Tracking + De-Icing All Part Of Hiltron's New SATCOM Unit For Telenor
Telenor has awarded a contract to Hiltron Communications for the supply of a 7.6 metre K-band transmit/receive antenna system with tracking and full reflector de-icing. The antenna will form part of the new BSS Earth Station at Nittedal Teleport near Oslo. With a staff of 50 operators and engineers, Nittedal is the largest of Telenor's teleports. The BSS Earth Station is being prepared for use with the Thor 6 satellite, which will have 36 active Ku-band transponders servicing audiences in Scandinavia as well as central and eastern Europe.
Hiltron's HCS3 is a modular system based on a 2U chassis, which can be equipped with single or dual AC or DC power supplies. The user interface comprises an optional touch-sensitive LCD display mounted on the front panel for local control. One of the two communication card slots (slot A1) is normally equipped with a network interface card module providing an Ethernet interface. The remaining 11 interface connection slots (A2 to A12) can be equipped with hot-pluggable card modules currently comprising: Monitoring, control and power supply for fibre optic modules; fibre optic N:1 switchover systems; LNB redundancy systems for C-band and Ku-band; HPA redundancy systems; Redundancy systems for DVB MPEG encoders/modulators/IRDs; Other applications for monitor and control.
