new power supply system can be used with all KATHREIN CAS antennas.
The LNB housing offers complete weather protection for the sensitive receiver and is also marked IP 54. The new LNB fromKATHREIN is also massively protected against interference. There are four outputs on the LNB, one output for the vertical plane in the low band, one for the vertical plane in the high band, another for the horizontal low band and finally one for the horizontal high band ( VL - VH - HL - HH ).
The instructions provided in the LNB packaging, not only contain installation tips and the azimuth/elevation table, they also contain examples for distribution systems. There are also instructions for installing the F-connectors.
Once again,The UAS 684 was installed on a KATHREIN CAS 80 antenna, to measure the received power. We placed the feed system in the middle, at the optimal focal point for exclusive reception of the Astra position at 19.2 degrees East. The results of the measurements across the entire spectrum speak for themselves. An average of 15.8 decibels of useful signal is obtained with the power supply system in this position.
This proves that the new power supply system is in no way inferior to the previous LNB from KATHREIN. An extreme test with very low radio packet symbol rates on the Eutelsat 16a satellite also demonstrates a very high stability of the new KATHREIN LNB.
The UAS 684 may also surprise you as only around 70 milliamperes are required for its power supply. This is half the current consumption. In addition, the device can handle a supply voltage between 9 and 19 Volts.
Conclusion: With the newQuattro LNB UAS 684, KATHREIN continues the success story of power supply systems. The excellent reception results, low power consumption and perfect construction leave no choice but to rate this device with the highest rating.
