Estimados Lectores,
La sabidura comn parece sugerir que el HDTV pertenece a la TV de pago, lo que puede signicar que se supone que nosotros pagamos por los contenidos que nos ofrece la alta denicin mientras que la SDTV sigue estando disponible libre al aire. Una mirada alrededor de los pases con canales de HD ya en marcha parece prestar el apoyo a esta armacin. Todava, si nosotros echamos una mirada ms ntima a algunos pases se alza la pregunta si todo lo que brilla realmente es oro, o en otros trminos: Nosotros realmente conseguimos HD slo porque un canal tenga la etiqueta de HD? No es cierto! En algunos pases cualquier transmisin digital est marcada con logo de HD, para que SD represente el analgico y HD para digital, y eso es as. El propio trmino de Alta Denicin est sujeto a una interpretacin muy liberal y en muchos casos est determinado por una red que est comercializando una seccin en lugar de por las especicaciones tcnicas globalmente establecidas. Algunas veces el futuro del HD se volver una extensin universal probablemente a cualquier nombre de canal. Eso signica algn un da nosotros slo recibiremos los canales de HDTV? Y quin tendr la potestad de decir lo que HD es y lo que no lo es? En la mayora de los canales actualmente disponibles en HD la transmisin simplemente es una copia re-escalada sus ofertas regulares. Pero cul es el punto cundo incluso su receptor HDTV caja es capaz de virtualmente re-escalar cualquier material desde una fuente a la resolucin de HD? Como espectadores, nosotros no podramos distinguir sobre si la imagen que nosotros vemos en nuestra pantalla es la imagen re-escalada por el proveedor o por nuestro receptor. Y si nosotros seguimos esta lnea de razonamiento, nosotros incluso podramos llegar a la conclusin de armar que todos los canales con un receptor de HDTV en casa son canales de alta denicin. Por lo menos nosotros nos hacemos creer esto. Entonces, cmo nosotros podemos averiguar si una transmisin de HDTV llamada HD es nativa en absoluto? La respuesta es simple: Nosotros no podemos! La nica manera de saber con seguridad es observar muy detenidamente con toda seguridad las caractersticas de la imagen que es un trabajo bastante desesperado para la media de espectadores. A propsito, alguien recuerda la farsa de alta delidad con respecto a las transmisiones de FM por radio hace algunas dcadas? Incluso la mayora de las radios porttiles venan con un logotipo de Alta Fidelidad colocado forma prominente, aunque el sonido que producan estaba lejos de ella. Ahora mismo nosotros experimentamos un dj-vu en lo que se reere a HDTV. Muy pronto, cada canal de TV, cada receptor y cada TV tendrn pegatinas con las que presumirn sobre ser HD. Independiente de lo que realmente estn mostrando. Es el nuevo mundo valiente de la HDTV, y todos nosotros nos acostumbraremos bien a l.

AB IPBox 9900HD Un receptor de satlite muy poder oso y multimedia con interminables carac tersticas
12-01/201 1
En una edicin anterior de TELE-satlite (08-09/2010) nosotros informamos sobre AB IPBox, un nuevo fabricante de receptores en Eslovaquia. Ahora nosotros tenemos en nuestras manos el diseo de su buque insignia, el AB IPBox 9900HD Plus. Este modelo de receptor viene con dos sintonizadores de DVB-S2. Existe el modelo 9900HD que tambin est disponible qu es idntico pero slo que tiene una opcin de segundo anador DVB-S, DVB-C (el cable) o DVB-T (terrestre). Todos los receptores de IPBox de estas caractersticas disponen de Enigma2 HD, una versin de cdigo fuente abierto en sistema operativo Linux. As que esta receptor de satlite es ecazmente una computadora especializada en recibir las seales de satlite. La cantidad de funciones y opciones disponibles es asombrosa, y la promesa de agregar funciones y nuevas caractersticas hacen que realmente sea excitante para aqullos que les gusta personalizar y reforzar su experiencia.

Nuestro modelo de prueba estaba en un caso de metal blanco que hace un cambio del negro usual o plata. El panel delantero estaba decorado con un elegante diseo oral que ciertamente lo hace destacar de la muchedumbre. Pienso que pudieran ser los crisantemos, pero no me j en ese detalle. Tambin est igualmente disponible una versin en muy bonito color negro. El panel delantero contiene los botones necesarios para el funcionamiento bsico debajo del visualizador. El visor es de hecho muy luminoso, bastante para ser una luz de color azul verdoso en una habitacin en penumbra. Despus de mirar la TV en un cuarto en penumbra con el receptor debajo de la TV, una de las primeras cosas yo empezara a buscar sera una aplicacin para oscurecer el visualizador. Puede hacerle distraerse. Otra alternativa, aunque no bastante tan elegante, es hacer lo que hice yo, poner una caja de DVD delante del visualizador!
Bajo la tapa delantera estn las dos CAM, son ranuras para tarjetas Conax y un puerto USB. Hay un otros conectores USB en la parte de atrs lo que hace que este bien preparado para la conexin ordenada de una unidad de disco duro externa y acompaando esto tambin est la opcin para conectar un disco duro SATA externo. Cada una de las dos entradas del sintonizador tiene una salida a travs correspondiente. Dispone de casi todos los posibles conectores de audio y video: Dos Scarts, salida de video compuesto y por componentes, HDMI, S/ PDIF y hay un moduladordemodulador de UHF para enviar la imagen a travs de los viejos cables de antena de TV. Tambin est presente una salida del 0/12V, no vista muy a menudo en los tiempos modernos pero muy til para aqullos que todava hacen uso de l. Como el receptor est ejecutando un sistema operativo ms poderoso que el usual, el encenderlo y conseguir una imagen en la pantalla toma un poco ms de tiempo. El proceso de encendido toma alrededor de dos minutos para completarse. EL primer inicio

incluye un asistente de ajustes de video que nos ayudar a encontrar el mejor ajuste para el brillo y contraste, y esto puede encontrarse en el men de ajustes si se necesita de nuevo en el futuro. El ajuste del satlite puede ser tan simple o complicado como se necesite. Los ajustes simples deben ser bastante para la mayora de las personas y deben contener todas las opciones para usar solo LNBs a travs de a los conmutadores DiSEqC, posicionadores y USALS. El modo avanzado normalmente no agrega muchas ms opciones que las que podran ser una gran ayuda a aqullos que disponen de una coleccin complicada de platos e interruptores. Si ni siquiera esto no es bastante, existe un men de Ajuste del Equipo de Satlite separado con aun ms opciones. Entrando en este men se precede por el mensaje No cambie un valor a menos que se sepa lo que usted est haciendo! y eso es ciertamente un consejo que debe escucharse.
La bsqueda de canales no es lo ms rpido. Una bsqueda de ASTRA 1 toma alrededor de ocho minutos. Los nuevos canales encontrados despus una bsqueda puede encontrarse en una seccin separada de la lista de canales que es una muy buena idea. La lista de canales es un poco diferente a la usual, y desapareci alguna duda inicial por mi parte despus de que yo tome el tiempo necesario para entender cmo trabaja todo y qu es lo mejor para hacer uso de l. Los canales pueden agruparse por satlite, proveedor, o por grupos de favoritos. La funcin del favoritos est ms avanzada que en la mayora de otros receptores. Dentro de la lista del favoritos, pueden agregarse grupos de canales a lo que el receptor se reere a como un ramillete . No debemos confundirnos con el uso usual en las condiciones del satlite para un grupo de canales en un transpondedor, ste podra ser un grupo de canales bajo un nombre editable por el usuario, como

msica, deportes, etc. De la lista de proveedores en la lista de canales, nosotros podramos agregar todos los canales de uno de ellos y esto aparecer entonces como otro ramillete de favoritos. Una vez su cerebro se ha puesto a punto en como funciona todos esto, es una manera hermosamente exible de hacer las cosas. Otra buena caracterstica es la adicin del programa actual listada junto al nombre del canal en la lista. Yo encontr el EPG incorporado que al principio era un poco menos de una revelacin. Estn inmediatamente disponibles dos modos, el primero con la informacin de slo el programa actual, con las teclas de echas que permiten el movimiento a las transmisiones del futuro de pgina en pgina. La multi EPG que compagina la lista de todos los canales, que se puede ltrar por el ramillete si es necesario, mostrando los programas actuales. De nuevo, las teclas de echa dan la lista en el futuro. Extra el tener el despliegue de estilo de reja tradicional, sobre todo al tener que planear las grabaciones alrededor de las limitaciones
de capacidad del sintonizador. Hasta que yo encontr un atajo en el telemando que me dio slo lo que yo estaba pidiendo. Aunque el atajo pulsando la tecla azul 2 veces, segn deca el manual, era para darme acceso a las transmisiones de radio por Internet, en cambio apareca un estilo de la rejilla de EPG !Perfecto, aunque ahora yo quiero tambin acceder a las transmisiones de radio por Internet perdidas! Desde el EPG, pueden agregarse los eventos al temporizador. Para agregar una grabacin es una cuestin simple, se pulsa la tecla verde y se memoriza. Estn disponibles ms opciones si se necesitan, en lugar de grabar, el receptor puede avisarle del comienzo del programa y no grabarlo. Una suma extra para nuestro tiempo de ahorro de energa es una opcin para ir a uno de los dos modos de ahorro de energa, el estado de espera o el estado de espera profundo, despus de que el evento se ha completado. Puede accederse a las grabaciones de la lista de las grabaciones accedida por el botn especializado de archivos , o reproducirse en el reproduc-

tor multimedia. Este ltimo tambin reproduce archivos multimedia en varios formatos incluso Xvid, DivX y MP3. Lo que todava se imagina tambin puede verse. El reproductor multimedia parece un poco difcil usar, pero la tecla de Ayuda en el telemando entra hbil aqu cuando aparece un recordatorio de qu se debe apretar en el telemando si es necesario. Un gran Gracias se le debe dar al IPBox por recordar algo que realmente debe ser una norma, pero se pasa por alto en tantos PVRs, el texto de la descripcin del programa del EPG se graba a lo largo de la grabacin. Los mens reducen la velocidad un poco cuando las gra1. Telnet 2. Una conexin de FTP a la caja usando Filezilla 3. Los Ajustes del temporizador va el interfaz Web. 4. Interfaz Web 5.

baciones estn en marcha, aparece un grco de un engranaje en la esquina de la pantalla para mostrar que la mquina est ocupada. La paciencia que a veces se requiere para esperar a que desaparezca esto, pero por lo menos cuando esto ha pasado mi paciencia era la nica cosa que se daaba y mis grabaciones estaban absolutamente intactas. La calidad de la imagen del receptor es excelente, incluso alguna muestra de archivos Xvid de mi archivo personal parecen mas buenas que las normales cuando se re-escala hacia arriba en una pantalla de HD. Pueden usarse discos externos y dispositivos de memoria, y reproducir los archivos multimedia desde ellos funciona muy bien como el de su interior. La copia de los archivos entre los dispositivos interiores y externos me defraud sin embargo. No podra encontrar una manera de hacerlo. As que un administrador de archivo o algo similar tambin
estara en mi lista de funciones esenciales. Esta funcin aparentemente perdida me dio prisa sin embargo para enganchar el IPBox a mi red de computadoras a travs del puerto de Ethernet. Ajustar esto es simplemente es igual que agregar una computadora, si se usa puede descubrirse por DHCP, una direccin y los ajusta automticamente. Si se necesitan los ajustes manuales, estn todos aqu y yo estoy orgulloso de decir que mi receptor se estaba comunicando con el mundo externo al primer esfuerzo, algo que yo no siempre puedo exigir de haber pasado con mi coleccin de computadoras. No mencionado en el manual, es posible usar Telnet y FTP para comunicarse con el receptor. Agradecidamente una bsqueda rpida de Internet me encontr el nombre de usuario predenido y su contrasea, por otra parte mis experimentos se habran retrasado rpidamente si hubiese tenido que hacer
prueba y error. A propsito, los nombres son: nombre usuario: root, password: ipbox. Con el uso de FTP, yo pude conseguir transferir las grabaciones hacia una computadora. Estn formateados en una estructura .ts normal, lo que signica que pueden manipularse y pueden revisarse usando un software de MPEG normal, hay sucientes programas gratuitos para hacer esto. Habra sido bueno tener una funcin fcil para copiar los archivos a un dispositivo externo, pero usando la red signica que si se requiere copiar, se haga todo sin ningn disco, memoria, cinta de video o cualquier otro dispositivo multimedia. Transralos a travs de la red, revselos y pngalos en el cdigo como requiera, e incluso los puede enva de nuevo hacia la mquina en formato Xvid para mirarlos de nuevo! Funciona muy bien. Con el receptor enganchado al mundo externo, es posible agregar y actualizar el software de la mquina. La manera ms fcil es va la funcin de la mquina en el men. Esto se conecta a un servidor en www. enigma.satupdate.net dnde estn disponibles los ajustes y funciones necesarios. Qued un poco defraudado de haba una muy pequea biblioteca de software disponible all en
el momento de esta revisin, esperanzadamente se pondr disponible ms software en el futuro. Haba sin embargo, un adorno con piedras preciosas para ser agregado all, la interfaz web. Instalado desde el servidor en muy poco tiempo, la interfaz web agrega otro nivel de comunicacin del mundo externo. El surf a la IP del receptor se dirige a un navegador web que trae una interfaz que encaja con el diseo del receptor. Puede verse aqu, la lista del canales y la EPG, y las grabaciones realizadas. Abriendo el puerto en su router, esto podra accederse entonces desde cualquier parte de Internet. As que la prxima vez que est en el trabajo o de esta y se olvid de grabar algo, ningn problema, slo consiga acceso a Internet y hgalo todo desde all! El programa se detalla aqu incluso proporciona un enlace al sitio Web del Banco de Datos de Pelculas en Internet (www.imdb.com) para cada programa. Pueden desde aqu descargarse las grabaciones en formato .ts, aun ms fcil que mi mtodo de FTP, y pueden mirarse la TV en directo y las grabaciones incluso a un reproductor multimedia. Yo tuve xito con todo el material grabado pero ninguno con las
transmisiones en vivo, no les puedo decir si esto era un problema en mi extremo o en el receptor. Como si todos esto ya no fuese bastante, aparece una ventana con un telemando virtual que puede usarse para acceder a todas las funciones del receptor. Despus de cada pulsacin de tecla, le aparece una copia de la pantalla (sin ninguna imagen de la TV) y se refresca en la pantalla. Esto signica que se puede tener el mando completo del receptor, desde cualquier parte si se tiene una conexin a Internet. Tambin se ha pensado en la seguridad, SSL y puede colocar si lo requiere una entrada con proteccin de contrasea. Toda esta funcionalidad y opciones me estn asombrando. Simplemente mire las opciones en la copia de pantalla del men de ajustes y conseguir una idea de lo que est disponible y puede cambiar en el IPBox para satisfacer sus propias preferencias. La mayor potencia excitante es por supuesto la naturaleza de la fuente abierta de Linux y la promesa de terceros de agregar y reforzar el software. Y aqu es donde el IPBox tendr xito o fallar. El manual hace un trabajo bastante bueno de resumir a todas las funcionalidades del un receptor
de satlite normal, y le dice cmo actualizar y agregar el software, pero los misterios y complejidades de Linux quedan intactos. El receptor atraer aqullos quienes quieran conseguir el ms de lo ms de l aprovechndose del poder de un sistema operativo total. As que lo que se necesitar hacer para tener el xito que el receptor merece es tener la disponibilidad adicional de software y la gua de cmo instalarlo y usarlo. El almacn del software accedido por el receptor est por ahora vaco, y en el momento de escribir estas lneas parece hay muy poca informacin especco para el IPBox en Internet en los sitios independientes. Pero stos son por supuesto das tempranos, la caja simplemente ha aparecido en el mercado. Otros receptores ya usan el software de Enigma2 y sus aplicaciones, ya tienen algn software para stos que est disponible en Internet. Quizs alguno de estos pueden usarse o pueden modicarse para el uso con el IPBox. De hecho, para otros receptores que usan un sistema de Linux, todas las modicaciones que estn disponibles para este sistema operativo tienen caractersticas extras agregadas. Un ejemplo que yo encontr mientras investi-
gaba contestaron a una crtica de satlite europeo y que yo he estado armando durante muchos aos, la indisponibilidad de un EPG de siete das para la BBC y otros canales en el ASTRA 2 de Sky y los propios receptores de Freesat han agregando simplemente esta funcionalidad. Como un espectador de BBC yo amara esto para ser utilizable por el IPBox. Yo no me preocupara casi intentando sin embargo instalar algo as que no era especco a este receptor o para la versin del sistema operativo. Quizs lo que nosotros necesitamos es una gua para tontos de cmo conseguir lo ms de lo ms de un IPBox basado en Enigma2 quizs debo conseguir un poco mas de aprendizaje, y empezar a usarlo! El manual del IPBox, y los sitios web de apoyo apuntan al usuario a los sitios Web y foros independientes y encontrar all el software y el soporte. As que permtame tener esperanza que estos sitios aparecern pronto para aqullos que le gustara experimentar y mejorar su receptor. Con tal poder disponible, todo lo que se necesita es un buen nivel de apoyo y disponibilidad de software para permitir a los usuarios poder usarlo a su completo potencial. El IPBox ser un verdadero desaador
a los receptores basados en Linux en el mercado. ste es un receptor poderoso con mens inteligentes para coincidir con sus gustos inteligentes, un juego insuperable de funciones y una muy buena calidad de la imagen. Las opciones del ajuste son lo ms comprensivos que usted podra desear. El inteligente sistema de favoritos junto con los tres modos de EPG (quizs el ms til est oculto detrs de un men de atajo separado) hacen de este una mquina que satisfar ambos usuarios de potencia y espectadores casuales. El conseguir conocerlo requiere un alto conocimiento que se aprende con el uso como ocurre con otros receptores, pero merece la pena bien el esfuerzo. Quizs la conclusin ms contundente es si despus de probar al receptor pot una semana o dos, se est acostumbrado a lo que puede y no puede hacer, Podra tener uno mio propio? Yo puedo decir honestamente que me gustara tener uno.
La Opinin del Experto

El sistema operativo de Linux abre la caja a interminables funciones. Una sosticada memoria de canales. El acceso al telemando va la Internet. El EPG se graba con la funcin PVR. Tres niveles de EPG.

Una segunda mirada al receptor HD Premium revela otra caracterstica: Puede conectarse un disco duro interno E-Sata para lograr la funcionalidad de PVR para resoluciones SD y HD. Nosotros evidentemente usamos esta opcin y no descubrimos ningn fallo. La capacidad de grabacin mxima es dos horas. Adems, es posible tambin con esta caja mirar contenidos de Internet como YouTube, por ejemplo.

Una palabra de cautela: Cuando nosotros conectamos el receptor por primera vez la recepcin de ISDB-T no estaba activa. Como resultado, el sintonizador terrestre se habra soltado durante el transporte y necesitaba ser puesto de nuevo rmemente en su lugar. Nosotros no hemos encontrado ningn problema desde entonces. Con el receptor Premium HD, AZBox presenta a una

Receptor de IPTV
Jiuzhou DTP8300
El receptor para la Televisin de Internet
Jiuz hou DTP830 0 El receptor de IPT V equ ipado con una tecnologa de la cima
12-01/201 1
A primera vista el DTP8300 de Jiuzhou simplemente parece como un receptor normal para la recepcin de satlite, cable o terrestre. Slo mide 230x160x39 mm que lo hace ideal para el ordenado armario del saln. La elegante caja es de color negro y luce dos LEDs en el panel delantero para indicar el modo del estado actual. El fabricante ha escogido hacerlo sin un LCD o visor de segmentos, pero ha optado en cambio por un interruptor de on/off en la esquina izquierda y un interfaz USB 2.0 en la esquina derecha.
Si se le da la vuelta al receptor y mira las opciones de conexin en el panel de la parte de atrs ver claramente que ste es receptor que no recibe las seales del satlite, cable o antena terrestre. Todo lo que nosotros encontramos es un conector RJ45 Ethernet en lo que se reere a la seal de entrada. Hay por supuesto, el rango usual
de enchufes para HDMI, tres conectores RCA para YUV, tres conectores RCA ms para el audio estreo y CVBS, una salida de S/PDIF ptica, el enchufe del S-video y una segunda interfaz de USB. Dispone del benecio agregado de un interruptor de potencia mecnico que es una valiosa caracterstica en este tiempo. El telemando que viene

con el receptor es grande en su primera impresin, tiene todas las teclas dentro del fcil alcance, ofrece simplemente la regeneracin requerida, y est claramente etiquetado. Si tenemos que pensar en algo que que deben mejorar en este receptor es el telemando de IR que exige a los usuarios que lo apunten a una rea muy pequea en la caja, por otra parte se tendr que apretar la tecla deseada varias veces antes de que su orden realmente se reciba al otro extremo. Nosotros nos enfocaremos en las peculiaridades y caractersticas del DTP8300 en un momento, pero primero merece la pena ver las decisivas diferencias entre la TV recibida por una antena, cable o satlite y la IPTV. Si un receptor usa la seal digital de la antena de satlite,
terrestre o cable, el hardware del receptor tiene que cuidarse de todos los aspectos del proceso de la seal. Esto no slo involucra la recepcin, la conversin, el desencriptado (si fuera requerido) y nalmente la salida de las seales recibidas con el ujo de datos de DVB, sino que tambin la direccin del canal, procesado de los datos de EPG y los mensajes de OSD creados para la interaccin del usuario. Por el contraste, un receptor de IPTV es totalmente una historia diferente. Simplemente imagine, es un tipo de navegador de web que puede publicar audio y video. No tiene que hacer una bsqueda de canales, no tiene ningn sistema de OSD (o slo uno muy bsico) y no hay ninguna necesidad de manejar, procesar, guardar, y organizar los canales. Su tarea principal es mostrar los contenidos de la TV

que se entrega como los datos pre-empaquetados. Toda la tecnologa requerida para recibir y procesar los canales, para crear el OSD y para generar los contenidos se localiza al extremo del proveedor del sistema de IPTV. All, el llamado middleware (un trmino absolutamente de nuevo que es como un tipo de servidor de web) se cuida de preparar las listas de los canales que usan elementos de diseo especcos del proveedor, de proporcionar el contenido de video en demanda (VOD) y de crear la interfaz de
usuario completa del receptor de IPTV. Cuando se enciende, el receptor de IPTV se conecta al middleware va el puerto de Ethernet y se reciben los contenidos a visualizar emitidos por el middleware. A propsito, el middleware tambin es responsable para establecer una conexin a la entrada de DVB-IP para la recepcin de la TV. Los proveedores mantienen la direccin IP y los puertos de canales individuales dentro del IPTV se conectan una red de computadoras en el middleware.

Si un usuario ahora selecciona un canal especco en la lista de canales que es creada y proporcionada por el middleware, el receptor de IPTV obtiene las direcciones IP exactas y puerto del canal seleccionado y a la salida se muestra el ujo de video correspondiente. Ahora la segunda diferencia ms importante entre la recepcin del satlite y la recepcin de IPTV se pone evidente. Si se reciben los canales directamente va el satlite, esto signica que todo el contenido est disponible en el extremo receptor (ya que se transmite todo), mientras que en la recepcin IPTV solo est disponible el contenido del canal que fue pedido especcamente en cada momento. Claro que todos los contenidos estn disponibles en la parte del proveedor, esperando ser pedidos, pero todava los datos slo empiezan a uir hacia el usuario una vez llama al contenido especco. Cada cliente, por as decirlo, es servido individualmente y aparte de los canales normales de radio y TV, el video en demanda, el cambio de tiempo o PVR pueden ser ofrecidos por el proveedor sin que el cliente tenga que comprar un nuevo hardware. Hablando metafricamente, la recepcin de la transmisin va el satlite, cable o la transmisin terrestre es como una ola gigante de contenidos que se extiende al mismo tiempo a todos los receptores, mientras que en una red IPTV a cada subscriptor separadamente se le proporciona especcamente los contenidos que pidieron de una manera personalizada. No slo es que cada cliente de IPTV es servido individualmente, cada red de IPTV tambin se caracteriza por una estructuracin individual, dependiendo de los requisitos del proveedor. En la teora, un proveedor de IPTV puede seleccionar libremente la direccin IP que l quiere usar para su red, as como los multicasts usados para la distribucin de la TV y de la radio y los puertos.
Esto signica a su vez que los receptores para los usuarios nales necesita ser exibles para encajar en las redes de IPTV existentes. Con este n, y solo con este n, el DTP8300 est provisto con un men de ajustes especializado que puede llamarse con pequeo botn en el telemando. Por defecto est protegido con una clave PIN y nosotros sugerimos que los usuarios nales en general no modiquen todos estos ajustes. El men est dividido en seis artculos, con los Ajustes Bsicos y los Ajustes Extendidas que son los de ms inters. En los Ajustes Bsicos se necesita decirle a su caja cmo se debe conectar a la red de su proveedor de IPTV. El receptor o puede pedir una direccin de IP de su servidor de DHCP o se le puede asignar una direccin IP esttica. If you subscribe to an IPTV provider that uses DSL for distributing their content you may also set up a connection to the IPTV network via PPPoE. Una vez se han colocado los parmetros de red adicionales como el gateway y el servidor de DNS o tambin pueden ser recibidos del servidor de DHCP, entonces el receptor de IPTV necesita saber la direccin exacta del middleware. Para nuestra prueba nosotros escogimos usar el middleware predenido proporcionado por Jiuzhou que nosotros habamos instalado en nuestro PC normal del centro de pruebas con Windows que usa Microsoft IIS. Mientras congurbamos la conexin de la red del receptor tuvimos una sorpresa inesperada pero muy buena, que no slo era posible una conexin va Ethernet, sino que tambin va WLAN. Si se preere ir inalmbrico todo lo que se necesita es un adaptador compatible RT73 WLAN de USB para conectarlo en uno de los puertos de USB, una vez es descubierto por el sistema, puede congurarse fcilmente directamente en la caja. Ahora que se han completado todos los ajustes en el

caracterstica de auto prueba y una opcin para restaurar los ajustes de fbrica. Usando un navegador de web o una memoria USB tambin es posible actualizar el sistema operativo del receptor, un artculo del men especializado est disponible facilitar ese procedimiento. Una vez se seleccionan todos los ajustes la caja necesita ser el reiniciada para que conecte al middleware a travs de la red y muestre el men principal generado por el middleware del proveedor. Usando el propio middleware de Jiuzhou, se demuestran algunas de las caractersticas que un proveedor de IPTV puede llevar a cabo con su middleware interno y en combinacin con el DTP8300. Como se puede ver en las capturas de pantallas el men principal est dividido en cuatro reas mayores: La barra de arriba corresponde a las teclas de la funcin codicadas por colores en el telemando y as est absolutamente preparado para el acceso directo a la TV en vivo, video en demanda o la visin con desplazamiento en el tiempo. El rea izquierda tiene caractersticas que frecuentemente se usan un poco menos, como juegos o el contenidos de VOD adicionales. En la ventana a la derecha de esa seccin se inserta el video en vivo del canal actualmente seleccionado, mientras que en la seccin del fondo de la pantalla hay sitio para colocar anuncios de informacin de nuevos VOD colocados por el proveedor u otra para los subscriptores. En nuestro escenario de prueba nosotros nos enganchamos al propio middleware de Jiuzhou con la entrada de DVB-IP que nosotros habamos instalado en nuestro laboratorio de prueba y entonces habamos entrado las direcciones del multicast correspondientes como se requeran. Esto nos dejo con uno de nuestro canales de enlace, el transpondedor de MBC del NILESAT a 7 Oeste,
receptor de IPTV se guardan todos los datos y se reinicia para establecer una conexin directa al middleware. Mientras un usuario medio es todo lo que debe hacer con el receptor, nosotros no podramos terminar sin darle una mirada a los Ajustes Extendidos para vericarlos con nuestro sistema de prueba. Actualmente los nicos idiomas disponibles en el men son ingls y chino, pero esto slo se reere al Men Principal y un par de OSD que se insertan en el receptor. Durante el uso diario el middleware del proveedor de IPTV genera todos los artculos de OSD sin embargo y puede disearse segn las especicaciones del proveedor. En los Ajustes de Video el usuario puede seleccionar el formato de la salida de la seal a la TV, con 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p y 1080i , puede estar disponible en las proporciones de aspecto 4:3 y 16:9, as como el PAL, NTSC o SECAM. Finalmente, el men de Ajustes Extendidos puede usarse para cambiar el cdigo PIN que restringe el acceso al men de los Ajustes y para activar un protocolo del histrico que se enva a un servidor de FTP. De esta manera los proveedores pueden vericar permanentemente si existe cualquier mensaje de error creado por el receptor de IPTV o cualquier problema ha ocurrido. Gracias a estos datos que estn disponible al proveedor le es posible ofrecer un servicio al cliente hecho a medida si fuera menester. Complementando las opciones de la conguracin del men de Ajustes hay una apreciacin global del sistema, una

estando totalmente disponible en la caja de IPTV todo el tiempo. Nosotros nos impresionamos de lo bien que iba con la velocidad de muestreo de esta pequea aseada caja que simplemente tom menos de un segundo en cambiar entre los ujos individuales de los canales solicitados de la TV. Siempre que aparezcan nuevos canales en el DTP8300 se despliega informacin de EPG del evento seleccionado, si esta caractersticas se proporciona por el middleware. El cmo se usan ciertas teclas adicionales en el telemando y a qu caractersticas se acceden depende grandemente de nuevo del middleware del proveedor. Si el desplazamiento en el tiempo est disponible, entonces simplemente puede controlarse como con cualquier otro receptor y no hay ninguna necesidad por el usuario de acostumbrarse a un nuevo concepto. Las caractersticas compatibles agregadas por el IPTV como las noticias, las actualizaciones meteorolgicas o ofertas actuales para los subscriptores pueden asignarse a teclas de funcin diferentes en el telemando. Hay una opcin incluso para cambiar la entrada de nmero a carcter para que se pueda usar el telemando como un pequeo teclado para introducir textos, como lo realizara con su telfono mvil. Hasta donde la compatibilidad tcnica est interesada, el Jiuzhou DTP8300 soporta MPEG-4/H264 as como video de Windows Media 9. El navegador incorporado se ocupa de
HTML 4.0, Javascript 1.5 y la Mquina Virtual de Java. Datos entregados por el middleware se muestran con una resolucin de Color de 32bit Verdaderos. El decodicador audio es capaz de procesar WMA-9, MPEG Capa 1, 2 y 3 (MP3), AAC LC, AAC LC+ SBR Nivel 2 as como AAC+ Level 2.
Ajustes de IP
Las proporciones de muestreo van de 22500, 44100 y 48000Hz y el receptor tiene una memoria de 128 MB incorporada, 192 MB SDRAM y una EEPROM de 8K. En una palabra, nosotros nos impresionamos con el Jiuzhou DTP8300 durante nuestra prueba. En el mercado de IPTV no depende normalmente del usuario nal para escoger el receptor es por qu el DTP8300 se escoger principalmente por los proveedores de IPTV. Ellos terminaran con una caja que puede llevar a cabo todo el middleware ofrecido y por consiguiente es una herramienta perfecta por ofrecer la programacin a los subscriptores. A usuarios nales que parecen quedarse independientes del hardware proporcionado por el proveedor les gustar incluso el Jiuzhou DTP8300 pues ofrece todas las funciones necesarias, es fcil usar, y no toma mucho espacio en el armario del saln.

HDTV Receiver with HD+ Standard
Jaeger HD+ 2011
The German Receiver with a Plus
Jaeger HD+ 2011 Exc ellent Family Frie ndly HDT V Rec eiver Optimized for the HD+ Transmission Standard in Ger many
12-01/201 1
To regular readers of TELE-satellite the company Doebis from Mndersbach in Germany might ring a bell. It is a wholesale dealer offering an extensive product range combined with excellent customer service, and it is a business that readily endorses cutting-edge technology for the benet its customers. Now Doebis has taken another leap and is launching its own line of receivers, with the rst offspring jumping right in the middle of a market niche that has recently appeared in the German market. There, commercial networks have teamed up to use the new HD+ standard which allows reception of the HD versions of these commercial stations next to all other free-to-air DVB-S and DVB-S2 channels. Doebis distributes the new set-top box under the trade name Jaeger.
Channels using the HD+ standard are currently only of interest to a Germanspeaking audience, as HD+ smartcards to unlock these channels are only available in Germany at this stage. The Jaeger HD+ 2010 therefore exclusively has the German market in mind for time being. HD+ channels are broadcast via ASTRA 19.2 East. We will deal with every nook and cranny of the new receiver in a moment, but let us rst nd out what this talk about HD+ really is all about: In a global perspective, Germany had long been a dark spot on the HDTV map. While most of Asia, North America, Australia and also a number
of European countries had introduced high-denition television some time ago, Germany seemed to be perfectly content with its SDTV offering for a very long time. Apart from pay TV provider Sky and an unsuccessful attempt at HDTV by some commercial channels not much happened with regard to HD content. Is there a particular reason for this development, or should we rather say: lack of development? For decades, German viewers have been blessed with a large number of free-to-air commercial channels, which offered all sorts of content next to the large public broadcasting networks, which can also be
received free-to-air. Viewers have come to expect and demand high-quality programming, including all the latest blockbuster movies, TV dramas and sitcoms, plus elaborate homemade content free of charge. Or almost free of charge, if you consider the licence fee that every Germany household with a TV set has to pay. Various and sometimes lengthy advertising breaks on commercial stations are the trade-in, which Germans had and have to accept in return for channel and content variety. For all the reasons stated above pay TV was off to a very bad start in Germany and is still struggling to become
nancially viable. Just think about it: Would you be willing to pay for subscription TV if the sheer number of channels coming in at no cost satises almost all of your viewing requirements? Up until the invention of the PVR (personal video recorder), both broadcasters and viewers seemed content with this arrangement, and commercial stations were able to provide decent programming thanks to a steady ow of advertising revenue. All this began to slowly erode due to time-shift viewing and hard-disk recording, with the added benet of skipping commercial breaks. What

pushed the viewing pleasure of millions to new heights was becoming a major concern for commercial broadcasters at least if one follows their line of reasoning. After all, not many would watch ads if these can be skipped with the touch of a button, would they? A few months ago the major public broadcasting networks in Germany nally launched HDTV versions of their main channels and therefore placed the ball in their commercial competitors court to lift their game as well. With their reliance on advertising money, however, commercial providers used a completely different approach which was supposed to restrict ad skipping right from the start. Satellite operator SES readily jumped on board and developed a dedicated transmission concept with the name HD+ platform. The rst step in the new HD+ standard was to offer the new HD channels with encryption only, which is the only way of controlling who can watch what. SES ASTRA selected Nagravision 3 as the encryption system of choice. The next step that followed went even further: HD+ allows content providers to not only dene which encrypted events can be watched and recorded, but also how, when and for how long such content is available. The new HD+ standard provides broadcasters with the option of restricting time-shift viewing for certain content, or to block this feature at large. This means that viewers are still able to record content and watch it at a later stage, but it is not possible to fast forward through commercial breaks. Broadcasters are also in a position to add a use by date to content, so to speak. Such recorded content cannot be played back once that date has passed. To make sure all of these
wishes by broadcasters are actually fullled, PVRs that are compatible with HD+ always record content with encryption in place. This way it is not possible to simply copy les from the internal or external HDD and watch them on a PC or save them onto a DVD, for example. If you do want to receive the HD variants of Germanys major commercial networks you therefore need a receiver that is compatible with HD+ and which features either a built-in smartcard reader or a CI with HD+ functionality plus a valid HD+ smartcard, of course. All receivers and CI modules available so far have not been compatible with the HD+ standard or at least required a software update from the manufacturer to add that feature with all its integrated control mechanisms. Only if all HD+ specications and restrictions are met is it possible to watch HD+ content. We received the Jaeger H+ 2011 receiver complete with an activated HD+ smartcard so that we could easily receive the HD channels of Germanys largest commercial channels. To be precise, we were able to mostly receive upscaled versions of their standard denition offerings, which is what they currently provide. The six networks Sat.1, ProSieben, Vox, Kabel2, RTL and Sport1 can be received in high denition free of charge for one year. After the rst year access can be renewed for another year by paying a fee which currently amounts to EUR 50. But lets come back to our receiver test report now. The black housing of the Jaeger HD+ 2011 is very stylish in appearance and will smoothly blend into most living room settings. The front panel sports a multi-digit segment display, with three buttons to the left for controlling the receivers main functions

Channel list entries 0 to 99 can be freely arranged
without a remote control. To the right of the central display a HD+ smartcard can be inserted into the built-in card reader. There are no additional CI slots available. The back panel of the receiver is very well equipped with all connection options youre ever likely to require. It sports the standard satellite IF input with loopedthrough output, HDMI, optical audio out as well as a USB 2.0 interface. The remote control that comes with the box deserves special praise, as it sits conveniently in your hand and comes with easy to nd buttons. The operating manual is of a similarly high standard, is very comprehensive and comes with helpful illustrations. We are condent the manual will answer all the questions you may have with regard to operating the Jaeger HD+ 2011. We hugely appreciated the fact that a whole chapter of the manual is dedicated to mounting and installing the antenna. This way new users do not only learn how their new receiver works, but also receive some valuable tips and hints for perfectly setting up their antenna. When the receiver is turned on for the rst time it immediately switches to update mode and checks the following: (a) Do signals from ASTRA 19.2 East come in through the satellite IF input socket? (b) Is a software update available? (c) Is the pre-stored channel list still up-to-date for German viewers? In case new software or an updated channel list are available these are downloaded over the air automatically to bring the receiver up to date. This way, viewers in Germany can rest assured their receiver will always keep up with any changes or improvements and that all pre-stored
channels can actually shown on screen.

Channel list editing
We should elaborate a little on this new receivers channel list: Contrary to what we are used to from regular receivers, the HD+ platform of provider SES ASTRA brings viewers the added benet of looking for new channels every time the receiver is turned on. To this end, HD+ has come up with its own channel list setup that looks like this: TV channels 100 to 2,000 and radio channels 100 to 500 are reserved for the automatic ASTRA 19.2 East HD+ channel list for Germany, while channels 1 through 99 can be set according to customer preferences. By default, Doebis ships the Jaeger HD+ 2011 with pre-set channels from 1 to 57 which include all German free-to-air channels as well as obviously all HDTV channels currently available from ASTRA at 19.2 East (see chart). The channel list begins with ARD HD and ZDF HD (the two major nationwide public broadcasting channels in Germany), followed by the six HD+ channels and the remaining German channels. In addition, international channels such as Sky News, CNN and CNBC are also found on the default channel list. If required, the list can be rearranged and edited according to personal preferences, and since channels 1 through 99 are the customers domain they will never be overwritten if an automatic channel update takes place. Its a different story for the pre-set channels beginning with 100. They are arranged in the following fashion and cannot be moved, deleted or otherwise rearranged, as they are part of the HD+ channel list: 100-130: ARD (public broadcaster) and regional public channels.

ORF (OE1, all regional versions of OE2, OE3, FM4) Every time a new German language channel is launched on ASTRA 19.2 East it will be added to the HD+ channel list by provider SES Astra and will be available with the following automatic channel list update. The Jaeger HD+ 2011 will display it accordingly, and since the list is segmented according to provider categories it will t in perfectly. If so desired by a user, any channel in the pre-set list can be copied into the user list from 1 to 99. Talk about a smart solution! Incidentally, the channel list features more than meets the eye at rst sight. Many channels are not specically included in the list, but are still available if you know how to nd them. If you use the search mode to nd all channels starting with Kabel 1, for example, the results will also show Kabel 1 Austria on channel 414, which can then be selected and watched. The same is true for Sat.1 Austria, RTL Austria, and so on. If you think this is somewhat unusual then the answer lies in the HD+ concept: As soon as HD+ will also be offered on the Austrian market the receivers sold there will be pre-programmed to show the Austrian versions of those channels, rather than the Germany versions. The Jaeger HD+ 2011 offers a dedicated menu for channel management, which shows all available entries from 1 to 99 in the right screen section and the complete channel list on the left section. Thanks to this convenient layout channels can easily be added from the overall list to the customised list. In addition, a total of ten favourites lists can be lled to your hearts content and add much to the overall enjoyment this receiver provides. All channel entries above 2,000 (TV) and 500 (radio) 43

It comes with a factory-installed list of all transponders of the 28 most frequently received European satellites. It goes without saying that this list can be edited manually and that new transponders can be added as required. We did, on the other had, somewhat regret that the Jaeger HD+ 2011 only offers tone burst and DiSEqC 1.0 for up to four satellites, and DiSEqC 1.2 for motorised antennas. Unfortunately, the hugely convenient USALS protocol and DiSEqC 1.1 for up to 16 satellites are not available. On a positive note, we appreciated the fact that the LOF can be determined individually for each satellite entry based on a number of pre-set options or with manual setting. This makes the Jaeger box perfectly suitable for C band reception as well. Thanks to manual transponder search it is possible to look for signals on a specied frequency only and to edit the pre-set transponder list. Any new frequencies can be added without much ado and a touch of a button is all it takes to delete any discontinued transponder entries.
Clearly arranged info bar
In our test the Jaeger HD+ 2011 took more than 25 minutes for a full scan across all HOTBIRD 13 East bands, which is not exactly an Olympic achievement. Then again, most users will only ever use the HD+ channel list which is kept up-to-date and very accurate anyway. Like all other receivers we test the Jaeger box, too, had to prove its worth with regard to very week signals. We used BADR at 26 East for that benchmark test and found that the integrated DVB-S/ S2 tuner did a remarkably good job. The same was true for signals with a very low symbol rate (like the ones from TURKSAT 42 East at our location), which were processed awlessly as well. It only took a moment before the 11,742 V frequency was locked in with a symbol rate of only 2,965 ks/s. All entries of the individual channel list (2,000 and above for TV, 500 and above for radio) can be deleted, moved or marked for skipping as required. Entries on the HD+ list, on the other hand, can only be marked for skipping without any other editing options. Optional PIN protection is available for all channels if you feel some channels are not appropriate for children or minors living in your household. Altogether the channel list consists of 5,000 entries, and even if we reduce that number by the channels that are pre-dened through HD+ that will still leave you with 2,700 entries to ll. In Systems Settings which is the third major menu item next to Channel Search and Channel List Editing users can customise their newly acquired box according to personal preferences. Even though the new Jaeger HD+ 2011 is specically targeted to the German market the OSD languages to choose from are German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, Turkish, Russian, Polish and

If you prefer an automatic search as most will do the Jaeger HD+ 2011 can be set for network search mode or restricted to free-to-air channels only. This is particularly useful as all encrypted channels will nd their way into the automatic HD+ channel list anyway and there are no other decryption options (such as an additional CI slot) available anyway. If so desired, an automatic search can be dened to cover TV, radio, or both.

Dutch. At the same you may also dene your preferred audio track languages in case a channel broadcasts more than one. When you want to tell the receiver which time zone you are in you need not know your local difference to GMT but rather select your zone from a list of well-known European cities. Continuing with audio/video settings, the receiver can be told which signal resolution your TV panel prefers so that you always get the best quality on screen. We should emphasise the fact that the Jaeger HD+ 2011 already supports 1080p, which means it is t for the future of satellite television even today. Obviously 1080i, 720p, 576p, 576i as well 480p and 480i can chosen as well. The receiver automatically detects the colour standard of a received channel and adjusts the output signal accordingly. No matter whether you have a 4:3 or 16:9 TV set, the box will deal it with it, and you may dene the way 16:9 broadcasts are displayed on a 4:3 set. Thanks to the integrated scart euroconnector RGB and CVBS are available for analog signal output and a separate menu item lets you add or edit up to 50 timer entries. Once all basic parameters are set pressing the Exit button will bring you to the rst receivable channel on the list. Every time a new channel is selected the Jaeger HD+ 2011 inserts an info bar on the bottom of the screen which includes date, time and information on the current and next event, if this information is provided. There are icons indicating encryption and the availability of subtitles, audio tracks as well as teletext. Press the OK button and the clearly arranged channel list will pop up, with ten channel entries per page. Using the green and yellow function keys you may select individual satellite entries, while the Text button opens up a search mask which you can use nd that particular channel youre looking for. The Favourite button accesses up to ten favourites lists which you can arrange in any fashion you like. The Jaeger HD+ 2011 zapping speed is approximately one second for free-to-air SDTV channels. Switching to HDTV or encrypted channels takes slightly longer. We were truly impressed with the video performance of this receiver,

even though most material on HD+ channels currently is upscaled SD content. Every time native HD is broadcasts your eyes are virtually glued to the screen watching TV has never been more brilliant! If youre interested in nding out more about the event youre watching or even want to check whats on TV later at night or the next day the EPG button will become your best friend. Press it once for extended information about the currently showing event and press it again to see a preview of the selected channel for up to seven days. If you press the EPG button yet again a preview schedule of ve channels at a time appears on screen. In next to no time can you then nd out what your favourite channels will show in primetime, or when the next episode of that crime drama is on. No matter which EPG mode youre in, if you come across an event thats not to miss you can easily create a timer entry by simply pressing the blue button. This is a particularly smart feature considering that an external HDD can be hooked up to the Jaeger HD+ 2011 thanks to the USB 2.0 interface. If you make use of that option youre not only able to record content, but also use the timeshift viewing feature at least for free-to-air channels. So next
time your mother-in-law calls simply press Pause and pick up the phone that way youll both be happy and you can continue watching whenever you feel like. As mentioned before, this feature is not available for channels on the HD+ platform. By and large, all PVR features of the new Jaeger receiver are cleverly implemented and easy to use. The box boasts a single tuner only, which is why it is not possible to watch a channel from a different transponder while a recording takes place. If the recording is made from an encrypted HD+ channel it is not possible to watch a different channel at all, just as is it not possible to make two recordings at the same time. A previously stored event, however, can be played back at any time during recording. The Movie button on the remote control or the corresponding menu item in the on-screen display brings you to the content of the external HDD. Here again, the display sports a clever layout, is more or less self-explanatory and also provides details such as recording date, length and originating channel for each recording. There is even an integrated picture viewer for presenting photos of your journey around the world or any other event in your life. You and your guests
may make use of the formatting feature which can be accessed through a dedicated menu item. You may also have the receiver manually check for new software or channel lists, even though this is done every time you power up the box anyway. The current channel list can be saved onto any external USB storage medium for back-up purposes and to provide a safety net in case you inadvertently delete a channel or make a mess out of your list. If video games is what youre after then prepare yourself for a minor disappointment there are none. You may, however, use the built-in teletext decoder to read the news during commercial breaks, for example, which is much more worthwhile anyway. The teletext display only covers about half the screen so you can always keep an eye on the current channel in order not to miss a thing. Finally, there was another nice surprise waiting for us: Power consumption of the Jaeger HD+ 2011 in standby is extremely low. The manufacturer species 1 W, and our own measurement yielded an even lower 0.8 W! We like
that because in whats good for the environment is just as good for your wallet. In conclusion we can say that the Jaeger HD+ 2011 fullled all our expectations. Were talking about a HDTV satellite receiver the whole family will like, that will t into any lounge room surroundings, and that offers all the features an average family will ever want. With its 1080p HDMI output it is well ahead of many competitors and ready for the future of high-denition satellite television. The box is characterised by smart user-interaction and will be understood by the technically challenged as well. HD+ compatibility allows reception of the HDTV variants of Germanys major commercial networks and the built-in PVR functions work awlessly. It has to be said, however, that users might require some time before they will get used to all HD+ restrictions. In our test, for example, we were not able to skip commercial breaks on HD+ channels but then again, that is precisely why HD+ was developed in the rst place. Nonetheless, the overall impression of the Jaeger HD+2011 is unreservedly positive.

TENOW TBS 6981 DVB -S/S2 DUAL TUN La tarjeta de PC con ER PVR y todas las caracterstic as que nec esitarn. Ideal tam alguna vez se bin para cazadores de enlaces.
Tarjeta de PC Con la Funcin de Sintonizador Dual
Las tarjetas de DVB-S/S2 estn ganando en la popularidad todo el tiempo, pero a las mismas personas tambin estn locas por la funcin de PVR de muchos receptores de satlite convencionales. Despus de todo, nada quita la posibilidad de grabar un evento mientras se est mirando otro al mismo tiempo. Hay una manera de lograr este benecio con una tarjeta de PC? Si se tiene un receptor de PVR y puede grabar un canal y mirar otro diferente simultneamente entonces se necesita un receptor con dos sintonizadores y dos entradas de IF. En lo que se reere a las tarjetas de PC, esto es muy raro y por eso Tenow alegremente abre boquete con su nueva TBS 6981.
La tarjeta Tenow PCI-E es compatible DVB-S y DVB-S2 y ofrece que dos entradas de satlite de DVB-S/S2 para SDTV y HDTV. Aparte de la tarjeta de PC TBS 6981 (conveniente para

ranuras PCI-E versin 1.0a y 1.1) se consigue un receptor infrarrojo, un telemando, un CD de software y un cable de alimentacin para poder conectar la tarjeta a una salida de la fuente de alimentacin en formato IDE del PC. En la mayora de los casos la alimentacin proporcionada por la ranura PCI-E ser suciente, pero si se conecta un motor de DiSEqC u otras tarjetas grcas este conector auxiliar le ser bastante til.
Instalar la tarjeta no requiere un grado de ingeniera y gracias a su tamao compacto encajar incluso en los dispositivos con el espacio restringido. Una vez se conectan las dos entradas del sintonizador se conectan al cable de entrada de sealada todo lo que se necesita hacer para empezar es conectar el receptor de IR al enchufe al lado de las entradas IF. El telemando que viene con la tarjeta se asienta muy bien en su mano y permite controlar la TBS 6981 sin tener que levantarse de su sof en el saln de descanso. El manual est disponible en el CD mini en el formato de PDF. Tenow lista las especicaciones siguientes para la recepcin de DVB-S: Intel Pentium III 1 GHz con 256MB RAM y una tarjeta grca con 16MB RAM. Si lo que quiere recibir es seales de DVB-S2 , se necesita asegurar de proporcionarle por lo menos un Intel Pentium IV con procesador de 3 GHz 1GB RAM y una tarjeta de los grcos con un mnimo de 64 MB de RAM. Tenow hizo la tarjeta compatible a Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 y el sistemas operativo de Linux, el ltimo incluso para el ltimo kernel de Linux. Ahora que nosotros habamos instalado la tarjeta en nuestro PC de prueba y habamos conectado que todo los cables requeridos nosotros procedimos con la instalacin del controlador. Poco despus de insertar el CD, se inicia un asistente que se abre en la pantalla con todas las opciones disponibles. Un solo clic del ratn es todo lo que hay que hacer para empezar instalacin del controlador y despus de un corto tiempo Windows muetsra un mensaje que declara que se ha descubierto un nuevo hardware y est listo para el uso. Para todos los entusiastas de Linux: Tenow igualmente proporciona los controladores de Linux y hace la tarjeta totalmente compatible al ltimo kernel de Linux. Como aplicacin de software Tenow proporciona su propia aplicacin de presentacin TBSViewer, pero tambin ofrece el software DVB Dream en el CD como una alternativa. Nosotros debemos mencionar en esta fase que la tarjeta trabaj enteramente tambin con la muy popular aplicacin ProgDVB y el fabricante proporciona toda la conguracin necesaria en un archivo incluido en el CD. Soporta tambin Windows Media Center (incluido con Windows 7, por ejemplo). Depende bsicamente del usuario nal que el software se aparee con la tarjeta de Tenow, y ste es uno de los benecios mayores de las soluciones en tarjeta PC ya que como en el contrario de los receptores normales, en la mayora de los casos, slo pueden usarse con el rmware proporcionado por el fabricante. Con el propsito de este informe de prueba, sin embargo, nosotros decidimos utilizar al software enviado por Tenow. En nuestro caso la TBSViewer entr con una lista de canales pre-guar-
dados de ASTRA 19.2 Este, HOTBIRD 13 Este, ASTRA3 23.5 Este y ASTRA2 28.2. Esto signic que nosotros podramos en seguida estar listos para probar. El OSD puede desplegarse en los idiomas siguientes: Ingls, alemn, francs, Checo, hngaro, italiano, polaco, portugus, ruso, nlands y ucraniano. Est disponible una lista de 176 posiciones de satlite europeas, asiticas y americanas completas con sus datos de transpondedores, aunque esta informacin no es completamente moderna. Todos los parmetros de LOF pueden ponerse a mano, para que la tarjeta de PC trabajara con todos los LNBs disponibles. Si su sistema de la recepcin incluye un conmutador DiSEqC 1.0 para la recepcin de hasta cuatro satlite se estar contento averiguar que la tarjeta de Tenow tratar muy bien de este ajuste. Sorprendentemente, la tarjeta Tenow TBS 6981 incluso trabaja fcilmente con la solucin de cable SCR a la que soporta. La seal de 22 kHz para cambiar entre la banda de frecuencias superior e inferior y el voltaje del suministro para el LNB (13V para polarizacin vertical, izquierda en las seales circulares y 18V para la horizontal, derecha en las seales circulares) trabajo como era de esperar y requerido. Tenow ofrece tres modos de bsqueda: La bsqueda automtica busca todos los transpondedores en la lista pre-guardada, la bsqueda manual puede usarse para examinar un solo transpondedor que entonces se sintonizar. Nosotros nos impresionamos con la velocidad de bsqueda del TBS 6981, qu slo tom tres minutos y medio minutos para examinar 1.734 canales de TV y radio del HOTBIRD a 13 Este. Cada bsqueda puede restringirse para canales solo libres que es particularmente til si la tarjeta de PC no tiene una ranura de CI para la recepcin de TV de pago. Podra preguntarse ahora cul es el tercer modo de la bsqueda, ya que nosotros slo hemos mencionado hasta ahora automtico y manual. Es un tipo de modo de bsqueda ciega y requiere una frecuencia de entrada y salida adems del parmetro de paso as como todas las proporciones del smbolo que deben usarse. Nosotros probamos esta caracterstica para el rango de frecuencias completo de los satlites HOTBIRD a 13 Este con pasos de 5 MHz para nuestra prueba y para las proporciones de smbolo de 27.5 y 22 Ms/s. Result que este modo de bsqueda realmente no solo descubri todos los transpondedores activos en el rango de frecuencias pre-denido, sino que tambin pareca ser un procedimiento interminable y despus de una hora nosotros estbamos slo a mitad de camino a travs de nuestro rango de frecuencias por lo que nosotros decidimos can-

celar la bsqueda. En ese tiempo se haban descubierto cerca de 2,000 canales de TV y de radio y se haban guardado en la memoria. Nosotros recomendamos usar esta caracterstica para vericar un rango de frecuencias ms pequeo (para buscar enlaces, por ejemplo), como una gran manera de guardar su lista del canales completamente actualizada. Cuando nosotros comprobamos los ali51
que sus canales deseados puedan encontrarse rpidamente en cualquier momento. Alternativamente, siempre se puede usar el campo de bsqueda para buscar su estacin favorita. Puede abrirse una lista de favoritos haciendo clic en un pequeo botn al lado de la ventana de la bsqueda y all se pueden guardar todos esos canales en una base regular. Nosotros muy apreciado la manera Tenow ha llevado a cabo la seleccin de audio. En cuanto se selecciona un canal de la lista se muestran todas las huellas de audio disponibles a la derecha bajo la entrada del canal. No se tiene que ir a un men especializado para cambiar entre las huellas de audio sino que se dispone de toda la informacin justo delante de sus ojos. Parece los diseadores de software de Tenow tenan en la mente la amigabilidad del usuario al llevar a cabo esta caracterstica, y si se quiere mirar una pelcula en su idioma original de vez en cuando se estar muy agradecido por eso. La correccin y la ordenacin de los canales tambin se puede hacer en la ventana de seleccin lo que signica que todas las opciones estn correctamente disponibles cuando y donde se las necesita. Se pueden ltrar los canales segn ciertas caractersticas (AC3 audio, por ejemplo) o segn el proveedor, satlite o categora. Si se quiere agregar una claridad ms aun a su lista global de canales, se puede esconder todos los canales encriptados con un clic de ratn. Cada vez que se cambia a un nuevo canal el software inserta automticamente un OSD diestramente diseado con la informacin sobre el evento actual y el prximo, con tal de que el proveedor del canal lo suministre. El tiempo de cambio es rpido, considerado que nosotros estamos hablando aqu sobre una solucin en tarjeta para PC. Un poco menos de un segundo es todo lo que de toma para que un nuevo canal este disponible en la pantalla con el video y el audio sincronizados. El EPG extendido es una caracterstica ms que merece una mencin especial. Pueden seleccionarse las entradas del temporizador directamente en el modo de EPG para que los usuarios tengan a su disposicin una gua de la TV electrnica en la que pueden seleccionarse los eventos para grabar sin ningn desvo. Lo que diferencia la TBS 6981 de los dems competidores de tarjetas de PC es su segundo sintonizador, y una vez se es consciente de todos sus benecios no se querr hacer nada ms. Permite la grabacin de un canal mientras al mismo tiempo se mira otro canal en vivo. Incluso es posible realizar una bsqueda en el sintonizador 2 mientras se est mirando la TV en vivo en el sintonizador 1. Con la caracterstica del imagen en imagen
integrada es fcil de mirar un segundo canal en una ventana ms pequea durante un descanso comercial en su canal principal, por ejemplo. Ya no hay ningn riesgo de extraar un segundo de su serie favorita ya, y nunca ms sus dedos pulgares le jugarn una mala pasada cuando se espera la nalizacin del descanso. El teletexto tambin est disponible y se lleva a cabo enteramente con todas las caractersticas que se esperaran de l. Todava, todas esas buenas y tiles caractersticas simplemente no tendran valor sin los sintonizadores capaces en el primer lugar en el corazn de cualquier receptor o tarjeta de PC. No hay ninguna necesidad de preocuparse por la TBS 6981, sin embargo cuyos sintonizadores pueden recibir fcilmente cualquier seal de DVB-S y DVB-S2 que nosotros solicitemos de ellos. Las seales dbiles cerca del umbral de los sintonizadores, como la del BADR a 26 Este en nuestra situacin, no tuvo ningn problema y no caus cualquier cada del software, incluso cuando la correccin de error Viterbi integrada tena que trabajar horas extraordinarias por un perodo prolongado de tiempo. La prueba de SCPC tambin se pas con un excelente y los sintonizadores manejaron la recepcin enteramente y el proceso de las seales de nuestro transpondedor de prueba en el TURKSAT 42 Este con una proporcin del smbolo de slo 2.2 Ms/s. En nuestro centro de pruebas nosotros usamos intencionadamente un procesador Pentium IV algo anticuado para este informe. No despus de todo, todos nuestros lectores no estarn equipados con la ltima computadora innovadora. Aunque nuestra mquina estaba en el extremo ms bajo extremo de las especicaciones del fabricante, nosotros todava pudimos mirar seales en HDTV de DVB-S2 mientras se realizaba otra tarea de ocina al mismo tiempo en el PC. Obviamente el procesador y la tarjeta grca tenan que dar lo mejor, pero todava tenan la capacidad extra para haber trabajado razonablemente con la mquina. Todo el video siempre se present libre de interferencias, no importando si era HD o SD. Si se preere usar el telemando que viene con el paquete para el control del software en lugar de su teclado y ratn, le agradar saber que funciona perfectamente con la tarjeta de PC. Lo que es ms, cuando nosotros conectamos una TV de 40 pulgadas de pantalla plana al PC va el modo de presentacin DVI, el TBSViewer entreg una calidad de video excelente en una equivalencia con los receptores convencionales. Si se requiere, la TBSViewer ofrece un rango complejo de opciones de ajuste detalladas. Para dar simplemente un ejemplo, pueden seleccionarse los codecs diferentes para la reproduccin del video, dependiendo del formato del archivo. Esto se asegura que la TBSViewer puede ocuparse de varios for-

mentos de EBU en EUTELSAT W3A a 7 Este, nosotros pudimos descubrir todos los enlaces activos en aproximadamente el tiempo de un minuto. Nosotros tambin debemos dar una alabanza especial a la caracterstica de actualizacin del software que mantiene la lista de canales actualizada y agrega los canales recientemente encontrados sin desordenar la lista existente. Se puede crear una seccin especializada que guarda todos los nuevos canales incluso segn la fecha en que ellos fueron descubiertos. Esto ayuda tremendamente cuando se busca un canal que se agreg recientemente a su lista global. Una vez la lista de canales est llena con todo lo que nos ofrece el cielo, se puede ir al men de ajustes con otro clic de ratn para cambiar al TBSViewer que muestre el primer canal disponible. El software puede activarse automticamente moviendo el cursor a la esquina derecha superior de la ventana. Un listas en estructura de rbol muestra todos los canales segn los satlites y proveedores, para
matos de video como MPEG-2, H.264, DivX o XviD, entre otros. Incluso es posible procesar enlaces que se transmiten en el formato MPEG 4:2:2 de estudio, despus de que se ha descarado el codec de Elecard que est disponible libre de cargo de www.elecard.com. Esta caracterstica probablemente pondr las tarjetas Tenow en el punto de mira de cualquier DXer y feedhunter. En las seccin de ajustes se pueden personalizar todas las funciones bsicas de la tarjeta para encontrar cualquier requisito individual, como denir el tiempo de guarda y tiempo de retraso para las grabaciones del temporizador, dividir las grabaciones en archivos con tamao idntico, y deniendo uno de los dos sintonizadores como el sintonizador normal. Cuando se usa la TBSViewer averiguar que es capaz de procesar un rango entero de formatos diferentes, incluso MPEG, DivX, CD Video, AFS, WMV, WMA, OGG y OGM. Esto le permite mirar casi todos los contenidos de video, no slo transporte vertido de los satlites. Una barra de tiempo que se localiza en la seccin de abajo de la pantalla de video que permite saltar a cualquier sucesin durante la reproduccin de un evento grabado, o indica el progreso de un evento en vivo. Todas las grabaciones del satlite se guardan en el formato universal y generalmente usado de ujo de transporte para que ellos puedan revisarse fcilmente y pueden guardarse en DVD, por ejemplo. Aparte de su software de la presentacin interno Tenow proporciona tambin en el CD el software DVB Dream que es similar en las caractersticas al TBSViewer. Adems, el CD viene con los archivos de conguracin para la popular aplicacin ProgDVB, haciendo que la tarjeta de PC TBS 6981 un elemento perfecto para ese software.
Nosotros amamos de verdad que las nuevas tarjetas TBS trabaje tambin con el Windows Media Center, una coleccin de software que viene con Windows 7, por ejemplo. Hay usuarios que preeren bien este diseo y totalmente integrado en el software que es libre, ya que nuestra prueba demostrada que esta combinacin haba sido completamente cuidada. Eso es cmo se supone que el plug&play trabaja! En el extremo, depende del usuario escoger su software preferido. El punto principal es que el fabricante nos presenta con varias opciones que siempre son bienvenidas. Hay un punto ms de la tarjeta TBS 6981 con sintonizador dual que no quedar inadvertida: Un sintonizador puede ponerse separadamente para Internet-va-satlite, mientras que el segundo sintonizador se cuida de la recepcin de la seal de TV de los satlites. Los lectores que usan Internet-va-satlite sern conscientes del forcejeo constante de decidir entre Internet y TV, y nalmente la TBS 6981 hace que esto sea una cosa del pasado. El fabricante mantiene el software especco de acceso de Internet que acta a la vez como un adaptador de la red virtual en Windows y el acceso a la red mundial va el satlite con todos los parmetros requeridos (frecuencia, polarizacin, proporcin del smbolo, datos de la cuenta, etc.) entrados correctamente. Naturalmente, nosotros probamos eso tambin y podemos declarar que nosotros no encontramos nada por lo que quejarse. Incluso cuando grabamos por detrs el sistema estaba totalmente suelto, as era posible mirar un canal de HDTV mientras se haca surf en Internet va satlite al mismo tiempo.

El BUC consume aproximadamente 30 W de potencia elctrica y debe equiparse con un refrigerador de calor ms grande y pesado. Es ms, el plato debe garantizar la geometra apropiada y estabilidad de alineacin porque si no, estar transmitiendo interferencias a la seal de los satlites vecinos. No tema que estos platos no son ms grandes y ms slidos que los que los entusiastas de satlite estn familiarizados. Esos platos se llaman a menudo platos de VSAT. VSAT representa Apertura Muy Pequea del Terminal y signica una estacin de satlite bidireccional. Esto puede parecer bastante cmico pues los platos son ms grandes que las antenas de 60 o 90 centmetros norSVEC 1.2 dish 74.2 dBV 13.5 dB 12.8 dB 5.6 dB 5 x 10-5
males. Pero no olvide de la perspectiva profesional, una apertura muy pequea signica ms pequea de 3 metros.
Instalacin
Los paquetes que contienen los componentes del plato de SVEC eran grandes y pesados. No se preocupe, todo est hecho de acero. Despus de desempaquetar y examinar los componentes, nosotros concluimos con la satisfaccin de que el montaje debe ser bastante fcil. Y de hecho, lo fue. Incluso sin ninguna instruccin de montaje, no fue difcil deducir lo que debe conectarse y con que. Todo encaj muy bien, exceptuando un pequeo detalle. Nosotros no pudimos deducir cmo encajar los dos apoyos laterales del BUC/LNB. Despus de un rato, nosotros comprendimos que los soportes se montan en los bordes del plato lo que supona que estaban conectados con los soportes del LNB que estaban montados al revs. Cuando nosotros lo volvimos a montar de la manera correcta, todo

estaba OK y no haba ningn problema. Debido al tamao y peso del hardware, se necesita una ayuda para algunas operaciones, como por ejemplo al montar el reflector en el mstil. Hablando del mstil, tiene una base de la tres patas muy prctica. Aun cuando la superficie no sea bastante plana y horizontal, se puede ajustar cada pata independientemente y asegurar que el mstil est absolutamente vertical. A nosotros nos gust el mecanismo de ajuste de acimut. Realmente es un sueo cuando se compara con los platos de la recepcin normal. Se puso la antena aproximadamente en la direccin apropiada y entonces se rueda la palanca lo que hace que el plato se mueva hacia el Este o el Oeste. De esta manera, se puede ajustar el acimut con una precisin absoluta. El ajuste de elevacin es ms clsico, un largo y gordo tornillo con dos tuercas montadas. Nosotros podemos
asegurarle que este ajuste tambin es muy preciso y se puede alinear de la misma manera la elevacin as como el acimut. El soporte del LNB/BUC con el alimentador y el gua ondas aceptan la unidad normal de recepcin y la unidad de transmisin. Separa las polarizaciones, en nuestro caso la polarizacin vertical se us para la recepcin y la horizontal para la transmisin de la seal. Tambin le permite ajustar la inclinacin del juego de BUC/LNB. Nosotros necesitamos poner una inclinacin de 10 y no fue ningn problema. Despus de instalar el BUC y el LNB, nosotros nos giramos la antena aproximadamente en la direccin del EUROBIRD 3 a 33 E que era el satlite que nuestro proveedor de Internet estaba usando para su servicio. Despus de conectar un analizador de seal a la salida del LNB de satlite, nosotros vimos una seal inmediatamente en la muestra del espectro. Noso-
tros ejecutamos la funcin de identificacin de satlite y, a nuestra sorpresa fue: EUROBIRD 3. Entonces nosotros verificamos los parmetros del transpondedor y nuestra vista del espectro se centr exactamente en el transpondedor correcto. Increble! La nica cosa que hicimos fue ajustar finamente poniendo a punto de acimut, elevacin e inclinacin. Todo empiezo mucho mejor de lo que se esperaba, bien sea cauto. La Ley de Murphy est esperando en darle una sorpresa ms severamente. Y de hecho, nuestro mdem de DOCSIS no podra sintonizar el servicio. El indicador LED de recepcin estaba intermitente, el LED indicador de la transmisin estaba intermitente y nosotros no podramos conectar a Internet. Despus de la comprobacin doble de todo nosotros telefoneamos al operador. Despus de un rato, ellos volvieron a llamar con el mensaje de que ellos no podran sintonizar la seal. Ellos dijeron que evidentemente algo estaba
equivocado con el uplink y ellos mientras tanto investigaran el problema. Despus de media hora nos llamaron diciendo de nuevo que su mdem haba conseguido sintonizar la seal. Un chequeo rpido revel que nuestro mdem tambin la haba sintonizador. Finalmente, nosotros tenamos el acceso a Internet va el satlite.
Actuacin
Nosotros verificamos las velocidades de transmisin y de recepcin, y nosotros conseguimos: 2849 kb/s y 160 kb/s. Las figuras estaban en la lnea con la especificacin de conexin que nosotros tenamos de nuestro proveedor. Un pequeo retraso antes de la salida de la transmisin era notable pero esto es normal en la comunicacin del satlite. Despus de todos, el satlite est a 36000 Km. de all y algn buffering de datos que tambin debe tener lugar cuando se usan los esquemas de correccin de error. Pero cmo asegurar la calidad de la conexin? Noso57
Era casi dos veces ms bueno que la referencia. Para los lectores que no son familiares con el trmino: cuanto ms bajo el CBER, hay pocos bits errneos que necesitan ser corregidos por el mdem. Tambin el margen de enlace aument de 5.2 dB a 5.6 dB y se debe saber que 5 dB ya es considerado como muy bueno. Nosotros podemos estar seguros que con el plato de SVEC nuestra conexin de Internet ser casi completamente insensible a las condiciones. tros decidimos comparar la seal entrante cuando reciba con la antena SVEC de 1.2 m y cuando reciba con una antena normal de 1 m que se consigue cuando se subscribe a este servicio a nuestra situacin en Polonia. Como se puede ver en la tabla, el plato de SVEC entreg una seal ms fuerte de buena calidad. Es especialmente visible en la Proporcin de Error de Bit de Canal. Nosotros no tenamos ninguna posibilidad de medir la seal transmitida pero la actuacin del modelo de SVEC debe ser ms buena que la referencia en la misma
proporcin. Esto es fsica. Nosotros podemos asegurar esto porque el LNB y el BUC usan el mismo alimento localizado en la misma posicin con respecto al reector. Nuestra prueba revel que la antena SVEC de 1.2 m es muy buena (si no demasiado buena) para el acceso de Internet casual en Polonia. En otras regiones del mundo dnde la seal no es tan fuerte, usando una antena de 1.2 m en lugar de 1 m puede representar una diferencia. Nuestras medidas demuestran que la ganancia del plato es grande. Signica que su geometra no deja nada ser deseado. El plato de SVEC de 1.2m es una opcin perfecta para usarlo con VSAT.
El mecanismo de ajuste de acimut muy slido, excelente, la base de mstil de tres patas ajustables es muy buena

Los bloques
hbridos construidos para la Fibra ptica - el Sistema de Distribucin Coaxial
La nica manera de mantener una proporcin de C/N muy alta es usar conmutadores y lneas de transmisin de baja prdida. Pero la solucin mejor que est disponible hoy en da es el uso de cables de bra ptica. Ellos pueden tener como una atenuacin tan baja de unos 0.2 dB por kilmetro y una tasa de error sumamente baja (10-10) incluso con las proporciones de bit ms altas. Por supuesto, que todos sabemos que sto no es la corriente elctrica sino que un haz de luz ligera que viaja a lo largo del cable de bra ptica. As que, nosotros necesitamos convertir la seal elctrica en un haz de lser modulado. Esto puede hacerse directamente en el LNB, vease otro informe de prueba en otra edicin en TELE-satlite, o con la ayuda de un conversor externo. En el ltimo caso, nosotros usamos simplemente LNBs Quattro regulares o Quad y entonces convertimos sus cuatro salidas en luz. SPAUN, el fabricante alemn bien conocido, nos ha enviado su ltimo producto diseado para este propsito, el SOTx131607 NF. Ellos lo llaman el transmisor ptico. Al otro extremo de la bra ptica nosotros necesitamos hacer el funcionamiento inverso, la demodulacin de nuevo a una seal elctrica. SPAUN llam la unidad que hace esta funcin un receptor ptico y le asign el nmero de modelo: SORx1310607 NF. Perfecto, pero la modulacin y demodulation extra no estropean C/N de la seal? Esto estropeara todos los benecios introducidos por la baja prdida los cables de bra ptica. Esto es exacta-
mente lo que nosotros quisimos averiguar con nuestras medidas. Pero antes de la propia prueba, nosotros echamos una mirada ms ntima a las unidades. Como con todos los productos de SPAUN, su habilidad es perfecta. Tambin las etiquetas que pusieron la tapa del equipo en alemn e ingls deja a que no
se tenga ninguna duda lo que debe conectarse. El SOTx 1310607 NF RF tiene una entrada a la que nosotros o podemos colocar la seal IF del satlite exclusivamente o la seal del satlite ms la seal terrestre, asumiendo que nosotros los combinaremos ms temprano juntos (por ejemplo con la
ayuda de un diplexer). Esto es posible porque la entrada se disea para el rango de frecuencia de 47 hasta 2200 MHz que cubren ambos rangos de frecuencias el terrestre y el de satlite. Una buena caracterstica es el ajuste independiente de los niveles de seal de satlite y el nivel de la seal terrestre en la entrada:
graph 1
SPAUN ha construido en su unidad dos atenuadores de 0-12 dB. Los transmisores pticos no pueden conseguir el suministro de poder va un cable de bra ptica. Nosotros necesitamos conectar una alimentacin externa de 19 V. SPAUN agrega uno adecuado a cada SOTx 1310607 NF. No
slo se necesita la potencia elctrica por cada unidad sino que tambin proporcionar al LNB conectado a l. Con la ayuda de un conmutador montado en la tapa del transmisor, nosotros seleccionamos el voltaje apropiado y la presencia de la seal de 22 kHz. Gracias a eso, nosotros podemos usar o un LNB
Quattro (entonces, nosotros pondremos 12 V en todos los cuatro caminos de la seal) o un LNB Quad (entonces, nosotros necesitamos poner a cada camino diferentemente: 12V, 18V, 12V/22kHz, 18V/22kHz). Si nosotros tenemos una fuente de seal que no requiera alimentacin de DC, nosotros podemos
graph 2
apagarlo completamente. El SOTx 1310607 NF tiene dos entradas F conectadas en paralelo para el suministro de potencia. Gracias a eso nosotros podemos conectar una unidad de suministro de poder al primer transmisor y podemos conectar el segundo transmisor con un trozo de cable coaxial. De esta manera, nosotros no necesitamos unidades de suministro de alimentacin separados para cada transmisor. El SPAUN coloca un juego de PSU (fuentes de alimentacin) que da suciente potencia para impulsar hasta cuatro transmisores que asumen la potencia necesaria para un LNB. Si nosotros necesitamos impulsar un LNB que normalmente ser el caso, el nmero se reduce a tres transmisores. No obstante, es una simplicacin de la instalacin completa. El transmisor ptico tambin tiene un indicador LED que salvo la sealizacin la conexin de poder puede informarnos tambin sobre un corto circuito en la entrada de LNB. Empieza simplemente a ponerse intermitente. Eso es muy intuitivo. Otro salida elctrica es la seal de la prueba descrita como -20 dB. sta simplemente es la entrada que va atenuada por 20 dB que es la entrada del moduladordemodulador. Nosotros podemos usarlo para vericar si la seal de RF est presente en la entrada del transmisor y conocer su nivel. La salida ptica SC/APC est protegida con una tapa negra que tiene que ser quitada antes de que se conecte una bra ptica. A propsito, la conexin de las entradas y las salidas pticas es un sueo para un instalador del satlite. Apriete suavemente hasta que sienta un clic y ya est. Qu buena diferencia despus de los conectores F! Para enviar abajo cuatro seales de un LNB Quattro nosotros necesitamos usar cuatro transmisores SOTx 1310607 NF. Afortunadamente, era posible miniaturizar el receptor mucho ms que el transmisor. El SORx 1310607 NF es un receptor quad: tiene cuatro entradas pticas y cuatro salidas de RF elctrica. En contraste 63
graph 3
graph 4
con el transmisor, el receptor se enva sin un suministro de poder, porque se supone que recibe su potencia de la unidad de distribucin central o multi conmutador, como cualquier LNB normal. Un conector coaxial llamado C al receptor ptico acta como el conector de corriente; aqu es donde se supone que el usuario conectar el cable coaxial de una unidad central o multiswitch. En nuestro caso nosotros lo hicimos diferentemente: como las necesidades pticas del receptor son exactamente del mismo voltaje de DC como el transmisor, nosotros tomamos un unidad de suministro de poder de los juegos del transmisor. Las unidades son muy verstiles: no slo ofrecen un ancho rango de voltaje de suministro (de 100...240V CA / 47 ...63 Hz) sino que SPAUN tambin entrega varios adaptadores desmontables para que se pueda usarlo en cualquier parte del mundo. El suministro de DC puede conectarse a cualquiera de los dos conectores de F. Como en el transmisor, ellos se conectan en paralelo. As si la potencia de DC que se necesita para un dispositivo similar en el barrio, nosotros usaremos un cable coaxial ms bien que otra unidad de suministro de poder. Un indicador LED muestra si la unidad esta encendida. Pueden montarse el transmisor y el receptor en la pared con slo 2 tornillos. Ellos no deben exponerse al aire abierto sino deben usarse en el interior. Sin embargo, su temperatura de operacin es bastante ancha: -20C hasta +50C. El folleto incluido con cada unidad est impreso en ingls y alemn y proporciona toda la informacin necesaria junto con los ejemplos de circuitos de aplicacin.
Medidas
Despus de hacernos familiares con las unidades, lleg la hora de reunir todos los bloques y ver qu tipo de actuacin ofrecen. SPAUN recomienda el proporcionar al sistema de distribucin de bra ptica con seales muy fuertes: 80-83 dBV para el IF del satlite y 85 para 64 TELE-satellite Global Digital TV Magazine 12-01/201 www.TELE-satellite.com 1
Steffen Kuck
es el Gerente Tcnico de SPAUN para el sistema ptico
terrestre. El valor mximo es 95 dBV. Steffen Kuck, el Gerente Tcnico de SPAUN, nos explica,: Nuestro sistema ptico est diseado para la actuacin mxima y como tal requiere una fuerte seal de entrada . Nosotros proporcionamos a nuestra unidad de prueba la seal de la vida real del satlite HotBird. Nosotros conectamos los transmisores con el receptor con los cables cortos de bra ptica. As, para simular las salidas pticas (o lo que es lo mismo, cables muy largos), nosotros insertamos un atenuador ptico de 10 dB y despus incluso un atenuador de 15 dB. Como
se puede ver en los grcos (grco 1., grco 2.), la entrada del receptor era slo 5 dB o 10 dB ms baja que el sistema de entrada dependiendo del atenuador que nosotros usamos. Pero qu hay sobre la calidad de la seal? Esto puede evaluarse por la Proporcin de Error de Modulacin en la entrada y en la salida. Nosotros notamos una deterioracin muy pequea de la calidad de la seal, (grco 3., grco 4.) es casi nada. Si nosotros tuviramos 10 o 15 dB de atenuacin en un largo cable coaxial, la seal ya podra estar en el borde del umbral de la recepcin.
Pero qu hay sobre las seales terrestres analgicas? Para el portador ms fuerte (igual que la recomendacin de SPAUN) todo se qued el perfecto (48 vs. 47 dB). el sistema ptico de SPAUN slo transporta la seal de entrada tal como l la recibe.
Aplicaciones
Estas nuevas unidades pticas de SPAUN abren una marca en la nueva era en las grandes redes de distribucin de TV. Cada seal ptica en la salida del transmisor puede dividirse en 32 bras pticas y as puede crearse una enorme estructura de red. Por ejemplo, en cada piso de un gran bloque de apartamentos nosotros podemos tener un receptor ptico con cuatro salidas elctricas que a su vez pueden alimentarse a un multi conmutador conven-
cional y pueden distribuirse ms all a varios centenares de receptores de satlite! El nmero de subscriptores que pueden localizarse con esta nueva tecnologa es muy impresionante. Al mismo tiempo, uno debe recordar que esas bras pticas no permiten el paso de seales DiSEqC. Para multiplicar varios satlites disponibles al usuario nal, uno debe multiplicar el nmero de bras pticas (8 para 2 satlites, 12 para 3 satlites y as sucesivamente) as como los transmisores y receptores. El nuevo sistema de transmisor ptico de SPAUN no slo lo hace ms fcil sino que tambin la instalacin aanza que cada extremousuario tendr disponible una fuerte seal y perfecta en su enchufe, igual en cada esquina remota de una gran red a lo sumo.

Satellite LNB for C and Ku band

C/Ku band Combifeed with Integrated DiSEqC Switch

SATs C/Ku band feed delivered from Thailand was designed primarily for use on prime focus antennas; although with a little modication ingenuity, it can be tted on an offset antenna. For our rst test we opted to use a 120-cm antenna already installed on the roof of our testing facility. Such a 120-cm antenna already gives you access to thousands of channels from around the world in the Ku band. But as numerous as the Ku band availability really is, long-distance reception is typically achieved only with C band and thanks to this new Combifeed, it is quite easy to retrot your current system for C band reception. Since offset antennas are not normally designed to handle C band feeds, a cable clip, available from any electrical installer, was used to secure the Combifeed to the dish. Its not exactly a professional solution, but it is very effective and inexpensive. The installation required some dexterity but after several attempts and some ne tuning adjustments, the feed was in the correct position. The entire assembly including antenna motor was previously aligned using a standard 40mm Ku band LNB; the less
The C band is popular in many areas of the world, mainly in areas with heavy downpours or high humidity, since under these conditions the C band offers more advantages, being less sensible to rain compared to signals in the Ku band. But even in areas dominated by Ku band signals, as for example in Europe, there are still plenty of C band programmes to get. But erecting a second dish just for C band is often too much of trouble.
Right into this gap comes the C/Ku band LNB on offer by INFOSAT from Thailand. You no longer need two dishes, but you use your existing dish and just replace your current Ku band LNB against INFOSATs combifeed C/Ku band LNB. Of course you would better own a bigger dish, since C band signals usually are less strong than signals in Ku band. In most location, a dish with 120-cm would be sufcient to get in some interesting channels transmitted via satellites in C band. We gave it a test run at our editorial ofces in the center of Europe. INFO-

sensitive C band should therefore be no problem. With great expectations, we turned the antenna to the especially strong EXPRESS AM1 band satellite at 40 east. According to INFOSAT, the Combifeed has a Ku band reception range of 10.7 to 12.75 GHz using LOF (local oscillator frequency) values of 9.75 and 10.6 GHz as well as a C band range of 3.4 to 4.2 GHz with an LOF of 5.150 GHz. The specications also claim a gain of 65dB with a noise gure of 0.3 dB. Our rst tests were aimed at the C band so we quickly set up the correct LOF and then had a look at our spectrum analyzer. It indicated a strong signal located at 3675R. We quickly started a channel scan and found numerous Russian channels with plenty of signal strength. Further on, South American channels with relatively high signal strength could be found on NSS 806 at 40.5 west. A number of MCPC and SCPC transponders were receivable in sufcient quality. Especially strong were some Columbian channels on 4021L and RCN TV on 4016R; unfortunately, this channel was encrypted. Even a package of programs from Venezuela on 3880R could be received but without any bad weather reserves. A few other transponders were also receivable.
The C/Ku band

We were less successful when we tried NSS7 at 22 west where we could only receive 3644R without any problems. On Atlantic Bird 3 at 5 west we were able to easily view 4154L but all the other transponders hovered around the threshold level of the receiver. Even though the signal analyzer identied a number of clearly recognizable peaks on the display, they were still not strong enough for actual reception.
Things looked a little better on INTELSAT 907 at 27.5 west where we could receive three transponders (3715R with just some radio channels, 3831R with feeds from RTP/Portugal and 4048R). On INTELSAT 903 at 34.5 west only one transponder was receivable. For all the other C band satellite receviable at our location our dish was
simply too small. The normally strong EXPRESS AM44 satellite at 11 west could not be received with our 120cm antenna; the signals that we saw on the spectrum analyzer were too weak. The next step involved
Up until now we were quite pleased with the results we had gotten; now it was time to take a look at Ku band reception. The tions strong such as DTH posiat

19.2 east, HOTBIRD at 13 east, ASTRA2 at 28.2 east or ASTRA 3A at 23.5 east could all be received without any problems. We should mention at this point that the INFOSAT C/Ku band Combifeed is congured for reception of circularly polarized signals. With that said, the circularly polarized signals

taking a closer look towards the east. We stumbled across a few surprises: the (unfortunately encrypted) AFN package on INTELSAT 906 at 64.2 east on 4094L was identied by our receiver, Bangla Vision could be seen on APSTAR 2R at 76.5 east on 4049H and the Express AM1 at 40 east delivered a number of Russian channels with plenty of bad weather reserve.
on EUTELSAT W4 at 36 east could be received in surprisingly good quality.
Included in the package:
the C/Ku band Combifeed by INFOSAT in one housing with feed and jumper cable for the built-in DiSEqC switch.
If you remove the dielectric in the feed, then standard Ku band H/V signals could be received effortlessly. The reasons for the diminished performance of the Combifeed in the Ku band are fairly obvious. On the one hand, the included feed was not designed for use on offset antennas so you really cant blame the manufacturer for this shortfall. On the other hand, the homemade feed holder makes it rather difcult to perfectly align the LNB in the focal point of the antenna. And lets not forget that the C band is much more forgiving compared to the Ku band in terms of antenna alignment. Overall we can say that it denitely pays to replace your current LNB with the INFOSAT C/Ku band Combifeed. Dont expect miracles with signal quality in the Ku band, but for the reception of the strong C and Ku band positions, the Combifeed would be the perfect choice. At the same time, it gives you a peek at the wonderful world of C band even with a small antenna without having to eliminate the Ku band.

Realmente, es un golpe triple: NetUP, una compaa fundada tan recientemente como desde el 2001, tiene su oficina administrativa en un barrio de la Universidad Estatal de Mosc. La Estacin del metropolitano ms cercana es University y los dos fundadores de NetUP son - naturalmente!, estudiantes anteriores de esa universidad. Realmente, no slo son los dos fundadores graduados de la Universidad Estatal de Mosc, sino que casi todos los otros empleados tambin. Est claro para todos que NetUP es una plataforma de lanzamiento del conocimiento de la tecnologa digital colectiva, ya que todos los que trabajan en NetUP todava son muy jvenes. Empecemos con Abylay Ospan que es uno de los fundadores de la compaa y acta como Director: Yo tengo 30 aos , dice sonrientemente. Su compaero y fundador es Evgeniy Makeev que tiene un Master PhD en matemticas y tan slo tiene 29. Los dos mantienen profundamente el hecho de que la tecnologa digital es una indicacin clara que ellos han convertido una aficin en
No son contradictorios los trminos Joven y Conocimiento ? En muchos casos lo es, pero si nosotros hablamos sobre el conocimiento en la fabricacin y desarrollo, las dos condiciones van tambin muy juntas. Joven en un caso as se puede utilizar como recurso, lo que significa que no hay ninguna obligacin para depender de los desarrollos del pasado. As pues, podemos nosotros encontrar un ejemplo perfecto para que coincidan Joven y Conocimiento?. Si, nosotros estamos hablando aproximadamente del importante florecimiento de la tecnologa digital en Rusia. Y si nosotros podemos afirmar nuestra premisa con el hecho que la Universidad Estatal de Mosc se alinea entre todas las mejores universidades del mundo en lo que se refiere a la tecnologa digital que ensea e investiga, entonces Rusia parece estar en la onda!
El co-fundador de NetUP y Director
Abylay Ospan nos muestra los ltimos desarrollos de la compaa: Las tarjetas PCIe 2 x DVB-S2, 2 x DVB-T o C, 2 x ASI. Todas las tarjetas vienen con dos ranuras de CI.

Nosotros le preguntamos a haba lanzado una tarjeta de DVB-S2 con Abylay Ospan que nos d un informe sobre dos entradas (TELE-satlite 02-03/2010). los eventos que llevan al establecimiento de Por supuesto que nosotros quisimos NetUP. Cuando nosotros todava ramos aprender ms sobre esta lnea de produclos estudiantes, estbamos trabajando en tos, y Abylay Ospan nos di los detalles. un software de facturacin para los proveeNosotros desarrollamos todo internamente. dores de servicios de Internet . l todava Tanto el software como hardware (el diseo estaba en su ltimo semestre en la univerde placa de circuito) se ha diseado por sidad cuando Abylay Ospan se asoci con nuestros propios ingenieros . su colega Evgeniy Makeev para preparar su Andrew Budkin es la cabeza del Desapropio negocio que ofreca exactamente ese rrollo del Software y sabe precisamente la software de facturacin a clientes potenciales. El punto de partida no podra ser tan bueno. Durante su primer ao de ventas la facturacin nunca excedi de un nmero de cinco dgitos en USD, y en los dos aos posteriores la produccin aument de forma consistente. Era la hora de saltar a los pases del CIS, y la mayora de ellos se adhirieron a las soluciones del software de NetUP. Ms de 2,000 ISPs actualmente confan en nuestro software de facturacin, con el 90% de ellos localizados en los pases del CIS , nos relata orgullosamente el estado de cuentas el Gerente de Ventas de NetUP, Konstantin Emelyanov . A los proveedores pequeos y medianos les gusta en particular nuestra solucin de software que depende idealmente para una base 50.000 clientes . Incluso el nombre de la compaa se deriva de esa estrategia: Network Up una compaa que se preocupa de la expansin de la red. NetUP ha agregado mientras tanto otro segmento comercial a su carpeta porfolio, que encaja fcilmente con el negocio del software original para ISPs: NetUP ahora tambin est en vas de desarrollo del software y hardware para IPTV. La IPTV ya ha ganado una 70% porcin de nuestra produccin, El Director de NetUP, Abylay Ospan, revela y agrega: las ventas anuales son ms altas de un miln de USD este ao . De hecho, se ha puesto difcil el diferenciar entre el software para ISPs e IPTV, los proveedores del servicio de Internet se han vuelto tambin proveedores de IPTV. Para

cantidad de esfuerzo puesta en un proyecto de tal magnitud. Porque para las tarjetas DVB-S2 dos de nuestros ingenieros trabajaron juntos la mitad un ao hasta que el hardware estuvo listo para la produccin. Dos ingenieros de software adicionales les escribieron los controladores requeridos para el software basados en Linux. NetUP igualmente ha jugado un papel mayor encontrando el fabricante correcto para la produccin de las tarjetas. Una fabrica a unos 100km de Mosc est al cargo de fabricar nuestras tarjetas de PC. Las tarjetas se usan slo en montajes profesionales lo que signica que los nmeros de produccin estn en el lado ms bajo cuando se compara con la produccin masiva para el consumo particular. Nosotros slo producimos unas 1,000 tarjetas cada ao, nos dice Abylay Ospan. Esto nos ha hecho que seamos curiosos y estamos vidos en averiguar qu est en el futuro NetUP. Ahora mismo al nal de 2010 nosotros estaremos lanzando una tarjeta PCIe para DVB-T y DVB-C . Como las tarjetas DVB-S2 , tambin tienen dos
entradas y sintonizadores. Nosotros tambin estamos trabajando en una tarjeta con dos entradas de ASI. Las tarjetas PCIe de NetUP no estn orientadas al comercio de los usuarios nales privados. Se usan en equipos profesionales de generacin de contenidos, como el DVB de NetUP o el Gateway IP 4x y el IPTV Combine 4x. El ltimo (IPTV Combine 4x) es un producto especial para el mercado de hospitales. sta es una solucin todo en uno para IPTV que incluye el Middleware de IPTV, facturacin, pasarela DVB a IP y servidor de VoD (vea el informe de la prueba en TELE-satlite 10-11/2010). Tales sistemas de IPTV son un favorito en hoteles y hospitales, porque cada habitacin puede acceder individualmente a diferentes contenidos a travs de una infraestructura cableada y puede compararse a un sistema en bus. Uno de nuestros grupos del cliente ms grandes son los hoteles que generalmente preeren los sistemas bidireccionales. Esto signica el husped de un hotel no slo puede disfrutar de la TV y el acceso a Inter-

net en su cuartos, sino que la direccin del hotel tambin puede enviar mensajes personales y personalizados a los huspedes de sus habitaciones , Abylay Ospan nos da las razones que hay detrs de su infraestructura. Hay otra caracterstica que muestra que el diseo de las tarjetas PCIe de NetUP son para el mercado profesional: Nosotros estamos empezando a enviar nuestras tarjetas basadas en el chipset de ALTERA ahora. Y que hace esto tan especial? Bien, el hardware es idntico para cada cliente y slo el software en la tarjeta de PCIe dene el alcance de aplicacin. En el tercer trimestre del 2011 nosotros basaremos tambin nuestras tarjetas 2 x DVB-S2, qu se presentarn en un futuro en TELE-satlite, en el chipset de ALTERA , agrega el Gerente de Ventas de NetUP Konstantin Emelyanov. Ya hablando de los productos introducidos en TELE-satlite: El Gateway de NetUP DVB-IP 4x puede pedirse con un codicador/decodicador de H.264 a partir del tercer trimestre del 2011. Habrn cosas igualmente excitantes hacia el nal del 2011 cuando nosotros ofreceremos el Gateway 4x DVB-IP con unicast . Esto har el dispositivo, qu hasta aqu slo est disponible como un modelo multicast, ms amistoso al usuario y tambin permitir a las personas comnes distribuir sus canales de TV va Internet. A la cabeza de Desarrollo del Software, Andrew Budkin, tiene otro grupo de noticias interesantes en la reserva. Slo tiene el sentido econmico para algunos proveedores de Internet va satlite usar la banda baja ahorrando el valioso ancho de banda . Esto es por qu NetUP ha decidido desarrollar las tarjetas de PC precisamente con esa estrategia en la mente. Las grandes
compaas podran estar sumamente interesadas en esa tecnologa , agrega Abylay Ospan y pone el siguiente ejemplo: Gazprom usa esta tecnologa en sentido nico para sus redes locales . NetUP es simplemente el especialista en disear completamente los productos correctos con el software correspondiente para las aplicaciones de nicho como esas. Hasta ahora nosotros hemos odo hablar todos esas grandes historias de xito de productos innovadores, pero qu hay de las personas estn haciendo todo el trabajo duro detrs? Haciendo una mirada alrededor de las instalaciones de NetUP tenemos alguna luz en esta pregunta. Un total de diez ingenieros y programadores trabajan en el Desarrollo, otros diez son ingenieros y programadores en el soporte tcnico para resolver problemas que los clientes profesionales podran experimentar, y otro diez empleados estn al cargo de la Direccin y Administracin. El Gerente de Ventas, Konstantin Emelyanov, nos da alguna idea de dnde puede reunirse con los representantes de la compaa cara a cara: Cada ao nosotros participamos activamente en el
IBC (msterdam), CSTB (Mosc) y el Foro Mundial IPTV (Londres). Si se est buscando una compaa joven con un habilidad extensa, ha llegado al lugar correcto con NetUP. La compaa tiene un alado conocimiento en lo que respecta a la ltima tecnologa de IPTV y est llena de conocimientos tcnicos que los empleados de NetUP adquirieron de la Universidad Estatal de Mosc. Todo esto mantiene el enorme mpetu conquistado por la marca en el nuevo mundo de IPTV!
El Director de Ventas de NetUP es Alejandro Chistiakov
En el cargo de Desarrollo del Software: Andrew Budkin encabeza el equipo del software.
El servicio tcnico al cliente es una apuesta de NetUP: Un tercio de la mano de obra vigila a los clientes y se asegura que usan los productos de NetUP y su software apropiadamente. Alexey Butkeev (a la izquierda) es la cabeza del soporte tcnico, Eugene Druzhinin (a la derecha) es uno de sus miembros del equipo.

Tevii, Fabricante de Tarjetas de PC & Receptores, Taiwn
Tevii Golpeando En Nuevos Mercados

Tevii - mientras era joven de edad - ya se ha trabajado una slida reputacin para sus tarjetas de PC y sus unidades USB y est ahora en progreso de lanzar un nuevo rango para nuevos mercados. Matthias Liu es el fundador de Tevii y el director de ventas principal de la compaa. l revela algunos planes futuros en una reunin que nosotros tuvimos con l en Munich, uno de los variados destinos globales que l visit recientemente.
Para empezar, Matthias Liu nos da una breve cuenta de dnde viene: Hasta el 2006, era empleado como gerente de ventas para una compaa mayorista en la industria del satlite. Cuando esta compaa fue comprada por otro tom la decisin para ponerme por cuenta propia. Algunos de sus colegas anteriores se impresionaron igualmente con su estrategia comercial mirada a la cara y para que ellos decidieron tambin saltar a borde de. Tevii empez con una mano de obra total de slo ocho personas , Matthias revoca en su paseo de su memoria. Nunca es fcil empezar desde el principio y el primer artculo en nuestra lista era un desarrollo de nuestros propios productos. Slo fue en el ao siguiente, el 2007, en que nosotros pudimos generar una modesta produccin . En el caso de que sienta curiosidad sobre los datos exactos: fueron 250,000 $ EE.UU. en el 2007. Tevii ha venido aumentando sus ventas desde entonces y espera ventas que alcancen los 2.2 millones de $ EE.UU. en 2010 e incluso 3 millones de $ EE.UU. el siguiente ao. Hable sobre su slido negocio! Obviamente, los nmeros de personal tambin han aumentado por lo que hoy nosotros tenemos 28 empleados, un enorme nmero de ellos, 18 son ingenieros en Investigacin y Desarrollo . Matthias Liu puede estar de verdad orgulloso de lo

director de ventas de Tevii.
que l ha podido lograr en un corto periodo de tiempo. Pero qu hace exactamente Tevii por todas partes? Nosotros siempre nos hemos enfocado en las tarjetas de PC para la recepcin del satlite. Y para los usuarios porttiles nuestro rango incluye dispositivos USB tambin, nos explica Matthias Liu. A propsito, el propio Matthias no tiene ningn estudio de ingeniera, pero un investigador dedigno que siente las necesidades del mercado. Para cada producto nosotros nos sentamos y evaluamos lo que se espera justicar con sus ventas, y nalmente invertimos en el coste del desarrollo, nos explica. Ahora viene con una sorpresa, entonces, la seccin de R&D es el elemento central del Tevii en su modelo comercial. La produccin real tambin es externalizada a fabricantes terceros en Shenzen en Taiwn en el continente Chino. El truco es proponer el producto correcto en el momento correcto, declara Matthias Liu e ilustra este credo con un ejemplo: Ahora mismo que tanto se habla sobre DVBT2, por ejemplo, sta es una tecnologa que slo empezar a penetrar los mercados en aproximadamente dentro de dos aos. Cuando eso pase tendremos nuestros propios productos de DVB-T2 tambin y estarn listos para el despegue . No hay ningn producto que sea el primero, es una prdida de valiosos recursos que slo pueden llevarse a la frustracin si no se usan sabiamente. Decidiendo en el tiempo correcto es la llave al xito econmico.

Una mirada ms ntima en el rango de productos de Tevii presta un apoyo adicional a esa teora. Cuando la compaa se estableci en 2007 ofreci dos productos: el S400 DVB-S que era una tarjeta de PC y el dispositivo S600 USB para el uso con computadoras porttiles. Ambos productos vinieron con un sintonizador de Sharp que se reemplaz al principio del 2008 con un sintonizador NIM de Serit . Desde entonces las designaciones de los producto han cambiado a S420 y S630. Cuando acab despacio la era de DVB-S y simplemente estaba DVB-S2 en la vuelta de la esquina Tevii lanz el modelo sucesor S464 como tarjeta de PC y el S660 como dispositivo USB para el uso con porttiles al nal del 2008. Y posiblemente uno que no conoce, el Tevii S470 que se introdujo en 2009 slo cuando todo el mundo entero estaba convirtindose a PCIe (PCI Express) como un reemplazo de las ranuras de PC ms viejas. Al nal del 2010 la nueva demanda se reuni con el lanzamiento de una tarjeta de PC con un sintonizador dual, el nombre del modelo es S480 y dispone de dos sintonizadores de DVB-S2. Si se han ledo todas las lneas de este informe hasta ahora, probablemente se puede suponer lo que viene luego. El DVB-T ha aparecido considerablemente por encima de todo el mundo y se realiz un dispositivo de USB con un sintonizador para la recepcin de DVB-S2 y un segundo sintonizador para DVB-T. Todava, Matthias Liu ha dejado lo mejor para lo ltimo:
Nosotros estamos ofreciendo actualmente tambin una tarjeta con cudruple sintonizador la recepcin deDVB-T en MPEG4! Este producto en particular se desarroll para un proveedor australiano. La tarjeta con un cudruple sintonizador es una gran vendedora en las grandes regiones que ofrecen DVB-T . Una vez ms, Tevii ha esperado el momento adecuado. Hasta muy recientemente el DVB-T no se haba rodado totalmente en muchos pases, y las regiones con ms de cuatro frecuencias de DVB-T eran contadas y muy esparcidas. As que qu es lo que nos prepara ahora Tevii? Nosotros no podemos esperar de tener noticias de Matthias Liu de lo que su sentimiento le est dicindo. Al principio del 2011 nosotros lanzaremos nuestro primer receptor convencional totalmente equipado !, se llamar B600 y lucir un sintonizador de DVB-S2, sistema operativo Linux, la funcionalidad de PVR, USB y conexin Ethernet, y por supuesto HDMI, aunque los dos euroconectores scart garantizarn la compatibilidad con todos los aparatos viejos de TV. El paquete estar completado con ranuras de CI y CA. Qu ha hecho a Tevii el extenderse desde las Tarjetas de PC hasta el segmento de mercado dee receptores? Es realmente bastante simple , nos contesta Matthias Liu. Las tarjetas de PC son productos para un mercado de nicho y ahora que nosotros hemos logrado una slida reputacin en ese mercado de nicho, es la hora de lanzar nuestra marca tambin en el mercado de receptores . Esto no significa, sin embargo, que se abandone el rango de las tarjetas de PC y dispositivos USB. En el primer trimestre del 2011 nosotros presentaremos una extensin
Matthias Liu usa su computadora porttil para mostrarnos el nuevo receptor de la marca, el B600 que se lanzar
brevemente.
Todava no est disponible: El primer receptor de Tevii para entrar en un nuevo segmento del mercado. El modelo B600, es un receptor DVB-S2 HDTV
basado en Linux.
de CI para nuestro dispositivo USB que se seguir en el segundo trimestre por la misma extensin para nuestra tarjeta PCIe . Incluso parece extenso pero Matthias Liu cree que el 2012 ser todava un buen ao para lanzar otra nueva lnea de productos: Nosotros ofreceremos cajas de USB para la recepcin de tecnologa de cable en DVB-C . El claro enfoque de Tevii en DVB es una indicacin para Europa que es el mercado ms importante de la compaa. Matthias Liu tiene todos los nmeros: Nosotros generamos el 40% de nuestras ventas en Europa Occidental, con otro 40% en Europa Oriental, incluso Rusia. El siguiente 20% va al Medio Este y Egipto . Hay una razn para Matthias Liu de mencionar Rusia y Egipto especficamente, pus las lneas de Tevii entre
Nuevo de Tevii: El S480 es una tarjeta de PC para la
recepcin de DVB-S2 con dos sintonizadores. Puede usarse para mirar un canal HDTV en la pantalla mientras se est grabando un segundo canal HDTV al mismo tiempo con un PVR.
. Y hay una regin ms importante en la que Tevii no est todava presente entonces. Tiene razn, Amrica del Sur, todava es un tipo de mancha negra en nuestro mapa. Pero nosotros estamos en el progreso de desarrollar los productos tambin para el mercado de America del Sur , de esta manera Matthias Liu nos revela otro de sus planes estratgicos de la expansin a largo plazo. Para acabar, nosotros queremos averiguar lo que hizo Matthias Liu decidiendo la marca de fbrica Tevii. Eso es muy simple, nos contesta con una sonrisa. Todos nuestros productos tienen que hacer con la TV de una manera o de otra, y la TV de la manera que es pronunciada en ingls puede escribirse fcilmente como Tevii .
Un producto muy especial que est

los proveedores de la venta de tarjetas de PC y dispositivos USB est en ambos pases. Todava, Matthias Liu es ms inteligente de que nosotros podemos esperar y l tiene ms hambre. Nosotros estamos mirando la manera de aumentar nuestras ventas en Asia, sobre todo en Vietnam, Malasia, Singapur e Indonesia
exclusivamente disponible en Tevii: El T700 es una tarjeta de DVB-T/MPEG-4 con cuatro (!) sintonizadores.
En el futuro de Tevii: Un
receptor combi para DVB-S2 y DVB-T en MPEG-4.
El mismo concepto tambin se usa para el logotipo de la compaa, con un ojo que reemplaza el punto en cada i, y la T estilizndose como una torre de transmisin. Finalmente, la E se convierte en una antena del satlite y el logotipo es una metfora de lo que es la marca por todas partes. La publicidad perfecta, de una forma Matthias Liu ha usado su intuicin y ha escuchado a su interior y siente el convertir su joven negocio en una compaa innovadora en el curso de slo unos aos. Uno de los elementos importantes en su estrategia de xito es el enfoque consistente en los desarrollos tcnicos en lugar de fabricar que puede ser fcilmente externalizado y as puede ocuparse en centrar sus habilidades. Permite a otros hacer la fabricacin, Tevii se concentra mejor en proponer los productos correctos en el momento correcto. Y que en s mismo dominan la parte ms trapacera.
El Archivo de Productos de Tevii

1. El primer producto desarrollado internamente por Tevii: El S400 es una tarjeta de PC para la recepcin de DVB-S con un sintonizador de Sharp. Esta tarjeta ya no est disponible. 2. El sucesor del S400 se llam S420 y vino con un sintonizador NIM (Integrado) de Serit. 3+4. Las cosas se estn poniendo ms interesantes: El S464 era una tarjeta de PC que se lanz al final de 2008 y poda recibir las seales de DVB-S2. Ya en 2009, Tevii introdujo el S470 que tambin estaba diseada para las seales de DVB-S2 pero en el nuevo formato PCI Express.

FEATURE
TV Transmission Standard
minal devices at users site are TV-sets and receiver boxes that optionally have web connection. Please note: not the PCs! With a HbbTV product, the user still has only one remote control and one screen and the operation is as easy as with a regular TV-set and a receiver box. The user enjoys the combined wealth of broadcast and broadband: new services from entertainment providers, online providers and CE manufacturers. Examples are: catch-up TV, video on demand, interactive advertising, personalization, voting, betting, photo sharing or social networking. Enhanced EPG and teletext are also included. Hybrid in the HbbTV name means using on one side the medium typical for todays digital TV broadcast and on the other side the World Wide Web. Specication is independent from the broadcast transmission medium: DVB-T, DVB-S and DVB-C. IP connection is recommend but not required. Of course, the functionality will be limited if one has no connection to the Internet. And now one paragraph for the professionals. The HbbTV specication is based on elements of existing standards and web technologies : OIPF (Open IPTV Forum), CEA, DVB and W3C. Except for the standard web technologies (HTML,
Hybrid broadcast broadband TV Get organized for the inevitable

This will not be a surprise for TELE-satellite readers. A new standardization initiative has been started to integrate the digital TV world with the Internet. The basic idea is quite clear: make it as seamless as possible for the end user. TELE-satellite editors often mentioned the obvious truth: the average end user is rarely interested through what transmission medium data is coming to their TV-sets or monitors. Is it via satellite, via cable or via the air? Or perhaps via Ethernet cable rather than the coaxial one used in CATV? And maybe via optical bers?
This is a typical situation in todays rapidly changing industry: most advanced manufacturers demonstrate that new functionalities are possible from the technology and economical point of view and suddenly everybody realizes that if we do not have a good new standard, a number of solutions not compatible with one another will pop up soon. This will trigger a big confusion among the end users, operators and manufacturers. It is in everybodys interest to create a common solution. Exactly this happened in the receiver boxes industry. Our readers certainly remember the test reports describing the receivers capable not only to process satellite TV signal but also enabling the user to surf the Internet. On August 29 2009, a consortium of leading European companies of broadcasters, research institutes, satellite
operators and media and software providers has been established with a goal to prepare a harmonized broadcast and broadband specication for delivery of news and entertainment to the end user. The solution is based on existing standards and web technologies and the ter-

It is also expected that the rst two countries in which HbbTV will become popular will be Germany and France.

DSM-CC is about downloading data through the digital TV channel while HTTP refers to the same process but through the Internet connection. HTTP and RTSP are the streaming video formats used to deliver movies via the Internet while in DVB we have a transport stream (TS). Java scripts are used in both worlds. Quite often the OSD you can see on the screen is coded with Java. HbbTV has some competitors - other solutions for interactive TV services
HbbTV exemplary implementations were shown at IFA and IBC in 2009. To have an idea about the new look that HbbTV makes possible see the pictures taken at IFA on ARD stand. German operator ARD has demonstrated 14 different applications using HbbTV.

Satellite Installation
iPhone, iPad and iPod Apps for Antenna Alignment, or: How your smartphone turns into a great tool for DXers and installers
Thomas Haring
Smartphones are currently turning our mobile world upside down and have conquered large segments of the consumer market. They allow us to not only stay in touch through conventional phone calls but also to check our mail, hook up to the Internet, stay up to date on social networking platforms like Twitter and Facebook, listen to music, shoot photos and help us with all sorts of everyday tasks. Yet, smartphones can also be used in the professional realm to help with the installation of satellite antennas, for example.
If we look at all the shiny smartphones on offer these days there is one particular kind that seems to ride a gigantic wave of success: Of course were talking about the Apple iPhone which in combination with the iTunes store offers a wealth of additional applications (socalled apps) to pimp it up. TELE-satellite has looked at a range of apps that might be handy with regard to satellite reception.
DishPointer Compass superimposes the Clarke Belt on

the camera to create augmented reality
they start out with determining the current location with the help of the iPhones buit-in GPS receiver. Next, you enter the satellite position youd like to receive and the app then calculates azimuth, elevation and skew parameters. In theory, these values are all you ever need to correctly set up your dish, and most antennas feature a small scale to help you nd the correct position. But if you dont have a compass at our disposal theres one answer you still need to nd, even though the azimuth angle is known: In which horizontal direction do you need to move the antenna? The DishPointer Maps app provides the answer by looking up data from Google Maps. On the phones display you see your location and its surroundings in map view, satellite view or hybrid view combining both, with an arrow clearly indicating which way your satellite antenna should
point. Comparing certain striking points on Google Maps with their real-world counterparts quickly lets you achieve a rough alignment of your antenna. Another aspect that needs to be addressed preferably BEFORE starting with the actual installation job is evaluating the local environment. DishPointer Compass comes into play now as it nds out whether or not a desired satellite position can be received at the actual location and which reception range a motorised antenna is able to cover. Perhaps there are trees, buildings or other obstructions in the way of perfect reception? After all, its of no use to do all the tricky work and mount an antenna only to nd out afterwards that the signals youre looking for dont reach the LNB. With DishPointer Compass its easy to avoid such disappointment. It lets you know which satellites can be received at
DishPointer Compass and DishPointer Maps

Some issues ago we introduced apps from DishPointer (TELE-satellite issues 02-03/2008 and 12-01/2010) and obviously they are featured in this overview as well. Both apps specically deal with satellite antenna installation and alignment and

the current location and where the best mounting place is. The app comes with an extremely comprehensive list of virtually all satellite positions between 180 East and 177 West. With the pro version (listed on the iTunes store as DishPointer Compass) this list can even be edited so that new positions can be added. The less expensive version without editing option is called DishPointer Augmented Reality.

Users start with selecting all those satellites that might be of interest to them. If a satellite is not featured on the prestored list it can easily be added manually (pro version only). A touch of the Camera AR View now activates the built-in camera and the iPhone itself needs to be pointed towards the sky. As if by magic the smartphones display does not only show the actual camera view but also depending on the way you hold and point the phone the Clarke Belt as well as all currently visible satellite positions. This way it is childs play, on one hand, to gure out which satellite is where and, on the other hand, to see at rst glance whether or not there is an unrestricted line of sight between your current location and the satellite. Such combination of actual view and additional information that is inserted by the device is called augmented reality and this new technology is tremendously helpful when it comes to visualise information that would be difcult to obtain otherwise. In the twinkling of an eye you can look at the complete range of a motorised antenna and before you even carry the antenna up to the roof you can check which satellites will be received and which wont. Its apps like these that can turn a regu4. Green arrows in the lower area mean the antenna has to be moved another 10 to the West in order to receive signals from THOR at 1 West 5.

received the grid is moved along the map like a slider and the app shows which satellite is to be found at the current position of the grid. You then need to nd your own location on the map and read the values that are indicated with circles. In our test we were not really impressed by that approach since the world map appears rather small on the iPhones display. This makes it difcult to accurately determine your actual location, which in turn may lead to signicant deviations from correct parameters. The augmented reality version of this app uses the integrated camera of the iPhone and superimposes the Clarke Belt with the corresponding satellite positions. As with the DishPointer Compass app you need to point the iPhone towards the sky and move it until the Clarke Belt appears on the display. Unfortunately this feature, too, is inferior to the DishPointer app: While the Satellite Augmented Reality app features a comprehensive list of prestored satellites all of which can be selected or unselected for displaying we didnt appreciate the fact the Clarke Belt itself is not shown as a continuous

EasySat comes with a database of 173 satellites complete with their full names and orbital positions. Thanks to the builtin positioning system of the iPhone this app calculates azimuth, elevation and skew of any desired satellite with regard to the current location. There is also a virtual Clarke Belt for you to select the desired satellites, or you may choose to pick your preferred orbital position from a pre-stored list. For those of you with an iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 with integrated compass there even is a convenient graphic display showing satellite installers the way to the correct azimuth value. Red and green arrows pop up until you point the phone accurately in the direction of the required satellite. If you now point the antenna in the same direction as well you have already achieved a rough alignment. We tried it out in a real-world scenario and were very pleased with the results.

In our opinion this feature serves no useful purpose and wastes valuable display space after all, the iPhones display is on the smaller side for satellite installation anyway. To be fair, this app is less expensive than most competing products with 1.59 (US$ 1.99) for the simpler version and 3.99 (US$ 4.99) for the augmented reality version. On the other hand, due to limited usability we still cannot wholeheartedly recommend this solution.

Conclusion
As you have seen, quite a number of apps deal with satellite antenna installation and alignment. Obviously, this overview can only provide a snapshot of what is available at a given point in time, as the number of apps increases almost by the day. Resourceful software developers are probably working on even better solutions this very moment and as always beauty is in the eye of the beholder. While particular features may be an absolute must for some, others will go out of their way to avoid them. We have tried to establish factual criteria for rating all apps in this overview, but we would still urge our readers to try out and see for themselves which app they like best. For a rough orientation have a close look at the screenshots provided or the information available on the iTunes store.

DishLoc
The DishLoc app sports a clever design and easy-to-use interface. It comes with an extensive database of all direct-tohome satellites, determines the current location by using the iPhones integrated GPS receiver and adjusts the list of satellites accordingly. We genuinely liked that approach because it just wouldnt make sense for a German user to be shown satellite positions such as ECHOSTAR 14 at 119 West, for example. Unless you decide to dig a hole through the earth youll never have a chance of receiving signals from that position in Germany. As a next step, one or more satellites can be selected for detailed analysis. As soon as the current location is set either manually or determined via GPS all satellite entries come with correct azimuth, elevation and skew values. We found this to be a very convenient feature.

DXer REPORT
Rainer Schulz and Berndt Rosenberger, Lausitz, Germany
Two Satellite DIY enthusiasts

Have you ever built a satellite receiver yourself? Not many have, but Rainer Schulz from the small town of Trbitz an der Lausitz in the East of Germany is one of the very few who achieved just that in 1988. And he didnt stop there: He even built a 1.5m antenna to go with it. Its no surprise then that he chose to become self-employed and founded a small satellite dispatching business which today is run by his daughter Daniela Knott.
Trbitz (Cottbus)
Theres no doubt: A house with such
huge antenna in the front yard must be occupied by DXers. In case youre wondering the antenna can be rotated and therefore receives signals from 31 satellites in an arc from 83 East to 58 West.

Previous TELE-satellite DXer Reports can be Read Here:
Rainer Schulzs company is based in a pretty family home that looks just like many others in the Lausitz area. A huge 3.66m satellite antenna that is surrounded by several smaller dishes reveals whats going on inside. In an annex next to the garage visitors find a small showroom with receivers that might be interesting for DXers, above all. These boxes are equipped with lowthreshold tuners and a reliable blind san mode, both of which are key features of DX receivers. This box, for instance, comes with an extremely accurate signal quality indicator, Rainer Schulz explains and points to a receiver providing immediate feedback with regard to changing signal quality. 19% means there is stable video, 18% means some artefacts will occur and 17% means reception is not possible anymore. Such attention to detail is additional proof of Rainer Schulzs DX credentials. It all started in 1988 when he was manager of the measurement and control systems department at a large manufacturer of agricultural machinery in Eastern Germany. At the time the Berlin Wall was still in place and there was no way you could get your hands on satellite receivers, LNBs or antennas in what was the German Democratic Republic. Yet, Rainer Schultz was in a privileged position: I also used to work in customer service for my employer, which meant I was allowed to

undertake business trips to West Germany. There he obtained a tuner, an LNB as well as a wiring diagram and smuggled everything back to East Germany. He used the workshop of his employer to build his first self-made receiver with the components and information collected in the West. I even went so far as to build an antenna as well, he walks down memory lane. I made a parabolic mould using concrete in my backyard, laid it out with epoxide resin and glass-fibre sheet and in the end had a perfectly usable 1.5m dish. Up to this day Rainer Schulz is proud of his early achievements and even digs up the receiver he made back then from the basement. And as if that wasnt enough, there is even a signal meter around that he also built himself back then. Obviously, his technical knowledge didnt go unnoticed and so it came about that he built a total of ten receivers himself. They were sold on for tons of money, as CATV head-ends, in particular, were interested in satellite receivers and paid up to 6.000 marks per unit. After the Berlin Wall had come down all this was to change dramatically. Truckloads of satellite equipment were sent from West Germany, but also farming equipment from the West all of a sudden was available alongside homegrown products. The transition from centrally planned socialist economy to free market was felt first-hand by Rainer Schulz, as sales of his employers company slumped and he was laid off. What he did then was turn his tumbling blocks into stepping stones. It was the second of July 1990 when my first company Antennen- & Satanlagenbau Rainer Schulz opened for business. In 2000 sat-

Rainer Schulz even built his own meter. Here he shows the
original device from 1988.
Berndt Rosenberger has been a satellite DXer for
just as long. Here he considers his options of how to convert a mast mounting system to make it fit to an actuator. A dish manufacturer has asked Rainer and Berndt to find a solution for that.

This is controlling the LNB,
this time for the C band: the motor (red) turns the LNB. Next picture shows the control unit.
C band reception with only a small
antenna? No problem, if you know how and where to mount the LNB. One antenna manufacturer has equipped a 1.2m dish with alternative rods that allows to arrange both the Ku band LNB in the focal point and the C band LNB outside the focal point using a rail system. Even the DiSEqC switch fits in. At our location this system allows reception of three C band satellites at 40 East, 5 West and 30.5 East, explains Berndt Rosenberger.
A look inside the AVCOM LNB: Only the crossshaped element in the background is rotated. Depending on the 45 turn either linear or circular signals can be received.
shop24 was established as a second string to Rainer Schulzes bow and in 2004 the registered name was changed to E-Commerce Schulz & Knott GbR (satshop24.de). Berndt Rosenberger used to work for Antennen- & Satanlagenbau R. Schulz from 1990 until his retirement. Before that his career had been similar to that of Rainer Schulz. He, too, built his first satellite antenna himself, even though he sourced his first satellite receiver from friends of a friends friend as was the case with so many things in former East Germany. What I did invent so to speak was a rather peculiar way of setting up polar mount antennas, Berndt Rosenberger remembers. We waited for a pitchblack night and then used a tube which we aligned exactly towards the polar star. This meant we had a precise northern alignment and this is how we then erected the antenna mast. With Berndt and Rainer in the background the business embarked on a route of steady success. The first few years were immensely successful. We were able to sell some 500 fully-fledged systems per annum, and we also installed most of them 136 TELE-satellite Global Digital TV Magazine 12-01/201 www.TELE-satellite.com 1
Another innovation of the two satellite experts: The original
LNB rail of this multi-LNB antenna did not have enough space to squeeze in another LNB for reception of HISPASAT at 30 West. But then again, who says you cant extend the rail? Right, but you have to take into account that an extended rail needs a modified shape. As you can see on the picture what they did was use a piece of empty pipe as dummy LNB and attached the HISPASAT LNB in an upward bend. While you cant receive every single transponder, most of them are still available, Berndt Rosenberger says.
ourselves, they remember the initial days of their cooperation. Starting in 1994 business slowed down and they shifted their focus on cable systems in turn. In 2003 they began experimenting with the C band and installed a 1.2m antenna with two LNBs: One for linear signals and the other for circular signals. Two years later the huge 3.66m antenna purchased from satellite wholesaler DOEBIS followed suit. With this new equipment they were able to experiment some more and aim for reception under extreme conditions as well. Of course this also allowed them to gain additional expertise. For C band reception we constructed a special skewing mechanism: Depending on the reception sample either circular or linear polarisation was received. This way a dielectric was not required any longer. For Ku band reception they have some innovations in store as well when it comes to extreme reception conditions: If you use a polar mount antenna this is of particular importance, as polarisations are not always set at a precise 90 angle, Berndt Rosenberger explains the reason behind.
Using the best LNBs, the most suitable receivers and their own inventions for LNB skewing they managed to receive signals from satellites that are far out of footprint at their location. In the meantime, they had worked up a solid reputation in the DXing scene and they still organise a DXer meeting every year. Last year a total of 300 DXers from all over Germany took part, Rainer Schulz who is also known as Ponny on the Internet remembers. Some participants even travelled from Austria, the Netherlands, Poland, the Czech Republic or Hungary to be at our get-together, he adds. Anyone interested in attending next time should mark 11 June 2011 on their calendar. It will be a brilliant chance to have a chat with a top-notch DX professional. Rainer Schulz and Bernd Rosenberger are no longer involved in the day-to-day management of their business. I retired in 2009 and my son Carsten Schulz took over receiver and antenna construction as well as my share in the company. Rainer Schulzs daughter Daniela Knott is the managing director and reveals some inside information. We only sell to end
customers, with our top-selling product being the T90 multi-LNB antenna. Almost 90% of sales are generated with this product alone. Some 5% of sales are with the 1.2m antenna, Daniela Knott adds. Connecting rod motors required for rotating antenna systems also sell well. This product list alone is proof enough for the fact that special requirements are at the heart of the companys business. After all, large dishes as well as multiLNB antennas are only required by satellite enthusiasts looking for more than just your standard fare. For them the company also offers a wide range of accessories such as multi-switches required for simultaneous reception of more than one satellite position. Rainer Schulz and Berndt Rosenberger have chosen the right path and turned they hobby into their profession. They are rewarded not only with a flourishing business, but also with a reputation of being profound DXers willing to help and assist anybody who cares to ask. With their annual DXer meetings they spread their knowledge in the satellite community, which makes them a valuable asset.

The extremely low elevation of just 2.7 is most striking. This means the antenna is at an almost upright position and hardly points above the horizon. As layers close to the earths surface cause more attenuation this makes for very tricky reception, apart from a myriad of physical obstacles like trees which obstruct a clear view to the satellite.

Satellite Dishes in Shanghai

Shanghai is a city with a population of 20 million people and if you decide to take a walk one day and look around youll nd satellite dishes ranging in size from the newest 35cm DTH antennas to all the way up to extremely large 20-meter monstrosities. But lets not forget that ofcially satellite dishes are prohibited in China. Hong Bo, born and raised in Shanghai and also an enthusiastic HDTV satellite fan, took us on a small tour of Shanghais world of satellite antennas.
Shanghai
Hong Bo, who uses the nickname Homeboy in the Internet, rst took us southwest about 20 km from downtown Shanghai. The immense satellite antennas of Shanghais Xinzhuang satellite station are located right next to the RT market shopping center. Former US President Richard Nixon brought those two 20-meter dishes with him in 1972, explained Hong Bo who then conrmed that these two antennas are used by the Chinese military. But a number of smaller dish antennas are located alongside the two large
dishes. These are used to uplink Shanghais local TV channels to CHINASAT 6 at 115 east, explains Hong Bo. Using Shanghais elevated roadways that at many intersections tend to be stacked on top of each other, we continued our tour with a stop at one of Chinas most modern and sophisticated walled-in residential areas: Mandarine City in western Shanghai.

Many of them are from Japan and Korea and naturally they want to be able to see TV from home. Wang Yinchung erected a collection of satellite antennas on top of one of the apartment buildings and installed all of the distribution components in
the elevator control room. Using original receivers from Japan and Korea (provider: Skylife), he takes all of the desired channels and routes them into the cable system of the apartment complex. This, of course, begs the question, what can an individual person do if they want to install a satellite system? Our satellite guide Hong Bo referred us to Hang Hao. He is one of those

But how do these people know who to contact if they want a dish installed? You wont find an ad for an installer in any magazine or newspaper or even in the Internet. That all happens by word of mouth, explains Hang Hao, A sat-
isfied customer will tell his friend and that person will tell another, and so on. We asked Hang Hao how he managed to get into this business: I installed my own first dish back in 2000. Back then it was a 60cm antenna for APSTAR 2A reception at 76.5 east. In the meantime, Hang Hao has become a full time installer. I install about 100 systems every month, that is, dish, LNB, receiver and mounting assembly.
The uplink dishes for
Shanghais local TV channels can be seen from the shopping malls parking lot.
Mandarine Citys
Entrance gate
He tells us that 90% of his customers opt for 60cm antennas while the remaining 10% choose 100 cm dishes. AGILA is the favorite for my mostly foreign customers since mostly English-language channels can be found there, says Hang Hao. If there arent any shops around where you can get satellite products, how does Hang Hao get his hands on the materials he needs? He tells us that he buys them directly from the manufacturers that are for the most part in Shenzhen in Chinas south. But this only works for those who buy in large quantities like Hang Hao. Theres another source when smaller quantities are involved: That would be the Electronic Market on Qinyiang Road right by
the Baoshan Metro station of lines 3 and 4, adds our satellite guide Hong Bo. So naturally our next stop takes us to this market. Here in a maze of streets and shops where youll find numerous visitors walking among an uncounted number of shops, it didnt take long for us to find one that was selling satellite dishes. In this case it was the small 35cm antennas for receiving the Chinese DTH satellites. We also found different receiver brands in another shop. Seek and yee shall find what youre looking for in Shanghai; you can either have your system installed by a professional like Hang Hao or you can choose to install it yourself. You just have to find all the necessary hardware in Shanghais Electronic Market. 143
