<strong>TELE</strong>-satélite fue fundada en 1981<br />
y hoy es la revista comercial más<br />
vieja, más gran<strong>de</strong> y la leída por<br />
la mayoría <strong>de</strong>l mundo. <strong>TELE</strong>satélite<br />
es consultada por más <strong>de</strong><br />
350.000 profesionales <strong>de</strong> la TV<br />
digital alre<strong>de</strong>dor <strong>de</strong>l mundo y está<br />
disponible ambas formas impresa<br />
y en línea.<br />

Estimados Lectores,<br />
Esta vez <strong>TELE</strong>-satélite dio el Premio a la Innovación a un producto que esta realmente<br />
“ en el otro lado “. Normalmente <strong>TELE</strong>-satélite se enfoca en los receptores y no en los<br />
transmisores. <strong>Así</strong>, ¿por qué el cambio? ¡Porque con IPTV - la TV vía Internet - está<br />
empezando a <strong>de</strong>splegar una nueva era ! ¿Por qué es eso?<br />
Echemos una mirada más íntima a la tecnología <strong>de</strong> la recepción: no le importa si la<br />
recepción es por satélite, terrestre o cable: había siempre dos lados en la tecnología<br />
- un transmisor y un receptor. No importaba<br />
si la señal <strong>de</strong> la TV estuviera enviada<br />
inalámbricamente, esto es, transmitida vía<br />
satélite o terrestre, o a través <strong>de</strong> un cable<br />
como en una red <strong>de</strong> TV <strong>de</strong> cable, cada canal<br />
tenía que ser transmitido simultáneamente y<br />
entonces seleccionado por el sintonizador en<br />
el receptor.<br />
Pero este principio básico no es verda<strong>de</strong>ro<br />
para IPTV: el transmisor <strong>de</strong> IPTV sólo envía<br />
el programa específico que el receptor <strong>de</strong>l<br />
otro extremo ha pedido. ¡No hay ya ningún<br />
sintonizador! Al principio al mirar esto no<br />
tiene que ser algo <strong>de</strong> gran importancia pero<br />
<strong>de</strong>spués <strong>de</strong> echar una segunda mirada se<br />
compren<strong>de</strong> que un receptor <strong>de</strong> IPTV es <strong>de</strong><br />
lejos mucho menos caro. Un receptor <strong>de</strong><br />
IPTV es un receptor sin sintonizador. Algunos<br />
fabricantes incluso le dieron nombre estos<br />
receptores “ receptor sin sintonizador “; los<br />
componentes restantes <strong>de</strong> un receptor <strong>de</strong><br />
IPTV son casi idénticos a aquéllos que pue<strong>de</strong>n<br />
encontrarse en cada receptor <strong>de</strong> satélite,<br />
terrestre o receptor <strong>de</strong>l cable.<br />
Los receptores sin sintonizador también quieren <strong>de</strong>cir algo más: ¡no hay ninguna<br />
antena! El espectador siempre es responsable <strong>de</strong> los costes <strong>de</strong> montar una antena<br />
apropiada sea para un plato <strong>de</strong>l satélite o una antena terrestre. Con una red <strong>de</strong>l cable,<br />
el proveedor era responsable <strong>de</strong> los costes involucrados en la instalación <strong>de</strong>l cable<br />
coaxial hasta el salón <strong>de</strong>l espectador. Pero el proveedor podía <strong>de</strong>spués recuperar estos<br />
costes a través <strong>de</strong>l cargo mensual que el espectador tenía que pagar por el servicio<br />
<strong>de</strong>l cable. En otras palabras, los costos <strong>de</strong> la recepción siempre se ponían <strong>de</strong>l lado <strong>de</strong><br />
los espectadores.<br />
Con IPTV estos costes han <strong>de</strong>saparecido en su mayor parte. Una conexión <strong>de</strong> Internet<br />
es consi<strong>de</strong>rada normal como lo es hoy una conexión eléctrica. <strong>TELE</strong>-satélite nunca<br />
discutió cómo proporcionar a un receptor la energía; ¡era obvio! Y estos días está<br />
también seguro <strong>de</strong> asumir que cada espectador <strong>de</strong> TV tiene una conexión <strong>de</strong> Internet.<br />
No hay ninguna necesidad <strong>de</strong> preocuparse por cosas que son obvias. Si se pue<strong>de</strong><br />
asumir que cada casa tiene una conexión <strong>de</strong> Internet, esto significa que la IPTV se ha<br />
vuelto una manera la alternativa barata para mirar la TV. Y esto también es verdad<br />
para los proveedores <strong>de</strong> programas que tienen que consi<strong>de</strong>rar esto también.<br />
Reconocidamente, ya que nosotros todavía estamos al principio <strong>de</strong> las fases <strong>de</strong> acceso<br />
generalizado a Internet <strong>de</strong> gran velocidad, la realidad es que nosotros no hemos ido<br />
bastante lejos todavía, pero está claro que el <strong>de</strong>sarrollo está entrando esta dirección.<br />
Con la transmisión IPTV <strong>de</strong> un canal así como la recepción <strong>de</strong> ese canal es tan barata,<br />
cualquiera pue<strong>de</strong> ser potencialmente un director <strong>de</strong> programación.<br />
Ahora se está volviéndose a vivir la interminable libertad que la TV <strong>de</strong>l satélite nos<br />
dio hace unas décadas, y que ahora en la edad <strong>de</strong> la IPTV pone a disposición <strong>de</strong><br />
los programadores una libertad interminable: cualquiera pue<strong>de</strong> ser un director <strong>de</strong><br />
programación programación y se pue<strong>de</strong>n transmitir los tantos canales como como ellos ellos quieran. quieran. ¡No hay<br />
ninguna limitación!<br />

TEST REPORT<br />
IPTV Gateway<br />
NetUP DVB-IP Gateway 4x<br />
¡Ahora También Se Pue<strong>de</strong><br />
Ser un Director <strong>de</strong> TV!<br />
Hasta hace unos años TV vía Internet o Ethernet estaba<br />
más allá <strong>de</strong> nuestra imaginación. Hoy, sin embargo, la<br />
alta capacidad los cables <strong>de</strong> fibra óptica y las continuas<br />
conexiones <strong>de</strong> la banda ancha hacen que halla vuelto<br />
una realidad. La IPTV es una opción para muchos y<br />
en estos días compite contra el satélite y televisión<br />
<strong>de</strong> cable. ¿Se ha pensado alguna vez sobre cómo son<br />
realmente distribuidos los contenidos vía IPTV?<br />
Para contestar esa pregunta<br />
nosotros mirábamos el<br />
Gateway <strong>de</strong> DVB-IP ofrecido<br />
por NetUP que es el sistema<br />
i<strong>de</strong>al para pequeños sistemas<br />
como hoteles o hospitales,<br />
pero también para usuarios<br />
privados o quien sabe, para<br />
todo aquel que quiera distribuir<br />
contenidos <strong>de</strong> TV en<br />
Internet.<br />
El Gateway DVB-IP 4x <strong>de</strong><br />
NetUP es un producto profesional<br />
que significa que toda<br />
la tecnología se con<strong>de</strong>nsa en<br />
una caja <strong>de</strong> rack <strong>de</strong> 19 pulgadas.<br />
A<strong>de</strong>más, los interfaces<br />
<strong>de</strong> conexión más importantes<br />
se localizan en los dos paneles<br />
<strong>de</strong>lantero y trasero que<br />
es otra indicación clara que<br />
este Gateway no es para la<br />
presentación al lado <strong>de</strong> la TV,<br />
sino que <strong>de</strong>be instalarse más<br />
bien en un armario especializado<br />
<strong>de</strong> servidores o en un<br />
rack <strong>de</strong> 19 pulgadas profesional.<br />
En el panel <strong>de</strong>lantero se<br />
encuentra un LCD <strong>de</strong> dos<br />
líneas muestra el modo<br />
actual <strong>de</strong> funcionamiento<br />
y proporciona una valiosa<br />
ayuda durante la instalación<br />
inicial <strong>de</strong> las interfaces <strong>de</strong><br />
red.<br />
Hablando <strong>de</strong> ello, hay un<br />
total <strong>de</strong> seis conectores <strong>de</strong><br />
red que pue<strong>de</strong>n programarse<br />
individualmente. Encima <strong>de</strong><br />
12 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
estas conexiones hay 10 LEDs<br />
y cinco botones a su <strong>de</strong>recha<br />
que permiten directamente<br />
el mando <strong>de</strong> la unidad.<br />
Aparte <strong>de</strong> los conectores<br />
<strong>de</strong> red arriba expresados<br />
hay dos conectores USB<br />
para enganchar sistemas <strong>de</strong><br />
almacenamiento multimedia<br />
externos y un puerto <strong>de</strong><br />
RS-232 para publicar la información<br />
<strong>de</strong> estado en una<br />
consola externa.<br />
Al mirar el panel trasero<br />
nos sorpren<strong>de</strong>n las cuatro<br />
entradas <strong>de</strong> IF <strong>de</strong> satélite.<br />
Son necesarias para recibir<br />
las señales que posteriormente<br />
se procesarán.<br />

NetUP DVB-IP Gateway 4x<br />
Facilidad perfecta <strong>de</strong> uso, combinado<br />
con una tecnología fiable - i<strong>de</strong>al para los<br />
proveedores <strong>de</strong> IPTV.<br />
Como nosotros está<br />
hablando sobre un dispositivo<br />
profesional no nos<br />
resulta sorpren<strong>de</strong>nte que<br />
cada entrada <strong>de</strong> sintonizador<br />
esté provista con una ranura<br />
<strong>de</strong> Interfaz Común especializada.<br />
Esto significa que<br />
pue<strong>de</strong>n colocarse un máximo<br />
<strong>de</strong> cuatro módulos <strong>de</strong> CI que<br />
pue<strong>de</strong> usarse en relación<br />
con este equipo que también<br />
viene con un interruptor<br />
mecánico <strong>de</strong> alimentación.<br />
Todos los componentes<br />
alar<strong>de</strong>an <strong>de</strong> un calidad<br />
extraordinaria, la unidad<br />
<strong>de</strong> alimentación <strong>de</strong> potencia<br />
integrada permite que la<br />
mayoría <strong>de</strong> los competidores<br />
exclusivamente se pongan<br />
pálidos por la comparación.<br />
El modulador viene con 2 GB
<strong>de</strong> memoria <strong>de</strong> interna y un<br />
disco duro <strong>de</strong> 1 TB.<br />
El uso profesional en la<br />
mayoría <strong>de</strong> los casos significa<br />
el uso permanente, por lo que<br />
un número suficiente <strong>de</strong> ventiladores<br />
pue<strong>de</strong>n generar un<br />
firme flujo <strong>de</strong> aire fresco. Sin<br />
éstos, muchos <strong>de</strong> los componentes<br />
sensibles se arriesgarían<br />
a tener un exceso <strong>de</strong><br />
calor, qué finalmente produciría<br />
el fracaso.<br />
Aquí también, es más evi<strong>de</strong>nte<br />
que este Gateway no<br />
esta diseñado para el uso<br />
en el salón, pues los ventiladores<br />
crean un ruido que<br />
<strong>fácil</strong>mente podría igualar al<br />
<strong>de</strong> una aspiradora normal.<br />
Mirar la TV al lado <strong>de</strong> este<br />
equipo es casi imposible,<br />
pero como mencionamos<br />
previamente, este Gateway<br />
<strong>de</strong>be colocarse sin embargo<br />
en un cuarto especializados<br />
para servidores, dón<strong>de</strong> los<br />
ventiladores puedan zumbar<br />
alegremente.<br />
El fabricante envía este<br />
sistema con un rango completo<br />
<strong>de</strong> accesorios <strong>de</strong> montaje<br />
para que la caja pueda<br />
encajarse en cualquier rack<br />
normal <strong>de</strong> 19 pulgadas o en<br />
un armario <strong>de</strong> servidores.<br />
El manual que viene con el<br />
equipo tiene un diseño muy<br />
amistoso para el usuario y<br />
<strong>de</strong>be contestar cualquier pregunta<br />
que podría levantarse<br />
en la vida.<br />
Antes <strong>de</strong> po<strong>de</strong>r acce<strong>de</strong>r al<br />
Gateway por primera vez se<br />
■<br />
El diagrama <strong>de</strong> una red <strong>de</strong> IPTV<br />
<strong>de</strong>be colocar una conexion <strong>de</strong><br />
red.<br />
Con este fin se conecta<br />
directamente a una <strong>de</strong> las<br />
seis interfaces <strong>de</strong> red disponibles<br />
cualquier PC o un<br />
enrutador, y se asigna una<br />
dirección <strong>de</strong> IP. Los cinco<br />
botones en el panel <strong>de</strong>lantero<br />
juegan un papel importante<br />
aquí, así como el visualizador<br />
LCD.<br />
En teoría, se pue<strong>de</strong>n poner<br />
direcciones IP para tres<br />
conectores <strong>de</strong> red directamente<br />
en la unidad; por<br />
simplicidad nosotros recomendamos<br />
empezar con un<br />
puerto y tratar <strong>de</strong> seguir con<br />
los otros cinco a través <strong>de</strong> la<br />
interfaz <strong>de</strong> web que se está<br />
disponible una vez el se ha<br />
colocado una IP en el primer<br />
puerto. De esta manera<br />
todos los ajustes pue<strong>de</strong>n<br />
seleccionarse en el navegador<br />
Web <strong>de</strong>l PC.<br />
En cuanto se ha asignado<br />
la primera dirección <strong>de</strong> IP<br />
a una entrada, todos lo que<br />
se necesita hacer es entrar<br />
esta dirección en la línea <strong>de</strong><br />
dirección <strong>de</strong> su navegador y<br />
acce<strong>de</strong>r al servidor <strong>de</strong> web<br />
incorporado.<br />
Se necesita entrar correctamente<br />
el nombre <strong>de</strong> usuario<br />
y su contraseña que están<br />
asignadas por <strong>de</strong>fecto a los<br />
valores normales. Nosotros<br />
recomendamos poner un<br />
nombre <strong>de</strong> usuario y contraseña<br />
individual para asegurarse<br />
que la entrada está<br />
fuertemente protegida <strong>de</strong>l<br />
acceso <strong>de</strong>sautorizado.<br />
La interfaz Web es suma-<br />
mente <strong>fácil</strong> usar y se parece<br />
MS Windows, por lo que la<br />
mayoría estarán familiarizados<br />
con él. En el menú principal<br />
hay cinco sub-menús<br />
(Archivos, IPTV, Administración<br />
<strong>de</strong>l Sistema, Configuración<br />
<strong>de</strong>l Sistema y Estado<br />
<strong>de</strong>l Sistema), con los <strong>de</strong> configuración<br />
y administración<br />
que están sobresaltados, por<br />
supuesto.<br />
Con la ayuda <strong>de</strong> este interfaz<br />
Web pue<strong>de</strong>n controlarse<br />
separadamente los seis<br />
puertos <strong>de</strong> red integrados, y<br />
también pue<strong>de</strong>n visualizarse<br />
los datos <strong>de</strong> uso para cada<br />
uno <strong>de</strong> ellos.<br />
En caso <strong>de</strong> que se esté<br />
preguntando por qué están<br />
disponibles un total <strong>de</strong> seis<br />
puertos Ethernet, cuando con<br />
un solo funcionaria, la res-<br />

puesta es bastante simple:<br />
Con varios puertos <strong>de</strong> Ethernet<br />
es posible distribuir los<br />
canales en los varios niveles<br />
diferentes, y los contenidos<br />
multimedia podrían proporcionar<br />
canales que no estén<br />
disponibles en otro nivel <strong>de</strong><br />
distribución.<br />
<strong>Así</strong> entonces es posible<br />
crear hasta seis paquetes <strong>de</strong><br />
canales diferentes que todos<br />
son recibidos y procesados<br />
por la misma entrada, pero<br />
pue<strong>de</strong> componerse <strong>de</strong> canales<br />
completamente diferentes<br />
y qué pue<strong>de</strong>n distribuirse,<br />
comercializarse o pue<strong>de</strong>n<br />
ven<strong>de</strong>rse individualmente.<br />
A<strong>de</strong>más, a cada adaptador<br />
<strong>de</strong> red se le pue<strong>de</strong> asignar una<br />
IP diferente que dirija a los<br />
niveles que estén disponibles<br />
<strong>de</strong>ntro <strong>de</strong> la misma arquitectura<br />
<strong>de</strong> la red. Hay también<br />
finalmente, la pregunta sobre<br />
el ancho <strong>de</strong> banda puesto<br />
que los contenidos <strong>de</strong> alta<br />
<strong>de</strong>finición pue<strong>de</strong> llamar para<br />
la distribución a<strong>de</strong>lante más<br />
<strong>de</strong> una conexión.<br />
Nuestro dispositivo <strong>de</strong> la<br />
prueba vino con cuatro sintonizadores<br />
<strong>de</strong> DVB-S2 con los<br />
que nosotros pudimos recibir,<br />
procesar y distribuir las<br />
señales <strong>de</strong>l satélite.<br />
Dependiendo <strong>de</strong> las especificaciones<br />
<strong>de</strong>l cliente, sin<br />
embargo, el NetUP DVB-IP<br />
Entrada 4x también podrá<br />
recibir DVB-T, DVB-C y señales<br />
analógicas, con módulos<br />
<strong>de</strong> la recepción que se<br />
intercambian similar a los<br />
componentes <strong>de</strong> hardware<br />
Plug&Play.<br />
El fabricante está trabajando<br />
actualmente en llevar<br />
a cabo estas características,<br />
porque ahora mismo sólo<br />
están disponibles los sintonizadores<br />
<strong>de</strong> satélite.<br />

que no están disponibles<br />
por estar diseñado como<br />
equipo profesional y por lo<br />
tanto el alcance es diferente<br />
al <strong>de</strong> cada aplicación.<br />
Con el Gateway NetUP<br />
DVB-IP 4x es posible colocar<br />
parámetros <strong>de</strong> LOF individuales<br />
colocados para cada<br />
sintonizador, así como <strong>de</strong>finir<br />
la configuración <strong>de</strong> DiSEqC<br />
simple y activar las señal <strong>de</strong><br />
22 kHz. A<strong>de</strong>más se necesita<br />
codificar la frecuencia <strong>de</strong>l<br />
transpon<strong>de</strong>dor requerida, la<br />
proporción <strong>de</strong>l símbolo para<br />
usar y la polarización, acabando<br />
con la alimentación<br />

La selección <strong>de</strong>l canal viene<br />

técnicas (PID audio y<br />

Si se proporciona más <strong>de</strong><br />
un PID (en caso <strong>de</strong> las huellas<br />
<strong>de</strong> audio múltiples, por ejemplo)<br />
se pue<strong>de</strong> <strong>de</strong>finir qué PID<br />
será distribuido. Es entonces<br />
es necesario asignar una IP<br />
multicast, un puerto y una <strong>de</strong><br />
las seis interfaces Ethernet<br />
para cada canal seleccionado.<br />
También es absolutamente<br />
posible que un canal pue<strong>de</strong><br />
asignarse a más <strong>de</strong> una<br />

para distribuirlo en varios<br />
niveles.<br />

<strong>de</strong> EPG <strong>de</strong> los canales recibidos<br />
que se reenvía más allá<br />
con un proceso middleware<br />
y <strong>de</strong> esta manera proporcionarlo<br />
a los receptores IPTV.<br />
En nuestro ajuste <strong>de</strong><br />
prueba nosotros escogimos<br />
enviar las señales <strong>de</strong><br />
cuatro satélites diferentes<br />
al Gateway. En <strong>de</strong>talle, las<br />
señales vinieron <strong>de</strong> los transpon<strong>de</strong>dores<br />
siguientes: BBC<br />
en ASTRA 28.8° Este, MBC en<br />
NILESAT a 7° Oeste, ORF en<br />
ASTRA 19.2° Este y un cuarto<br />
transpon<strong>de</strong>dor <strong>de</strong>l TURKSAT<br />
a 42° Este.<br />
Incluso probamos <strong>de</strong> llevar<br />
a los sintonizadores al límite<br />
con una señal bastante débil<br />
<strong>de</strong> ABS1 a 75° Este que los<br />
cuatro pudieron reenviar por<br />
completo el vi<strong>de</strong>o y el audio.<br />
¡Nosotros simplemente no<br />
podríamos esperar más!<br />
En total nosotros llegamos<br />
a unos impresionantes 32<br />
canales <strong>de</strong> TV que se unieron<br />
en un multicast que usaba la<br />
dirección IP 224.200.200.201.<br />
Nosotros también podríamos<br />
<strong>de</strong>jar el puerto con 1234, por<br />
ejemplo, y distribuír canales<br />
individuales que usando<br />
direcciones IP separadas<br />
como 224.200.200.202,<br />
224.200.200.203 y así sucesivamente.<br />
En el extremo <strong>de</strong>l receptor<br />
nosotros usamos un AzBox<br />
Ultra HD (ver el informe <strong>de</strong><br />
prueba en la edición anterior<br />
<strong>de</strong> <strong>TELE</strong>-satélite <strong>de</strong><br />
08-09/2010), qué actualmente<br />
es uno <strong>de</strong> los muy<br />
pocos receptores capaz <strong>de</strong><br />
procesar IPTV junto a DVB-<br />
S2. Ajustar el AzBox para<br />
recibir los canales <strong>de</strong> nuestra<br />
propia red <strong>de</strong> IPTV fue<br />
muy <strong>fácil</strong> y nosotros pudimos<br />
visualizar una lista <strong>de</strong> 32<br />
canales en muy poco tiempo.<br />
No tiene ningún sentido el<br />
ajustar una red <strong>de</strong> IPTV para<br />
un solo receptor cliente, es<br />
por lo que nosotros extendimos<br />
nuestra instalación para<br />
incluir varios PCs en nuestra<br />
oficina editorial para el<br />
acceso a IPTV.<br />
El software reproductor VLC<br />
(disponible en www.vi<strong>de</strong>o-<br />
lan.org para varios sistemas<br />
operativos) ha resultado ser<br />
una solución hábil para la<br />
recepción <strong>de</strong> IPTV en el PC, y<br />
no importa cómo duro fuese<br />
lo que nosotros intentamos,<br />
no había ninguna manera<br />
<strong>de</strong> que nosotros pudiéramos<br />
hacer vacilar al Gateway. No<br />
hubo incluso <strong>de</strong> hecho, ni el<br />
más ligero pixelado. Esto significó<br />
que nosotros teníamos<br />
que inventar una imaginable<br />
prueba que hiciera más duro<br />
el uso <strong>de</strong>l Gateway. ¿Qué hay<br />
sobre transmitir la TV británica<br />
a un colega en Thailandia<br />
vía IPTV?<br />
Lo primero que hicimos<br />
nosotros fue el preparar una<br />
conexión <strong>de</strong> VPN usando dos<br />
enrutadores Netgear en cada<br />
extremo antes <strong>de</strong> encen<strong>de</strong>r<br />
el Gateway <strong>de</strong> IPTV. Sólo<br />
18 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
habían pasado unos segundos<br />
cuando nuestro colega<br />
que nos avisó por Skype y<br />
nos hizo saber que nuestro<br />
esfuerzo tuvo el éxito.<br />
Lo que merece la pena<br />
y nosotros tenemos que<br />
mencionar en esta fase que<br />
nosotros tenemos un acceso<br />
<strong>de</strong> Internet muy rápido en<br />
nuestra oficina que ofrece<br />
una velocidad <strong>de</strong> subida <strong>de</strong><br />
algo más <strong>de</strong> 20 MBit/s. Algo<br />
menos no serían suficiente<br />
para unos contenidos en alta<br />
resolución. De todos modos,<br />
nuestro compañero tailandés<br />
se asombró por la calidad<br />
audio y vi<strong>de</strong>o así como la<br />
velocidad <strong>de</strong> los paquetes <strong>de</strong><br />
IPTV que nosotros le enviábamos.<br />
Gracias a l soporte <strong>de</strong><br />
■<br />
1. Hay datos estadísticos precisos<br />
para cada puerto <strong>de</strong> Ethernet<br />
2. Asignación <strong>de</strong> la ruta <strong>de</strong> la red<br />
3. También está disponible un servidor<br />
<strong>de</strong> MySQL así como un servidor<br />
<strong>de</strong> tiempo<br />
4. Los muchos contenidos <strong>de</strong> VOD<br />
pue<strong>de</strong>n guardarse en el disco duro<br />
incorporado <strong>de</strong> 1 TB<br />
DVB-S2 el Gateway no sólo<br />
es capaz <strong>de</strong> recibir y distribuir<br />
señales <strong>de</strong> SDTV<br />
sino que también <strong>de</strong> HDTV<br />
MPEG4/H.264. Nosotros no<br />
<strong>de</strong>scubrimos ninguna falta al<br />
reproducir contenidos HDTV<br />
vía IPTV. A<strong>de</strong>más, el Gateway<br />
<strong>de</strong>scubre automáticamente y<br />
ajusta a los parámetros técnicos<br />
como la modulación y la<br />
corrección <strong>de</strong>l error que son<br />
una característica que nosotros<br />
no po<strong>de</strong>mos alabar bastante<br />
favorablemente.<br />

DVB-IP se complementa más<br />
allá por varias opciones <strong>de</strong><br />
asignación <strong>de</strong> rutas, el disco<br />
duro integrado <strong>de</strong> 1 TB así<br />
como una característica <strong>de</strong><br />
actualización <strong>de</strong>l software<br />
muy amistosa al usuario.<br />
Todo lo que se requiere<br />
es <strong>de</strong>scargarse el último<br />
Firmware <strong>de</strong>l sitio webs <strong>de</strong>l<br />
fabricante y entonces transferirlo<br />
al Gateway NetUP<br />
DVB-IP 4x vía la red usando<br />
FTP. Aparece inmediatamente<br />
en el menú <strong>de</strong> actualización,<br />
completa con el<br />
número <strong>de</strong> la versión exacto,<br />
y pue<strong>de</strong> cargarse e instalarse<br />
con un simple clic. Los seis<br />
puertos <strong>de</strong> Ethernet son compatibles<br />
LAN 10/100/1000<br />
Mbit por el que ellos soportan<br />
el máximo actual que es técnicamente<br />
factible. El propio<br />
Gateway es capaz <strong>de</strong> procesar<br />
simultáneamente hasta<br />
cuatro transpon<strong>de</strong>dores con<br />
un ancho <strong>de</strong> banda global <strong>de</strong><br />
240 MB/s.<br />
Con sus dimensiones <strong>de</strong><br />
430x44x411 encaja exactamente<br />
en un rack normal<br />
<strong>de</strong> 19 pulgadas normal o en<br />
un armario <strong>de</strong> servidores,<br />
y siendo su peso enorme<br />
<strong>de</strong> 11.5 kg (principalmente<br />
<strong>de</strong>bido a su fuente <strong>de</strong> alimentación<br />
<strong>de</strong> alta potencia suministrada<br />
en la unidad). Como<br />
se esperaría <strong>de</strong> un equipo profesional,<br />
el Gateway automáticamente<br />
el reinicia <strong>de</strong>spués<br />
<strong>de</strong> un corte <strong>de</strong> alimentación<br />
e ingresa en el modo que<br />
estaba trabajando antes <strong>de</strong>l<br />
corte. El rango <strong>de</strong> voltajes <strong>de</strong><br />
90 a 240 VAC y 47 a 63 Hz en<br />
que pue<strong>de</strong> trabajar la fuente<br />
<strong>de</strong> alimentación permite uso<br />
global <strong>de</strong>l Gateway. Cuando<br />
está funcionando el Gateway<br />
NetUP DVB-IP 4x consume<br />
aproximadamente 100 W <strong>de</strong><br />
potencia.<br />
Mientras que el Gateway<br />
NetUP DVB-IP 4x es un componente<br />
que para muchos<br />
pue<strong>de</strong> estar diseñado para<br />
IPTV conectado a una red <strong>de</strong><br />
computadoras, pue<strong>de</strong> usarse<br />
también por supuesto para<br />
su propia causa, como nosotros<br />
hiciéramos en nuestro<br />
sistema <strong>de</strong> prueba. Es responsable<br />
<strong>de</strong> procesar y convertir<br />
una señal <strong>de</strong> DVB en<br />
un formato compatible IPTV<br />
y así sirve como una interfaz<br />
entre señales DVB y una red<br />
<strong>de</strong> IPTV.<br />
Los receptores <strong>de</strong>l cliente,<br />
por otro lado, simplemente<br />
cambian entre los canales<br />
y paquetes que usan direccionamientos<br />
IPs y puertos<br />
diferentes. Con este planteamiento<br />
en la mente el<br />
Gateway podría actuar como<br />
un acoplador conveniente<br />
para los abastecer señales a<br />
varios monitores <strong>de</strong>ntro <strong>de</strong><br />
un edificio, y naturalmente,<br />
distribuir las señales <strong>de</strong> satélite,<br />
cable o terrestres vía<br />
una red o Internet.<br />
Hablando <strong>de</strong> esto, todavía<br />
esta por ver si nuestro colega<br />
tailandés nos permitirá <strong>de</strong>sconectar<br />
nuestra entrada <strong>de</strong><br />
prueba, puesto que parece<br />
haberse vuelto un adicto<br />
<strong>de</strong> la BBC en el entretanto.<br />
Él se opone fuertemente a<br />
nosotros que finalicemos la<br />
prueba, puesto que los canales<br />
<strong>de</strong> la BBC que él pue<strong>de</strong><br />
recibir en este momento no<br />
están por otra parte disponibles<br />
en Thailandia.<br />
En la mayoría <strong>de</strong> los casos,<br />
sin embargo, el Gateway <strong>de</strong><br />
DVB-IP se usará como un<br />
componente íntegro en una<br />
red <strong>de</strong> IPTV mucho más com-<br />
20 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
pleja. Con este fin el Gateway<br />
se conecta a un middleware<br />
que crea un OSD gráfico<br />
específico por proveedor y<br />
presenta los canales procesados<br />
para que sean <strong>de</strong> <strong>fácil</strong><br />
uso y visualmente con un<br />
diseño agradable.<br />
Los operadores pue<strong>de</strong>n<br />
agregar incluso VOD (vi<strong>de</strong>o<br />
sobre <strong>de</strong>manda), teniendo en<br />
cuenta otras características<br />
específicas para el cliente<br />
que hacen un sistema perfecto<br />
para crear una red <strong>de</strong><br />
IPTV para hoteles, hospitales,<br />
edificios <strong>de</strong> apartamento<br />
o campos similares <strong>de</strong> aplicación.<br />
Nosotros <strong>de</strong>bemos agregar<br />
que en esta fase el NetUP<br />
no sólo ofrece su Gateway<br />
como un solo componente,<br />
sino que también unos sistemas<br />
<strong>de</strong> IPTV completos<br />
para dar soluciones llaves<br />
en mano. Ésto pue<strong>de</strong> incluir<br />
el middleware correspondiente<br />
y el VOD, aparte <strong>de</strong> la<br />
entrada al centro <strong>de</strong> la red.<br />
El IPTV Combine 4x es uno<br />
<strong>de</strong> estos sistemas, y aquí<br />
<strong>de</strong> nuevo nosotros po<strong>de</strong>mos<br />
<strong>de</strong>cir con la convicción que<br />
el fabricante no ofrece las<br />
soluciones sin entusiasmo:<br />
Ambos los Gateway DVB-IP<br />
4x y el IPTV Combine 4x con<br />
el middleware incorporado<br />
están basados en exactamente<br />
el mismo hardware.<br />
<strong>Así</strong> que si un cliente ya opera<br />
el Gateway DVB-IP 4x y necesita<br />
actualizar su sistema<br />
a IPTV Combine 4x con el<br />
middleware incorporado y el<br />
VOD todo lo que él necesita<br />
hacer es una compra <strong>de</strong> la<br />
extensión <strong>de</strong>l software para<br />
abrir toda la Confabulación<br />
4x mágicamente sin tener<br />
que cambiar un solo componente<br />
<strong>de</strong>l hardware.<br />
Esta opción <strong>de</strong> actualización<br />
también es una <strong>de</strong><br />
las razones por qué cada<br />
Gateway DVB-IP 4x se envía<br />
en primer lugar con un<br />
enorme disco duro <strong>de</strong> 1 TB.<br />
Su capacidad completa sólo<br />
se requiere una vez que el<br />
Gateway se ha convertido<br />
en un IPTV Combine 4x con<br />
VOD, cuando el disco duro<br />
estará lleno con contenidos<br />
multimedia para que los<br />
usuarios puedan mirar siempre<br />
que ellos lo <strong>de</strong>seen.<br />
Nosotros creemos que se<br />
pue<strong>de</strong> recoger <strong>de</strong> lo que se<br />
ha leído hasta ahora que<br />
nosotros nos impresionamos<br />
<strong>de</strong> verdad con el Gateway<br />
En el AzBox HD Ultra la lista <strong>de</strong> canales que consiste en DVB-S y canales<br />
<strong>de</strong> IPTV
DVB-IP 4x durante nuestra<br />
prueba. La calidad <strong>de</strong> diseño<br />
extraordinaria y la perfecta<br />
facilidad <strong>de</strong> uso están entre<br />
sus características importantes.<br />
Mientras se tiene en todo<br />
momento a mano un comprensivo<br />
y bien escrito<br />
manual, probablemente sería<br />
incluso posible preparar y<br />
ejecutar el sistema sin él.<br />
Naturalmente, sólo pue<strong>de</strong>n<br />
encontrarse <strong>de</strong>talles técnicos<br />
y las indirectas útiles en la<br />
documentación escrita.<br />
NetUP usa sintonizado-<br />

Gracias a un total <strong>de</strong> seis<br />
conectores Ethernet pue<strong>de</strong>n<br />
configurarse las salidas libremente<br />
y pue<strong>de</strong>n distribuirse<br />
en niveles diferentes. Un<br />
momento culminante adicional<br />
está oculto <strong>de</strong>trás <strong>de</strong><br />
la característica <strong>de</strong> actualización<br />
conveniente que<br />
pue<strong>de</strong> convertir <strong>fácil</strong>mente<br />

SK60-PWT19 OFFSET DISH OF SVEC<br />
Two-way mountable dish with excellent<br />
performance<br />
Aquéllos que viven<br />
a las latitu<strong>de</strong>s bajas<br />
y medias tien<strong>de</strong>n a<br />
pensar que un plato<br />
<strong>de</strong>l <strong>de</strong>splazamiento<br />
siempre tiene su<br />
LNB apoyado en el<br />
brazo <strong>de</strong>bajo <strong>de</strong>l<br />
reflector. ¿Pero<br />
és realmente un<br />
imperativo el instalar<br />
un plato <strong>de</strong> tal<br />
manera? ¿Qué hay<br />
sobre poner el brazo<br />
sobre el plato? Bien,<br />
no hay ninguna<br />
ley que lo prohíba<br />
pero se hace por<br />
razones prácticas,<br />
esto tiene el sentido<br />
principalmente para<br />
los satélites <strong>de</strong><br />
elevación bastante<br />
baja (por <strong>de</strong>bajo<br />
<strong>de</strong> 30°). Esta razón<br />
práctica mantiene el<br />
reflector tan vertical<br />
como sea posible<br />
para prevenir que<br />
la lluvia, nieve y<br />
suciedad se acumule<br />
encima <strong>de</strong> él.<br />
El plato <strong>de</strong> SVEC montado “ boca<br />
abajo “ : el único montaje en el<br />
mástil que SVEC permite montar<br />
el plato <strong>de</strong> la manera inversa. Esto<br />
sugiere que está diseñado para<br />
áreas cercanas a las regiones <strong>de</strong>l<br />
polo, esto significa en las áreas<br />
dón<strong>de</strong> la elevación para los rangos<br />
<strong>de</strong>l satélite <strong>de</strong>seados <strong>de</strong> 0 a 40<br />
grados. Otro uso está en ciertas<br />
circunstancias, por ejemplo, en un<br />
balcón, poniendo el brazo sobre<br />
el reflector podría ser la solución<br />
cuando el montaje <strong>de</strong>l brazo <strong>de</strong>bajo<br />
<strong>de</strong>l reflector no encaje.
Un plato <strong>de</strong>l <strong>de</strong>splazamiento<br />
recibe la señal <strong>de</strong>l satélite que<br />
viene perpendicularmente a<br />
la superficie <strong>de</strong>l reflector con<br />
un ángulo <strong>de</strong> aproximadamente<br />
25°. Esto significa que<br />
para recibir un satélite a la<br />
elevación <strong>de</strong> 25°, el reflector<br />
se posiciona verticalmente.<br />
Si la elevación es más baja,<br />
el reflector <strong>de</strong>be inclinarse<br />
hacia la tierra lo que pue<strong>de</strong><br />
parecer que algo está equivocado<br />
con nuestro plato. ¿Por<br />
qué no colocarlo al revés y<br />
posicionar el brazo soporte<br />
<strong>de</strong>l LNB sobre el reflector?<br />
¡Eso es exactamente lo que<br />
SVEC ha hecho con su plato<br />
compensado SK60-PWT19 <strong>de</strong><br />
60 centímetro para la banda<br />
Ku!<br />
SVEC nos envió una caja<br />
<strong>de</strong> cartón pulcramente<br />
embalada con dos juegos <strong>de</strong><br />
SK60-PWT19. Todo estaba en<br />
perfectas condiciones. Nosotros<br />
estábamos contentos<br />
pues este plato viene con los<br />
dibujos <strong>de</strong>l montaje y una lista<br />
<strong>de</strong> materiales lo que es muy<br />
útil en el proceso <strong>de</strong>l montaje.<br />
Cada parte <strong>de</strong>l equipo<br />
estaba muy bien terminada y<br />
encajaban con todas las otras<br />
partes sin ningún problema.<br />
El montaje fue nada más que<br />
divertido. Si ya se tiene un<br />
mástil vertical para montar<br />
el plato, todo lo que se necesita<br />
usar es una llave inglesa<br />
<strong>de</strong> 10 mm y un <strong>de</strong>stornillador<br />
Phillips.<br />
Debido al hecho que el<br />
acimut y los ajustes <strong>de</strong>l<br />
ángulo <strong>de</strong> elevación <strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>n<br />
<strong>de</strong> dos tornillos cada uno,<br />
es muy <strong>fácil</strong> <strong>de</strong> girar e inclinar<br />
el plato <strong>fácil</strong>mente. El SK60-<br />
PWT19 no se resbalará hacia<br />
abajo en el mástil aun cuando<br />

algunos casos, ésta podría<br />
ser una <strong>de</strong>sventaja porque el<br />
plato <strong>de</strong>be sentarse en parte<br />
<strong>de</strong> arriba <strong>de</strong>l mástil. <strong>Así</strong> que<br />
si se planea usar el mismo<br />
mástil para una antena <strong>de</strong><br />
satélite y una antena terrestre,<br />
tendría que pensárselo<br />
antes. Normalmente, el plato<br />
<strong>de</strong>l satélite está montado<br />
<strong>de</strong>bajo y la antena yagi terrestre<br />
encima <strong>de</strong> ella para minimizar<br />
el impacto <strong>de</strong>l viento en<br />
el mástil.<br />
Los dibujos <strong>de</strong> montaje que<br />
acompañaron al plato mostraban<br />
dos maneras <strong>de</strong> montaje:<br />
la manera regular con el brazo<br />
<strong>de</strong>l LNB por <strong>de</strong>bajo <strong>de</strong>l reflector<br />
(para una elevación en el<br />
rango <strong>de</strong> 30-90°) y la manera<br />
invertida con el brazo sobre<br />
el reflector (en un rango <strong>de</strong><br />
0-40° <strong>de</strong> elevación). Se pue<strong>de</strong><br />
ver ambas variantes en las<br />
fotografías. El montaje “ al<br />
revés “ parece un poco raro,<br />
pero todo trabaja perfectamente<br />
OK y se asume que la<br />
elevación <strong>de</strong>l satélite está en<br />
el rango <strong>de</strong> 0-40°.<br />
Todavía es más razonable<br />
usar la manera tradicional<br />
para los satélites entre<br />
30-40° porque el reflector<br />
está más vertical, así hay<br />
más bajo riesgo <strong>de</strong> recoger la<br />
lluvia, nieve o polvo en él. Sin<br />
embargo, si le gusta activar la<br />
curiosidad entre sus vecinos,<br />
el montaje inverso pue<strong>de</strong> ser<br />
su opción.<br />
SVEC le da más que un<br />
completo plato. Hay un elemento<br />
adicional con un<br />
pequeño mástil que se pue<strong>de</strong><br />
usar para sujetar el montaje<br />
a una pared, o al tejado. La<br />
cosa interesante es: no necesita<br />
ser una superficie vertical<br />
u horizontal. Si tiene el ajuste<br />
liso <strong>de</strong> 0 a 90° para que se<br />
pueda usar y es lo bastante<br />
sólido para volverse una base<br />
<strong>de</strong> antena.<br />
En nuestras prueba nosotros<br />
usamos uno <strong>de</strong> nuestros<br />
existentes mástiles verticales.<br />
Nosotros medimos primero<br />
que el plato <strong>de</strong> 60 centímetros<br />
<strong>de</strong> un competidor y entonces<br />
pusimos el SK60-PWT19 en el
mástil. Los gráficos cuentan<br />
la historia entera. De hecho<br />
el plato <strong>de</strong> SVEC realizó<br />
muy bien su trabajo. Nosotros<br />
logramos una señal más<br />
fuerte <strong>de</strong> aproximadamente<br />
30<br />
La Opinión <strong>de</strong>l Experto<br />
+<br />
Muy buena calidad <strong>de</strong> fabricación. Amplio<br />
rango <strong>de</strong> elevación: 0~90°. Ajuste fino y <strong>fácil</strong> <strong>de</strong><br />
la elevación y el acimut. Diseño rígido. Una geometría<br />
excelente = una alta ganancia. Los accesorios<br />
adicionales permiten su montaje en la pared<br />
o techo<br />
-<br />
1 dBµV y la misma calidad<br />
<strong>de</strong> señal que el producto <strong>de</strong>l<br />
competidor. Nuestra conclusión,<br />
todo es perfecto con la<br />
geometría <strong>de</strong> la antena <strong>de</strong><br />
este plato <strong>de</strong> SVEC.<br />

Medidor <strong>de</strong> Señal DVB-S2<br />
Horizon HD-S2 Medidor<br />
<strong>de</strong> Señal <strong>de</strong> Satélite<br />
Tan Fácil <strong>de</strong> Usar Como<br />
Su Hermano Mayor<br />
El HD-S2 es el sucesor <strong>de</strong>l HDSM USB PLUS - el medidor <strong>de</strong><br />
señal <strong>de</strong> satélite que <strong>TELE</strong>-satélite presentó en la edición<br />
10-11/2007. En ese momento el medidor no era compatible<br />
con DVB-S2. ¡Pero ahora por supuesto que lo es! Pero éste<br />
no es la única mejora que Horizon ha introducido en su nuevo<br />
medidor. Nos dirigiremos a las noveda<strong>de</strong>s mas a<strong>de</strong>lante en el<br />
informe, pero primero nos gustaría dar énfasis a cuáles son las<br />
características más importantes <strong>de</strong> este medidor - su facilidad<br />
<strong>de</strong> uso, ha sido preservada. Nosotros podríamos repetir el título<br />
<strong>de</strong>l informe en el que nosotros <strong>de</strong>scribimos a su pre<strong>de</strong>cesor: “<br />
Incluso un iniciado total pue<strong>de</strong> usarlo “ ¡todavía mantiene cierto!<br />
Como con todos los medidores<br />
<strong>de</strong> Horizon, cuando se<br />
entrega el HD-S2, su batería<br />
interior necesita ser cargada<br />
aproximadamente 8 horas. La<br />
fuente <strong>de</strong> alimentación está<br />
incorporada por lo que sólo se<br />
necesita conectarlo al enchufe<br />
<strong>de</strong> corriente con el cable<br />
incluido para cargar la batería<br />
interior. También se pue<strong>de</strong><br />
usar el cable para la carga por<br />
DC <strong>de</strong>l enchufe <strong>de</strong>l encen<strong>de</strong>dor<br />
<strong>de</strong>l coche. Cuando está totalmente<br />
cargado, se pue<strong>de</strong> uti-<br />
lizar por un período <strong>de</strong> más <strong>de</strong><br />
8 horas con su carga máxima.<br />
Esto es posible gracias a la<br />
mo<strong>de</strong>rna batería <strong>de</strong> Polímero<br />
<strong>de</strong> Lithio (Li-Po). La batería<br />
es accesible a través <strong>de</strong> una<br />
puerta con un ala flexible en la<br />
parte inferior <strong>de</strong>l medidor, por<br />
lo que es posible reemplazarla<br />
en el futuro o <strong>de</strong>sconectarlo<br />
si se piensa no usar el HD-S2<br />
durante algún tiempo.<br />
El panel frontal dispone <strong>de</strong><br />
dos conectores F, una panta-<br />
<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
lla LCD con luz <strong>de</strong> fondo y un<br />
pequeño teclado con cuatro<br />
botones. Hay una tapa plástica<br />
que protege al tablero<br />
<strong>de</strong>lantero. El medidor está<br />
bien protegido contra las<br />
gotas <strong>de</strong> lluvia cuando usa<br />
en el exterior. El conector F<br />
<strong>de</strong> salida está protegido con<br />
una cubierta <strong>de</strong> caucho por<br />
lo que probablemente no se<br />
usará muy a menudo. La lluvia<br />
no tiene ninguna oportunidad<br />
para conseguir llegar al interior<br />
<strong>de</strong>l instrumento.<br />

HORIZON HD-S2<br />
Sumamente <strong>fácil</strong> <strong>de</strong> usar, con una lista<br />
asombrosa <strong>de</strong> características para los<br />
profesionales<br />
Otra “ capa <strong>de</strong> <strong>de</strong>fensa “<br />
contra el ambiente hostil es<br />
la funda <strong>de</strong> nylon. Tiene un<br />
práctico bolsillo en un lado y<br />
una guía rápida <strong>de</strong> utilización<br />
en la superficie interna <strong>de</strong>l<br />
ala flexible. Las aperturas <strong>de</strong><br />
velcro le permiten conectar<br />
los cables sin sacar el medidor<br />
<strong>de</strong> la bolsa. La correa para el<br />
cuello, <strong>de</strong> longitud ajustable,<br />
le permite tener libres las dos<br />
manos para ocuparse <strong>de</strong> un<br />
plato <strong>de</strong>l satélite.<br />
El uso<br />
Si se está familiarizado con<br />
cualquier otro tipo <strong>de</strong> medidores<br />
<strong>de</strong> Horizon - satélite, cable<br />
o terrestre, realmente no se<br />
necesita mucho tiempo para<br />
<strong>de</strong>ducir cómo funciona su<br />
nuevo HD-S2. La flecha arriba<br />
<strong>de</strong> dirige al menú <strong>de</strong> ajustes<br />
y la flecha abajo al funcionamiento<br />
regular. Los botones<br />
<strong>de</strong> arriba/abajo se usan para<br />
navegar por el menú y los <strong>de</strong><br />
<strong>de</strong>recha/izquierda para seleccionar<br />
la opción/valor para un<br />
elemento dado <strong>de</strong>l menú.
Hay doce artículos <strong>de</strong>l menú<br />
en el Menú <strong>de</strong> Ajustes: Luz <strong>de</strong><br />
fondo (on/off), Sonido <strong>de</strong>l clic<br />
(on/off), Brillo (0 ...15), Contraste<br />
(0 ...50), Reposo (1 ...30<br />
minutos o siempre encendido),<br />
Idioma (inglés, francés,<br />
indonesio, español, italiano,<br />
alemán, holandés, polaco,<br />
sueco, danés, noruego,<br />
croata), Unida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong> RF (el<br />
dBµV/dBm/dBmV), Voltaje <strong>de</strong>l<br />
LNB (0 o 13/18V), Valores por<br />
<strong>de</strong>fecto, Acimut (Mag/Geo),<br />
Versión <strong>de</strong> Firmware y Lista <strong>de</strong><br />
Ciuda<strong>de</strong>s europeas.<br />
La última opción requiere<br />
alguna explicación. El Horizon<br />
HD-S2 pue<strong>de</strong> calcular la<br />
elevación <strong>de</strong>l plato <strong>de</strong> satélite<br />
y el acimut <strong>de</strong> cualquier satélite<br />
dado. Para usarlo, se tiene<br />
que seleccionar su situación.<br />
La opción <strong>de</strong>l menú “ Ciuda<strong>de</strong>s<br />
Europeas” indican qué<br />
región <strong>de</strong> observación está<br />
cargada. Escoger una ciudad<br />
cerca <strong>de</strong> su situación acelera<br />
la velocidad <strong>de</strong>l proceso.<br />
Dependiendo <strong>de</strong> su opción el<br />
36<br />
acimut <strong>de</strong>l plato se calcularán<br />
relacionado al polo geográfico<br />
o magnético.<br />
Cuando todo está fijado <strong>de</strong><br />
acuerdo a nuestras preferencias,<br />
po<strong>de</strong>mos <strong>de</strong>jar el Menú<br />
<strong>de</strong> Ajustes apagando el medi-<br />

dor. Ahora po<strong>de</strong>mos conectar<br />
la salida <strong>de</strong>l LNB al conector <strong>de</strong><br />
ENTRADA en el panel <strong>de</strong>lantero<br />
<strong>de</strong>l HD-S2 y po<strong>de</strong>mos<br />
poner el medidor en operación<br />
con el botón <strong>de</strong> la flecha<br />
abajo. Después <strong>de</strong> la pantalla<br />
bienvenida, el medidor mues-<br />
tra la pantalla <strong>de</strong> la búsqueda<br />
<strong>de</strong> señal. En la parte <strong>de</strong> arriba,<br />
está el nombre <strong>de</strong>l satélite y<br />
<strong>de</strong>bajo una barra <strong>de</strong> fuerza <strong>de</strong><br />
la señal y valor <strong>de</strong> potencia<br />
<strong>de</strong>l canal en dBµV (o las unida<strong>de</strong>s<br />
colocadas en el Menú<br />
<strong>de</strong> Ajustes). Con las flechas<br />
<strong>de</strong>recha/izquierda, se pue<strong>de</strong><br />
cambiar el satélite y una vez<br />
se posicione en el satélite en<br />
el que se está interesado, es<br />
el momento para empezar a<br />
mover el plato.<br />
Mientras hacemos el barrido<br />
con el plato, no se tiene que<br />
mirar el visor <strong>de</strong>l HD-S2<br />
porque genera unos pitidos.<br />
Estos cambian en el diapasón<br />
y la tasa <strong>de</strong> repetición<br />
<strong>de</strong>pendiendo <strong>de</strong> la fuerza <strong>de</strong> la<br />
señal. Es muy <strong>fácil</strong> el <strong>de</strong>scubrir<br />
la posición correcta <strong>de</strong>l plato<br />
sólo escuchando.<br />
En cuanto el medidor sintonice<br />
la señal recibida, aparece<br />
el símbolo <strong>de</strong> un candado en la<br />
pantalla que se muestra como<br />
cerrado con llave y se muestra<br />
una barra adicional. Presenta<br />
la Proporción <strong>de</strong> Error <strong>de</strong><br />
Modulación (MER). Su valor en<br />
dB simplemente se muestra<br />
<strong>de</strong>bajo <strong>de</strong> la barra. El MER es<br />
visualizado con una resolución<br />
<strong>de</strong> 0.1 dB que es precisamente<br />
más que bastante alinear un<br />
plato. Sin embargo, Horizon<br />
hizo algo más. Después<br />
<strong>de</strong> apretar el botón <strong>de</strong> flecha<br />
abajo, nosotros po<strong>de</strong>mos ver
una ampliación (subiendo verticalmente)<br />
<strong>de</strong> la muestra <strong>de</strong><br />
la fuerza <strong>de</strong> la señal y MER.<br />
Las lecturas son ahora aun<br />
más sensibles que antes a los<br />
cambios en la posición <strong>de</strong> la<br />
antena.<br />
Pulsando otra vez flecha<br />
abajo nosotros po<strong>de</strong>mos ver la<br />
Tasa <strong>de</strong> Error <strong>de</strong> Bit (BER) para<br />
señales DVB-S o Proporción<br />
<strong>de</strong> Error <strong>de</strong> Bit Derivada (DER)<br />
para DVB-S2. Si esto no es<br />
bastante, nosotros po<strong>de</strong>mos<br />
■<br />
■<br />
<strong>de</strong>jar la pantalla <strong>de</strong> la búsqueda<br />
<strong>de</strong> señal (con el botón<br />
<strong>de</strong> flecha arriba), y seleccionar<br />
el artículo <strong>de</strong> Espectro en<br />
el menú principal. El Horizon<br />
HD-S2 nos mostrará entonces<br />
una parte <strong>de</strong>l espectro<br />
con el canal bajo prueba en el<br />
centro <strong>de</strong> la pantalla. Sobre el<br />
espectro se presentan varios<br />
parámetros <strong>de</strong> una manera<br />
alterna: frecuencia central,<br />
frecuencia limite, polarización<br />
<strong>de</strong>l LNB y los 22 kHz <strong>de</strong><br />
presencia en la señalada. Con<br />
señales en bajas condiciones<br />
<strong>de</strong> nivel, nosotros <strong>de</strong>bemos<br />
usar el artículo <strong>de</strong>l menú contiguo:<br />
El espectro con un símbolo<br />
<strong>de</strong> la lupa.<br />
Otro artículo <strong>de</strong>l menú interesante<br />
que nosotros po<strong>de</strong>mos<br />
visitar es la Constelación.<br />
Como se pue<strong>de</strong> esperar, se<br />
muestra el diagrama <strong>de</strong> constelación<br />
<strong>de</strong> la señal (QPSK,<br />
8PSK o APSK - <strong>de</strong>pendiendo<br />
<strong>de</strong> la señal). Adicionalmente,<br />
LCD nos muestra la frecuen-<br />
Los contenidos <strong>de</strong> la memoria <strong>de</strong>l HD-S2 <strong>de</strong> Horizon vistos con la aplicación <strong>de</strong> Lector <strong>de</strong> Eventos <strong>de</strong>spués<br />
ejecutar la memorización <strong>de</strong> todos los eventos <strong>de</strong> la señal <strong>de</strong>l satélite HOTBIRD 13E.<br />
La historia <strong>de</strong>l HD-S2 pue<strong>de</strong> exportarse a un archivo <strong>de</strong>l csv y entonces pue<strong>de</strong> importarse a cualquier editor <strong>de</strong><br />
hoja <strong>de</strong> cálculo<br />
cia <strong>de</strong> la señal, la proporción<br />
<strong>de</strong>l símbolo, la modulación,<br />
el FEC, los cambios <strong>de</strong> IQ y<br />
la presencia <strong>de</strong> señal piloto<br />
(DVB-S2).<br />
La lista <strong>de</strong> valores por<br />
<strong>de</strong>fecto <strong>de</strong>l HD-S2 <strong>de</strong> nuestra<br />
muestra <strong>de</strong> prueba contiene<br />
20 transpon<strong>de</strong>dores <strong>de</strong> los 13<br />
satélites europeos más populares.<br />
Las unida<strong>de</strong>s enviadas a<br />
otras regiones, por supuesto,<br />
mostrarán los satélites populares<br />
respectivos. La página<br />
<strong>de</strong> web <strong>de</strong> Horizon www.horizonhge.com<br />
contiene unas<br />
<strong>de</strong>scargas <strong>de</strong> sub-páginas<br />
para el HD-S2, <strong>de</strong> dón<strong>de</strong> en<br />
el futuro se pue<strong>de</strong>n <strong>de</strong>scargar<br />
estas listas específicas rurales.<br />
Sin embargo, si no se está<br />
contento con su lista, también<br />
se pue<strong>de</strong> generar su propia<br />
lista. El usuario pue<strong>de</strong> programar<br />
cuatro transpon<strong>de</strong>dores<br />
comunes para DVB-S y otros<br />
cuatro para DVB-S2. Son<br />
accesibles en el menú <strong>de</strong> Personalización.<br />
Aquí se <strong>de</strong>finen<br />
todos los parámetros necesarios:<br />
La frecuencia <strong>de</strong> LOF,<br />
la señal <strong>de</strong> 22 kHz, frecuencia<br />
<strong>de</strong>l transpon<strong>de</strong>dor, la proporción<br />
<strong>de</strong>l símbolo, FEC (pue<strong>de</strong><br />
<strong>de</strong>jarse como <strong>de</strong>sconocido =<br />
Auto), voltaje <strong>de</strong>l LNB, cambios<br />
<strong>de</strong> IQ y piloto (solo para<br />
DVB-S2; pue<strong>de</strong> <strong>de</strong>jarse como<br />
Auto).<br />
Una característica importante<br />
<strong>de</strong>l medidor es su habilidad<br />
<strong>de</strong> enviar las ór<strong>de</strong>nes <strong>de</strong><br />
DiSEqC. El HD-S2 es compatible<br />
con DiSEqC 1.0 y 1.1.<br />
En artículos separados <strong>de</strong>l<br />
menú, se pue<strong>de</strong> seleccionar<br />
uno <strong>de</strong> los 2 satélites, uno <strong>de</strong><br />
los 4 satélites o uno <strong>de</strong> los 16<br />
satélites. Es más, el Horizon<br />
HD-S2 pue<strong>de</strong> enviar las ór<strong>de</strong>nes<br />
apropiadas para manejar<br />
sistemas <strong>de</strong> LNB Twin en los<br />
que no sólo se selecciona uno<br />
<strong>de</strong> los dos satélites sino también<br />
la sub-banda y polarización.<br />
Desgraciadamente, no<br />
se pue<strong>de</strong> usar el HD-S2 para<br />
controlar motores <strong>de</strong> DiSEqC.<br />
Si piensa que esto es todo<br />
que lo que el HD-S2 pue<strong>de</strong><br />
hacer para usted, está equivocado.<br />
Por ejemplo, tiene los<br />
artículos <strong>de</strong>l menú especiales,<br />
especialmente para probar el<br />
servicio <strong>de</strong> Internet-vía-satélite<br />
Astra2Connect que busca<br />
los transpon<strong>de</strong>dores <strong>de</strong>dicados<br />
para este servicio. Otra<br />
función bastante rara es que<br />

pue<strong>de</strong> probar un cable <strong>de</strong>l LNB<br />
incluso para los cortocircuitos<br />
o interrupciones.<br />
Finalmente, pue<strong>de</strong> anotar<br />
los resultados <strong>de</strong> las medidas<br />

<strong>de</strong>scargándoselas <strong>de</strong><br />
página web <strong>de</strong> Horizon. Ellos<br />
exten<strong>de</strong>rán la versatilidad<br />
<strong>de</strong>l medidor con experiencias<br />
reales. Se necesita una<br />
alimentación <strong>de</strong> 21 V para el<br />
LNB para SCR (Conmutación<br />

tiene ningún problema con<br />
eso. Tiene un artículo especial<br />

La Opinión <strong>de</strong>l Experto<br />
+<br />
Un medidor <strong>de</strong> peso ligero, compacto y <strong>fácil</strong> <strong>de</strong><br />
usar para la alineación <strong>de</strong> la antena <strong>de</strong> satélite.<br />
Una práctica bolsa. La batería muy buena. Inesperadamente<br />
muchos rasgos en un instrumento<br />
aparentemente simple. Rápida sintonización y<br />
reacción para señalar los cambios.<br />

LNB Monobloque<br />
JQB4P - LNBF <strong>de</strong> 4.3° Quad<br />
Monobloque <strong>de</strong> Jiuzhou<br />
para ASTRA 1 en 19.2° E y<br />
ASTRA 3 en 23.5° E<br />
En Europa, probablemente el LNBF más popular<br />
monobloque está hecho para un espacio <strong>de</strong> 6°. Un poco<br />
menos populares son los LNBF para 3° <strong>de</strong> separación.<br />
¿Pero que pasa si se quieren recibir<br />
2 satélites que están a una<br />
separación <strong>de</strong> 4.3°, como<br />
el ASTRA a 19.2° Este<br />
y el ASTRA a 23.5°<br />
Este? No funcionarán<br />
los monobloques<br />
<strong>de</strong> 6° ni <strong>de</strong> 3°.<br />
Afortunadamente,<br />
algunos fabricantes<br />
notaron la necesidad <strong>de</strong>l<br />
mercado y <strong>de</strong>sarrollaron<br />
los monobloques <strong>de</strong> 4.3°.<br />
Uno <strong>de</strong> esos fabricantes que<br />
han visto la necesidad <strong>de</strong>l<br />
mercado es Jiuzhou, una<br />
compañía bien conocida<br />
por los lectores <strong>de</strong> <strong>TELE</strong>satélite.<br />
Hace algún tiempo,<br />
nosotros probamos sus<br />
monobloques <strong>de</strong> 6° (<strong>TELE</strong>satélite<br />
06-07/2008). Ahora<br />
nosotros <strong>de</strong>cidimos echar<br />
una mirada muy íntima al<br />
JQB4P - el monobloque<br />
quad <strong>de</strong> un espacio <strong>de</strong><br />
satélites <strong>de</strong> 4.3°.<br />
El monobloque se contiene<br />
en una caja <strong>de</strong> metal<br />
sellada con silicona.<br />
Es bastante<br />
pesado<br />
por lo que se<br />
<strong>de</strong>be seleccionar<br />
un plato<br />
con soporte <strong>de</strong><br />
LNBF bastante<br />
sólido. A<strong>de</strong>más<br />
<strong>de</strong>l LNBF nosotros conseguimos un adaptador<br />
plástico para soportes <strong>de</strong> LNBF <strong>de</strong><br />
40 mm. Sin el adaptador, se necesitaría a<br />
un soporte <strong>de</strong> 23 mm. Cuando nosotros<br />
instalamos el JQB4P en nuestra soporte<br />

en él. De esta manera nosotros creamos una<br />
fricción extra y no había ningún riesgo que los<br />
monobloque cambiarían su posición espontáneamente.<br />
La primera prueba que nosotros<br />
hicimos fue comparar la actuación <strong>de</strong> quad <strong>de</strong><br />
Jiuzhou LNBF con nuestro LNBF <strong>de</strong> referencia.<br />
Como referencia usamos LNB monobloque universal<br />
<strong>de</strong> bajo ruido para una separación <strong>de</strong><br />
4.3° (NF=0.2dB). Nosotros usamos un plato <strong>de</strong><br />
<strong>de</strong>splazamiento <strong>de</strong> 85x80 centímetros una proporción<br />
f/D <strong>de</strong> 0.6. Comparamos entre si ambos<br />
LNBs en el enfoque y el LNB <strong>de</strong>scentrado.<br />
Si se examinan las Figuras 1 hasta la 4, se<br />
notará que el quad JQB4P genera ligeramente<br />
solo una salida un poco más baja que el dispositivo<br />
<strong>de</strong> referencia. Para la parte alta <strong>de</strong> la banda<br />
Ku es incluso mejor que nuestra referencia.<br />
Nosotros po<strong>de</strong>mos <strong>de</strong>cir que el nivel <strong>de</strong> salida<br />
<strong>de</strong>l JQB4P es muy bueno para re<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong> distribución<br />
<strong>de</strong> tamaño bajo y medio. Sólo para ajustes<br />
<strong>de</strong> antena con cables muy largos se <strong>de</strong>be consi<strong>de</strong>rar<br />
la adición <strong>de</strong> los amplificadores.<br />
¿Y qué hay sobre la actuación frente al<br />
ruido? ¿Un dispositivo quad pue<strong>de</strong> compararse<br />
a la actuación <strong>de</strong> un monobloque simple? Los<br />
resultados <strong>de</strong> las medidas se muestran en<br />
las Figuras 5 a 8. La actuación <strong>de</strong>l JQB4P es<br />
muy buena, prácticamente igual que nuestra<br />
referencia. Normalmente, un dispositivo quad<br />
tiene un resultado <strong>de</strong> peor MER que un dispositivo<br />
simple pero no en este caso. Sólo para<br />
la polarización vertical <strong>de</strong>l LNB central nosotros<br />
po<strong>de</strong>mos observar una ligera peor actuación.<br />
Se ocupa igualmente bien <strong>de</strong> las señales polarizadas<br />
horizontalmente como en el LNB simple<br />
<strong>de</strong> referencia. Nosotros tenemos aun mejores<br />
resultados con el LNB <strong>de</strong>scentrado. Aquí, el<br />
JQB4P es más bueno para la polarización vertical<br />
y prácticamente el mismo para el horizontal.<br />
La próxima cosa que nosotros quisimos probar<br />
fue la igualdad <strong>de</strong> las cuatro salidas <strong>de</strong>l JQB4P.<br />
Las figuras 9 a 12 nos cuentan la historia: no<br />
hay prácticamente ninguna diferencia entre las<br />
cuatro salidas. Sobre todo los resultados <strong>de</strong><br />
MER son casi idénticos. Esto significa que ninguno<br />
<strong>de</strong> los cuatro caminos <strong>de</strong> la señal es superior<br />
o inferior comparado con los otros.<br />
Éste podría ser el final <strong>de</strong> nuestras pruebas<br />
pero nosotros <strong>de</strong>cidimos verificar algo más. Hay<br />
otro satélite que esté a una distancia angular<br />
similar a la <strong>de</strong>l Astra 3 a 23.5° Este. Nosotros<br />
nos referimos al Astra 2 a 28.2° E. La diferencia<br />
no es 4.3° sino 4.7° no quién sabe, ¿quizás será<br />
posible usar el JQB4P para este par <strong>de</strong> satélites?<br />
Nosotros recalibramos el monobloque en<br />
el soporte para que ahora el LNBF <strong>de</strong>scentrado<br />
estuviera en el lado opuesto y verificamos la<br />
señal. Para nuestro <strong>de</strong>leite, nuestro medidor<br />
<strong>de</strong>splegó la sonrisa ver<strong>de</strong> inmediatamente que<br />
significaba que la recepción era posible. Para<br />
compararlo, nosotros tomamos otro sitio en<br />
las dimensiones - vea las Figuras 13 y 14. En<br />
las muestras <strong>de</strong> sintonización hay una pérdida

<strong>de</strong> calidad <strong>de</strong> la señal si se comparan<br />
con la recepción <strong>de</strong> los satélites con<br />
un espacio <strong>de</strong> 4.3°. Se pue<strong>de</strong>n esperar<br />
problemas con la recepción <strong>de</strong><br />
algunos transpon<strong>de</strong>dores, sobre todo<br />
con mal tiempo. Sin embargo, los<br />
transpon<strong>de</strong>dores más fuertes todavía<br />
pue<strong>de</strong>n recibir. Y no nos olvi<strong>de</strong>mos<br />
que este dispositivo no está pensado<br />
para esta aplicación. Nosotros lo estiramos<br />
para cumplir nuestra curiosidad<br />
(y esperanzadamente la suya).<br />
<strong>Así</strong> que la i<strong>de</strong>a mejor es usar el<br />
JQB4P para un espacio <strong>de</strong> 4.3º <strong>de</strong><br />
acuerdo con sus especificaciones.<br />
Estará satisfecho con los resultados.<br />
El recibir 2 satélites separados por<br />
4.7° todavía es posible pero no todos<br />
los transpon<strong>de</strong>dores se garantizan en<br />
mal tiempo. Para un uso no normal,<br />
se pue<strong>de</strong> consi<strong>de</strong>rar usar el JQB4P<br />

COMPANY REPORT<br />
DOEBIS Comerciante <strong>de</strong> Satélite al por mayor, Alemania<br />
DOEBIS se está Extendiendo<br />
Exactamente hace tres años el <strong>TELE</strong>-satélite publicó un informe sobre DOEBIS, un<br />
comerciante <strong>de</strong>l satélite al por mayor en Alemania. Nosotros pensamos que era<br />
una buena hora para preguntarle a DOEBIS cómo han resistido todo el embate <strong>de</strong><br />
la crisis. Nosotros recibimos una respuesta bastante sorpren<strong>de</strong>nte: “¡ Nosotros nos<br />
estamos extendiendo !” dice Rainer Werking, Gerente <strong>de</strong> DOEBIS. La compañía usó<br />
la crisis económica que comenzó en 2008 y en lugar <strong>de</strong> ralentizarse ellos optaron por<br />
una estrategia <strong>de</strong> carrera: ellos usaron la oportunidad <strong>de</strong> invertir y principalmente<br />
extendieron su fuerza <strong>de</strong> las ventas.<br />

<strong>de</strong> aumento “.<br />
Ésos son unos excelentes resultados<br />
<strong>de</strong> ventas y Wolfgang Pflaum
explica la razón para esto: “ Nosotros<br />
hemos agregado dos marcas <strong>de</strong> fábrica<br />
muy fuertes a nuestro surtido: TOP-<br />
FIELD para el segmento <strong>de</strong> alta gama<br />
y STRONG para el segmento medio “.<br />
DOEBIS rápidamente permitió a sus<br />
clientes conocer todo sobre estos dos<br />
nuevos nombres y asi se han obtenido<br />
unos resultados <strong>de</strong> ventas muy buenos.<br />
Pero DOEBIS no ven<strong>de</strong> a usuarios finales,<br />
entonces, ¿que tipos <strong>de</strong> clientes <strong>de</strong><br />
DOEBIS son?<br />
“ Los clientes principales <strong>de</strong> DOEBIS<br />
siempre han estado en la categoría<br />
<strong>de</strong> especialistas <strong>de</strong> instalaciones “,<br />
informa Wolfgang Pflaum. Las nuevas<br />
activida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong>l Equipo <strong>de</strong> Cuentas<br />

así como distribuidores domésticos<br />

■<br />
Una mirada al gran almacén <strong>de</strong><br />
DOEBIS. La compañía está muy<br />
centralmente localizada y pue<strong>de</strong><br />
entregar igualmente a clientes en<br />
Alemania <strong>de</strong>l norte como a Alemania<br />
<strong>de</strong>l sur así como todos los países<br />
vecinos.<br />
alta <strong>de</strong>manda estos clientes que necesitan<br />
una atención muy especial.<br />
Rainer Werking nos da un atisbo al<br />
diseño geográfico: “ el 75% <strong>de</strong> nuestro<br />
volumen tienen como <strong>de</strong>stino Alemania<br />
mientras que el 25% van al<br />
extranjero “. Estos porcentajes realmente<br />
están iguales que hace tres años<br />
cuando nosotros informamos por primera<br />
vez sobre DOEBIS (<strong>TELE</strong>-satélite<br />
10-11/2007). Comparando los números<br />
<strong>de</strong> hace tres años nosotros notamos<br />
algo más: “ La distribución <strong>de</strong> productos<br />
también ha permanecido sobre lo<br />
mismo “, dice Rainer Werking, “ el 70%<br />
son receptores, el 10% LNBs y el 5%<br />
analizadores <strong>de</strong> señal “.<br />
A largo plazo, DOEBIS está esperando<br />
un tirón en el número <strong>de</strong> receptores,<br />
particularmente los receptores<br />

<strong>de</strong> SD más baratos. “ Por esta razón<br />
DOEBIS está buscando los nuevos<br />
mercados. Nosotros estamos construyendo<br />
nuevos estándares en calidad y<br />
nuevas tecnologías “, dice Rainer Werking<br />
cuando él explica su estrategia<br />
<strong>de</strong> diversificación. Hacia don<strong>de</strong> van los<br />
receptores <strong>de</strong> HD, Rainer Werking tiene<br />
un poco <strong>de</strong> sorpresa para nosotros: “¡<br />
Nosotros hemos <strong>de</strong>sarrollado nuestra<br />
propia marca <strong>de</strong>l receptores !”<br />
DOEBIS empezó recientemente<br />
comercializando su propia línea <strong>de</strong><br />
receptores bajo el nombre JAEGER .<br />
Esta línea es el resultado <strong>de</strong> muchas<br />
sugerencias <strong>de</strong> clientes. “ Con el<br />
JAEGER HDCI 2010 nosotros ofrecemos<br />
un receptor <strong>de</strong> alta <strong>de</strong>finición en<br />
DVB-S2 y con MPEG4 “, explica Rainer<br />
Werking, “ otro mo<strong>de</strong>lo es el JAEGER<br />
HD+ 2011 “. Estos dos receptores están
ahora disponibles; un tercer mo<strong>de</strong>lo se<br />
introducirá con la publicación <strong>de</strong> esta<br />
edición; el receptor HDTV JAEGER HD+<br />
2011 CI+.<br />
<strong>TELE</strong>-satélite está planeando un<br />
informe <strong>de</strong> prueba sobre este mo<strong>de</strong>lo<br />
en una próxima edición. “ Nuestros<br />
mo<strong>de</strong>los <strong>de</strong> JAEGER son ‘ Montados en<br />
Alemania’ “, revela Rainer Werking. El<br />
gerente <strong>de</strong> Cuentas Importantes Wolfgang<br />
Pflaum continúa, “ Para el 2010<br />
nosotros esperamos una ventas <strong>de</strong> los<br />
receptores <strong>de</strong> JAEGER estén alre<strong>de</strong>dor<br />
<strong>de</strong>l 5%; para el 2011 nosotros proyectamos<br />
un aumento al 10%. A medio<br />
plazo nosotros estamos buscando que<br />
la línea <strong>de</strong> receptores <strong>de</strong> JAEGER constituya<br />
aproximadamente 20% <strong>de</strong> las<br />
ventas <strong>de</strong> receptores <strong>de</strong> DOEBIS “.<br />
Como estamos en el asunto <strong>de</strong> los<br />
receptores, nosotros quisimos saber<br />
qué diferentes rangos se pue<strong>de</strong>n recibir<br />
con los receptores <strong>de</strong> DOEBIS. Rainer<br />
Werking estaba listo con la respuesta:<br />
“ En el 2010, el 65% <strong>de</strong> los receptores<br />
vinieron con sintonizadores <strong>de</strong>l saté-<br />
■<br />
■<br />
lite, el 10% con sintonizadores terrestres<br />
y el 25% con sintonizadores <strong>de</strong><br />
cable. Nosotros estamos esperando un<br />
aumento en los sintonizadores <strong>de</strong> cable<br />
hasta un 30% y bajar un poco en los<br />
receptores terrestres en el 2011 hasta<br />
el 8% y en los receptores <strong>de</strong>l satélite<br />
bajar al 62%.”<br />
Los Gerentes <strong>de</strong> DOEBIS están<br />
esperando para el 2012: “ Los últimos<br />
transpon<strong>de</strong>dores <strong>de</strong> la TV analógica se<br />
<strong>de</strong>sconectarán y los millones <strong>de</strong> impelentes<br />
<strong>de</strong> espectadores tendrán que<br />
actualizar sus receptores a digitales “,<br />
comenta Rainer Werking, “ para entonces<br />
nuestro almacén estará lleno <strong>de</strong><br />
receptores digitales “.<br />
Si se echa una mirada a la paleta <strong>de</strong><br />
productos <strong>de</strong> DOEBIS, se verá que está<br />
hecha <strong>de</strong> productos <strong>de</strong> calidad superior<br />
<strong>de</strong> algunos <strong>de</strong> los nombres más gran<strong>de</strong>s<br />
en el negocio. No <strong>de</strong>be aparecer<br />
entonces como ninguna sorpresa que<br />
DOEBIS también ofrezca el LNB <strong>de</strong> fibra<br />
óptica. “ Ya 5% <strong>de</strong> nuestros clientes<br />
<strong>de</strong> distribución sólo han optado por el<br />

Para el 2011 nosotros esperamos este<br />
número pueda aumentar al 10%.”<br />
Todavía podría tomar un poco tiempo,<br />
pero llegará el tiempo cuando sólo se<br />
ven<strong>de</strong>rán LNBs <strong>de</strong> fibra óptica. “ Estos<br />

buenos y pue<strong>de</strong>n usarse en cualquier<br />

con este sentimiento. Normalmente<br />

Mercado <strong>de</strong> los Proveedores<br />
Los lectores <strong>de</strong> esta revista han estado familiarizados<br />
durante años con el fabricante <strong>de</strong> lectores <strong>de</strong> tarjetas<br />

06-07/2007 nosotros publicamos el primer informe<br />
sobre esta compañía danesa que ha propuesto una i<strong>de</strong>a<br />
gloriosa: ¿Cómo po<strong>de</strong>r transmitir los datos <strong>de</strong> la tarjeta <strong>de</strong><br />

(Padborg)
Kurt Olesen es el cerebro inteligente<br />
que hay <strong>de</strong>trás <strong>de</strong> SmartWi. Él fundó la<br />
compañía en el 2005 y cuando nosotros lo<br />
visitamos la primera vez fue en el 2007<br />
en el momento que él estaba montando<br />
una ola gigantesca <strong>de</strong> éxito. Se vendieron<br />
60,000 productos <strong>de</strong> SmartWi en 2007,<br />
excepto que las figuras <strong>de</strong> las ventas gradualmente<br />
fueron disminuyendo los años<br />
siguientes. “ En el 2010 nosotros ven<strong>de</strong>remos<br />
aproximadamente 35,000 dispositivos<br />
<strong>de</strong> SmartWi “.<br />
Todavía, Kurt Olesen tiene una perspectiva<br />
sumamente segura en el futuro, y por<br />
una razón: “ Durante la fecha <strong>de</strong> la publicación<br />
<strong>de</strong> esta edición <strong>de</strong> <strong>TELE</strong>-satélite y en<br />
la feria <strong>de</strong> mustras <strong>de</strong>l IBC nosotros lanzaremos<br />
la segunda generación <strong>de</strong> SmartWi”<br />
, Kurt Olesen explica y orgullosamente nos<br />
muestra el nuevo mo<strong>de</strong>lo <strong>de</strong> SmartWi. “<br />
Funciona <strong>de</strong> la misma manera como la primera<br />
generación “, continúa. “ Los clientes<br />
simplemente conectan la tarjeta <strong>de</strong> la TV<br />
<strong>de</strong> pago en la unidad y pue<strong>de</strong>n entonces<br />
mirar la TV <strong>de</strong> pago en una segunda <strong>TELE</strong>-<br />
VISIÓN en usando una tarjeta adicional<br />
que se conecta al dispositivo principal vía<br />
las señales <strong>de</strong> radio “.<br />
La nueva SmartWi ha hecho un salto<br />
cualitativo que pue<strong>de</strong> verse claramente<br />
incluso en el exterior. Jens Glad, el hijo <strong>de</strong><br />
Kurt Olesen es el responsable para la tecnología<br />
y diseño <strong>de</strong>ntro <strong>de</strong>l negocio y ha<br />
<strong>de</strong>terminado un diseño elegante <strong>de</strong>l dispositivo.<br />
Mientras que la primera generación<br />
tenía aspecto <strong>de</strong> computadora, el nuevo<br />
SmartWi alar<strong>de</strong>a un diseño premiado que<br />
casi clama por presentarlo con orgullo, en<br />
lugar <strong>de</strong> escon<strong>de</strong>rlo profundamente <strong>de</strong>trás<br />
<strong>de</strong>l armario. Es un recurso <strong>de</strong> estilo y<br />
ganará <strong>fácil</strong>mente también a la señora <strong>de</strong><br />
la casa, para que no <strong>de</strong>sespere con las clásicas<br />
objeciones contra otra cosa técnica.<br />
Va sin <strong>de</strong>cir que el aspecto no engaña<br />
en este caso. Simplemente escuche a Jens<br />
Glad listando todas las innovaciones que<br />
han tenido lugar: “ La principal mejora es un<br />
procesador más rápido y la nueva memoria<br />
<strong>de</strong>l programa que han doblado en la capacidad<br />
<strong>de</strong> la versión anterior “. Esto hace<br />
que la segunda generación <strong>de</strong> SmartWi sea<br />
■<br />
consi<strong>de</strong>rablemente más rápida y mucho<br />
más sensible. Pero hay más.<br />
“ La antena incorporada se coloca ahora<br />
en un diseño que le permite funcionar a<br />
lo largo <strong>de</strong>l lado longitudinal <strong>de</strong>l dispositivo<br />
que constituye la parte más <strong>de</strong>cisoria<br />
<strong>de</strong> la capacidad <strong>de</strong> una buena transmisión<br />
cuando se compara con el diseño más viejo<br />
“, nos explica Jens.<br />
Otra característica muy interesante es la<br />
segunda ranura <strong>de</strong> la tarjeta en la caja. “<br />
El nuevo SmartWi tiene todo el hardware<br />
requerido por usar dos tarjetas inteligentes<br />
al mismo tiempo “ , según Jens Olesen. No<br />
se activan mo<strong>de</strong>los que se envían actualmente<br />
para el uso <strong>de</strong> tarjeta duales, pero<br />
con un software <strong>de</strong> puesta al día se abrirá<br />
esa característica en breve.<br />
Los productos <strong>de</strong> SmartWi <strong>de</strong> la primera<br />
generación eran principalmente vendidos<br />
directamente al cliente, y Kurt Olesen está<br />
<strong>de</strong>cidido en entrar en un territorio <strong>de</strong>sconocido<br />
también en este área. La segunda<br />
generación SmartWi está claramente<br />
En esta casa en el pueblo pequeño <strong>de</strong> Kruså en el<br />
sur <strong>de</strong> Dinamarca, cerca <strong>de</strong> la frontera <strong>de</strong> Alemania,<br />
está situado SmartWi. Tres astas <strong>de</strong> ban<strong>de</strong>ra llevan<br />
orgullosamente la marca <strong>de</strong> SmartWi y atraen la<br />
atención <strong>de</strong> los que pasan por <strong>de</strong>lante.<br />

Kurt Olesen es el fundador y el director<br />
gerente <strong>de</strong> SmartWi. Aquí nos muestra una<br />
SmartWi <strong>de</strong> la última generación. Esta versión<br />
reforzada piensa que es una versión que<br />
atraerá a los proveedores <strong>de</strong> contenidos y<br />
por consiguiente empujará el negocio <strong>de</strong> la<br />
compañía significativamente.<br />
orientada a la comercialización por el proveedor.<br />
“ Esto también es un motivo por lo<br />
que nosotros hemos cambiado el diseño y<br />
hemos cambiado al color negro “, agrega<br />
Jens Glad, quién es el responsable <strong>de</strong> esa<br />
<strong>de</strong>cisión. “ Con el nuevo diseño los proveedores<br />
<strong>de</strong> contenidos podrán ofrecer el<br />
SmartWi bajo su propia marca <strong>de</strong> fábrica “.<br />
■<br />
A propósito, él tiene razón al <strong>de</strong>clarar que<br />
Vea <strong>de</strong> antemano las imágenes <strong>de</strong>l nuevo<br />
SmartWi: el primer dispositivo <strong>de</strong> la generación<br />
con su diseño <strong>de</strong> prototipo a la izquierda, y la<br />
segunda generación en SmartWi y sus aspecto<br />
elegante a la <strong>de</strong>recha. El viejo SmartWi aloja la<br />
tarjeta <strong>de</strong> subscripción en el lado, mientras que<br />
la tarjeta <strong>de</strong>saparece completamente en la nueva<br />
versión, creando una apariencia <strong>de</strong> ladrillo.<br />
los proveedores ignoran que existe un gran<br />
mercado obstinado por lo que se refiere a<br />
las segundas o terceras Televisiones en las<br />
casas. “¿Realmente conoce a alguien con<br />
sólo un aparato <strong>de</strong> TV? “ nos pregunta Kurt<br />
Olesen. Todavía, la mayoría <strong>de</strong> las licencias<br />
<strong>de</strong> los proveedores a estos clientes<br />
está en la oscuridad, porque ellos o les<br />
obligan a que pidan una segunda subscripción<br />
al precio completo (qué está fuera <strong>de</strong><br />
64 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
la pregunta para la mayoría), u ofrecen una<br />
segundas tarjetas inteligentes a precios<br />
algo más reducidos, pero no hay ninguna<br />
manera <strong>de</strong> saber entonces <strong>de</strong> nuevo quién<br />
usará estas tarjetas adicionales y ninguna<br />
manera <strong>de</strong> asegurarse realmente que ellos<br />
se quedan en la misma casa.<br />
Si, por otro lado, los proveedores <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>n<br />
directamente a cualquiera ofrecerles el<br />
SmartWi a sus subscriptores o por lo menos<br />
oficialmente una licencia <strong>de</strong> él, cada subscriptor<br />
podrá usar su segunda o tercera TV<br />
<strong>de</strong> una manera legal, como el rango inalámbrico<br />
<strong>de</strong>l SmartWi que sólo cubre una<br />
sola casa. Esta manera los proveedores <strong>de</strong><br />
contenidos no necesitan el miedo <strong>de</strong> que la<br />
tarjeta se comparta <strong>de</strong> una manera ilegal,<br />
como esto no es posible con el sistema <strong>de</strong><br />
SmartWi en el primer lugar. Kurt Olesen<br />
está absolutamente convencido que “ los<br />
proveedores <strong>de</strong> contenidos pue<strong>de</strong>n probar<br />
este nuevo gran mercado “. Por otro lado él<br />
también es consciente <strong>de</strong> un dilema subyacente:<br />
“ Los técnicos <strong>de</strong> las compañías <strong>de</strong><br />
los proveedores están normalmente abiertos<br />
para el SmartWi, pero a las secciones<br />
comerciales les preocupa menos la tecnología<br />
o simplemente no conocen que es lo<br />
que hace nuestro producto “.<br />
Sin embargo, Kurt Olesen está seguro<br />
<strong>de</strong> una cosa: El nuevo diseño atraerá la<br />
atención <strong>de</strong> las personas <strong>de</strong> los <strong>de</strong>partamentos<br />
comerciales que realmente están<br />
en camino <strong>de</strong> dar el primer paso a lanzar<br />
la segunda generación SmartWi para que<br />
los proveedores también la comercialicen.
■<br />
Jens Glad es el hijo <strong>de</strong>l fundador Kurt Olesen y está<br />
al cargo <strong>de</strong> la tecnología. Aquí po<strong>de</strong>mos verlo con<br />
la programación <strong>de</strong> la SmartWi. Cada producto se<br />
etiqueta con un único código <strong>de</strong> software y se etiqueta<br />
con un número <strong>de</strong> serie individual. De esta manera es<br />
posible rastrear cada SmartWi.<br />
■<br />
Ejgild Lund es el gerente <strong>de</strong><br />
administración en SmartWi. Él<br />
se cuida <strong>de</strong>l trabajo <strong>de</strong> oficina,<br />
facturación y teneduría <strong>de</strong> libros.<br />
66 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
De hecho, SmartWi es un producto que<br />
no sólo cubrió un nicho pequeño <strong>de</strong>l mercado<br />
cuando fue introducido por primera<br />
vez. Este nicho, sin embargo, estaba constantemente<br />
extendido gracias a un espíritu<br />
<strong>de</strong> innovación y una estrategia <strong>de</strong> perseverancia.<br />
Una compañía que empezó con tres<br />
personas se ha convertido en un funcionamiento<br />
<strong>de</strong> 6 personas. Y este número<br />
pue<strong>de</strong> incluso subir más allá en cuanto<br />
SmartWi consiga una posición establecida<br />
en el mercado <strong>de</strong> los proveedores.<br />
La primera señal <strong>de</strong> éxito ya está manifiesta:<br />
“ El proveedor eslovaco SATRO ya<br />
está usando los productos <strong>de</strong> SmartWi hoy<br />
“, nos dice Kurt Olesen y proporciona el<br />
testamento al nuevo curso <strong>de</strong> acción <strong>de</strong> la<br />
compañía.<br />
SmartWi está firmemente fijado en su<br />
jornada <strong>de</strong> humil<strong>de</strong> <strong>de</strong> salida al mercado<br />
establecido gracias a un gradual, todavía<br />
en <strong>de</strong>sarrollo, producto <strong>de</strong>l nicho inicial.<br />
¡Otra historia <strong>de</strong> éxito excitante!<br />
■<br />
El proveedor eslovaco <strong>de</strong> contenidos<br />
SATRO ya está ofreciendo al sistema <strong>de</strong><br />
SmartWi a sus subscriptores.

por su calidad, <strong>de</strong> multi conmutadores y otros<br />
accesorios para distribución <strong>de</strong> la señal <strong>de</strong><br />

68 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
■<br />
Kevin Spaun, director gerente<br />
<strong>de</strong> SPAUN POWER GmbH
En la esquina más sur occi<strong>de</strong>ntal Alemania,<br />
cerca <strong>de</strong>l Lago Constance, está situado<br />
el pequeño pueblo <strong>de</strong> Singen que es don<strong>de</strong><br />
SPAUN ha tenido su cuartel general durante<br />
más <strong>de</strong> 40 años. Siempre se ha puesto toda<br />
la experiencia ganada en décadas <strong>de</strong> especialización<br />
tecnológica en hacer aún mejores<br />
los gran<strong>de</strong>s productos. Hoy, la marca<br />
<strong>de</strong> fábrica SPAUN es un sello para los productos<br />
<strong>de</strong> calidad superior e innovadores en<br />
el negocio <strong>de</strong>l satélite y más allá. Esto ha<br />
llevado a SPAUN a empezar a ofrecer <strong>de</strong>s<strong>de</strong><br />
hace algunos años una garantía completa <strong>de</strong><br />
5 años para sus productos.<br />
En el curso <strong>de</strong> todos estos años Friedrich<br />
Spaun, el fundador <strong>de</strong> SPAUN, y su hijo Kevin<br />
que han llevado la dirección <strong>de</strong> la compañía<br />
notaron una cosa. “ Siempre que un dispositivo<br />
se enviaba para su reparación, el componente<br />
que era <strong>de</strong>fectuoso en la mayoría<br />
<strong>de</strong> los casos era la unidad <strong>de</strong> alimentación<br />
“, nos revela Kevin Spaun. “ Y a propósito,<br />
este diagnóstico es verdad para casi todos<br />
los dispositivos electrónicos “.<br />
Los con<strong>de</strong>nsadores electrolíticos en estos<br />
dispositivos normalmente son la culpa <strong>de</strong> los<br />
fracasos. “ En el mercado hay varios con<strong>de</strong>nsadores<br />
electrolíticos diferentes que pue<strong>de</strong>n<br />
acabar con la vida <strong>de</strong>l producto. Se diseñan<br />
Singen am<br />
Bo<strong>de</strong>nsee<br />
los mo<strong>de</strong>los menos caros para una vida <strong>de</strong><br />
servicio total <strong>de</strong> unas 3,000 horas <strong>de</strong> funcionamiento,<br />
mientras los tipos más sofisticados<br />
pue<strong>de</strong>n durar durante 10,000 horas o<br />
más “. Obviamente, los con<strong>de</strong>nsadores electrolíticos<br />
no <strong>de</strong>jan <strong>de</strong> trabajar <strong>de</strong> repente<br />
<strong>de</strong>spués <strong>de</strong> 3,000 o 10,000 horas; la vida <strong>de</strong>l<br />
producto dada se refiere a un promedio <strong>de</strong><br />
horas bajo la temperatura máxima <strong>de</strong> operación<br />
y consumo <strong>de</strong> potencia al máximo.<br />
Como estas condiciones extremas normalmente<br />
solo ocurren en situaciones raras,<br />
los con<strong>de</strong>nsadores exce<strong>de</strong>n <strong>de</strong> mucho éstas<br />
tasas <strong>de</strong> horas.<br />
Como la mayoría <strong>de</strong> los fabricantes <strong>de</strong> dispositivos<br />
electrónicos, SPAUN usó fuentes <strong>de</strong><br />
alimentación que las fabricaba un tercero en<br />
sus unida<strong>de</strong>s. Después <strong>de</strong> todo, una compañía<br />
que son productores <strong>de</strong> multi conmutadores<br />
no <strong>de</strong>ben enfocar su trabajo en unida<strong>de</strong>s<br />
<strong>de</strong> fuente <strong>de</strong> alimentación, ¿correcto? Bien,<br />
si el primer principio <strong>de</strong> guía es la calidad y<br />
se proporciona una extensión <strong>de</strong> garantía <strong>de</strong><br />
5 años en todos sus productos, su enfoque<br />
tiene que estar en cada componente. “ Al<br />
principio nosotros exigimos <strong>de</strong> nuestro proveedor<br />
usar sólo con<strong>de</strong>nsadores electrolíticos<br />
<strong>de</strong> calidad “, nos recuerda Kevin Spaun.<br />
Pero ni siquiera al final <strong>de</strong>l día, este requisito<br />
no era bastante para garantizar la calidad<br />

exigida por SPAUN. A<strong>de</strong>más <strong>de</strong> la calidad y<br />
fiabilidad, un fabricante serio tiene también<br />
que mirar la eficacia energética, y por lo que<br />
SPAUN comprendió finalmente que sus especificaciones<br />
para las fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación<br />
fabricadas por terceros se habían hecho tan<br />
complejas y exigentes que empezó el sentido<br />
<strong>de</strong> fabricarlas por ellos mismos y mirar<br />
producción interna <strong>de</strong> estos componentes.<br />
“ Los fabricantes in<strong>de</strong>pendientes siempre<br />
tienen que mantener un equilibrio entre los<br />
costes y la calidad <strong>de</strong> los componente para<br />
po<strong>de</strong>r ofrecer un precio competitivo. Si nosotros,<br />
por otro lado, nos lo producimos todo,<br />
nosotros tenemos el proceso completo bajo<br />
nuestro propio control y po<strong>de</strong>mos seleccionar<br />
cada componente individualmente para<br />
que el producto a fabricar encuentre nuestras<br />
severas <strong>de</strong>mandas. Ésta es la única<br />
manera <strong>de</strong> lograr la calidad que nosotros<br />
esperamos “.<br />
Una vez se había tomado esta <strong>de</strong>cisión,<br />
todo fue muy rápido: SPAUN POWER GmbH<br />
se fundó como una nueva compañía y también<br />
se creó un nuevo taller <strong>de</strong> producción.<br />
“ Nosotros invertimos unos 2 millones <strong>de</strong><br />
Euros”, nos explica Kevin Spaun mientras<br />
nos da una visita a los talleres <strong>de</strong> producción.<br />
La nueva compañía lleva ahora dos años en<br />
marcha. “ Nosotros estamos en una posición<br />

Un escaparate <strong>de</strong> muestras<br />
en el área <strong>de</strong> la recepción<br />
muestra el rango <strong>de</strong> productos<br />
<strong>de</strong> SPAUN. La compañía no<br />
sólo produce las fuentes <strong>de</strong><br />
alimentación conmutadas<br />
sino también todos los tipos<br />
<strong>de</strong> multi-conmutadores<br />
así como conmutadores<br />
DiSEqC y componentes para<br />
la distribución <strong>de</strong> la señal,<br />
incluso transmisores y<br />
receptores <strong>de</strong> fibra óptica.<br />
70 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
para producir aproximadamente 500.000 unida<strong>de</strong>s<br />
<strong>de</strong> fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación anuales “, y<br />
continúa. “ Con este número <strong>de</strong> unida<strong>de</strong>s nosotros<br />
po<strong>de</strong>mos no sólo equipar todos nuestros<br />
propios productos, sino que también po<strong>de</strong>mos<br />
suministrar a terceras compañías “. De hecho,<br />
más <strong>de</strong>l 10% <strong>de</strong> la producción anual se ven<strong>de</strong><br />
a otras compañías que han entendido que un<br />
coste inicialmente más alto para las fuentes <strong>de</strong><br />
alimentación conmutadas a la larga compensa<br />
más a una vida <strong>de</strong> servicio extendida. Kevin<br />
Spaun <strong>de</strong>talla el razonamiento con la frase: “<br />
La calidad siempre gana. Aun cuando pue<strong>de</strong><br />
parecer un mito al principio, <strong>de</strong>s<strong>de</strong> un punto <strong>de</strong><br />
vista completamente financiero, el usar componentes<br />
más baratos, el beneficio <strong>de</strong>saparece<br />
cuando los componentes fallan <strong>de</strong>spués <strong>de</strong> un<br />
corto tiempo. Elegir una alta calidad <strong>de</strong> salida<br />
resulta ser una <strong>de</strong>cisión mucho más sabia “.<br />
Esto es <strong>de</strong> una importancia particular para<br />
todos los productos que tienen un ciclo <strong>de</strong> vida<br />
que dura muchos años. “ Nosotros proporcionamos<br />
nuestros productos para sistemas <strong>de</strong><br />
distribución <strong>de</strong> señal en hoteles o en gran<strong>de</strong>s<br />
edificios resi<strong>de</strong>nciales “, él continúa. “ Algunas<br />
<strong>de</strong> estas premisas tienen varios miles <strong>de</strong> usuarios<br />
y el equipo electrónico tiene que trabajar<br />
fiablemente durante años o incluso décadas sin<br />
fracaso “. Una compañía como SPAUN pue<strong>de</strong><br />
encontrarse sólo en ese nivel <strong>de</strong> calidad con<br />
productos <strong>de</strong> alta calidad. Si las unida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong><br />
fuente <strong>de</strong> alimentación requirieren para esa<br />
meta no estár disponibles en el mercado,<br />
entonces SPAUN tiene que resolver el problema<br />
con la fabricación interna.<br />
Todavía, la calidad no es el único atributo<br />
que ha llevado SPAUN para ponerse a fabricar<br />
unida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong> fuente <strong>de</strong> alimentación. “ Nuestras<br />
fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación conmutadas consumen<br />
hasta un 25% menos energía que los componentes<br />
convencionales “. Una cosa que no <strong>de</strong>be<br />
infravalorarse en esto es consi<strong>de</strong>rar el hecho<br />
que la mayoría <strong>de</strong> los productos <strong>de</strong> SPAUN se<br />
trabajan todo el tiempo y así constantemente<br />
requieren alimentación eléctrica. Después <strong>de</strong><br />
todo, un multi conmutador o amplificador <strong>de</strong>be<br />
estar corriendo y disponible en todo momento.<br />
No hay que <strong>de</strong>cir que los multi conmutadores<br />
<strong>de</strong> SPAUN han estado provistos con un modo<br />
<strong>de</strong> reserva <strong>de</strong> energía durante años, pero las<br />
economías <strong>de</strong> energía adicionales <strong>de</strong> cerca<br />
<strong>de</strong>l 30% incluso es un gran beneficio en estos<br />
tiempos.<br />
“ Siendo bastante francos, nuestras nuevas<br />
unida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong> alimentación se pagan por ellas<br />
mismas, “, <strong>de</strong>clara Kevin Spaun y explica los<br />
cálculos. La factura <strong>de</strong> la electricidad <strong>de</strong> los<br />
usuarios será más baja todos los meses “ y<br />
todas nuestras unida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong> alimentación se<br />
diseñan para estas conectadas a cualquier voltaje<br />
entre 100 y 240 V lo que las hacen verda<strong>de</strong>ramente<br />
universales “, él también agrega<br />
con una indirecta al potencial para los productos<br />
<strong>de</strong> SPAUN para las compañías fuera <strong>de</strong><br />
Europa. “ Actualmente SPAUN POWER emplea<br />
tres ingenieros muy especializados y en un<br />
futuro cercano nosotros lanzaremos un rango
<strong>de</strong> fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación conmutadas para<br />
proporcionar a alimentación a LEDs. Nosotros<br />
esperamos que será un mercado <strong>de</strong> crecimiento<br />
significante en el futuro. Naturalmente,<br />
nosotros también po<strong>de</strong>mos usar nuestra<br />
extensa especialización extensa para <strong>de</strong>sarrollar<br />
y fabricar también soluciones específicas a<br />
clientes “. Los nuevas fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación<br />
conmutadas no sólo consumen menos energía,<br />
sino que también usan la energía mucho más<br />
eficazmente. “ Nosotros estamos mirando un<br />
factor <strong>de</strong> eficacia <strong>de</strong> más <strong>de</strong>l 90% “, nos cuenta<br />
orgullosamente Kevin Spaun. Finalmente,<br />
Kevin Spaun nos da una luz en una estrategia<br />
muy ventajosa para exten<strong>de</strong>r la vida <strong>de</strong> servicio<br />
<strong>de</strong> las unida<strong>de</strong>s <strong>de</strong> alimentación <strong>de</strong> SPAUN.<br />
“ Nosotros generalmente diseñamos las unida<strong>de</strong>s<br />
<strong>de</strong> alimentación para nuestros productos<br />
para que ellos corran a aproximadamente a un<br />
60% capacidad “. Quedándose muy por <strong>de</strong>bajo<br />
<strong>de</strong> ese umbral reduce el riesgo <strong>de</strong> fracaso<br />
durante el uso permanente.<br />
SPAUN ha aprendido todos los trucos <strong>de</strong>l<br />
comercio en sus cuatro décadas como un fabricante<br />
<strong>de</strong> productos <strong>de</strong> calidad superior. La<br />
<strong>de</strong>cisión <strong>de</strong> también producir las fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación<br />
internamente es un paso adicional<br />
en una ca<strong>de</strong>na industrial totalmente optimista<br />
y reforzando más allá los productos <strong>de</strong> calidad<br />
superior y fiables <strong>de</strong> la compañía. Es gran<strong>de</strong><br />
ver que un enfoque estricto en la calidad lleva<br />
al éxito a largo plazo y se está agradando en<br />
ver que el enfoque <strong>de</strong>l precio que parece ser<br />
tan prevaleciente estos días no siempre es la<br />
manera al éxito dura<strong>de</strong>ro.<br />

¿Qué es una Fuente <strong>de</strong> Alimentación<br />
Conmutada?<br />
Una Fuente <strong>de</strong> Alimentación Conmutada (FAC) convierte el voltaje <strong>de</strong> CA <strong>de</strong> red<br />
(110-240V, 50/60 Hz) en el voltaje <strong>de</strong> DC requerido por todos los dispositivos electrónicos<br />
como son los aparatos <strong>de</strong> Televisión <strong>de</strong> todas clases, receptores <strong>de</strong> satélite,<br />
computadoras portátiles, el multi conmutadores etc.). El voltaje <strong>de</strong> DC queda<br />
estabilizado a la salida aunque consumamos más corriente <strong>de</strong> la FAC.<br />
Las fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación viejas (llamadas „ fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación lineales<br />
„) requieren un transformador gran<strong>de</strong> y pesado que convierte el alto voltaje <strong>de</strong>l CA<br />
en un voltaje <strong>de</strong> CA más pequeño CA así como un transistor regulador con un radiador<br />
para estabilizar el voltaje <strong>de</strong> DC. Regulando el voltaje <strong>de</strong> DC en un modo lineal<br />
lleva a las pérdidas <strong>de</strong> potencia significativas lo que genera el calor no <strong>de</strong>seado. De<br />
ahí la necesidad <strong>de</strong> un radiador.<br />
Las FAC primero convierten el voltaje <strong>de</strong> CA voltaje en voltaje <strong>de</strong> DC y entonces<br />
hay unos interruptores que van cortando la tensión con una alta frecuencia (50 kHz<br />
a a 1 MHz) lo que produce una forma <strong>de</strong> onda rectangular. Normalmente todavía se<br />
necesita un pequeño transformador pero ahora es mucho más pequeño porque es<br />
alta la frecuencia, y se necesita un transformador más pequeño para convertirla. El<br />
transistor <strong>de</strong> regulación con un gran radiador ya no se necesita porque el voltaje se<br />
regula cambiando la proporción <strong>de</strong> estados on/off.<br />
Las FAC son por consiguiente mucho más compactas y <strong>de</strong> peso ligero y también<br />
son más eficaces energéticamente. Éstas son sus ventajas principales. También<br />
son más complejas que las fuentes <strong>de</strong> alimentación lineal tradicionales. A pesar <strong>de</strong><br />
eso, se usan FAC casi exclusivamente en todos los equipos electrónicos <strong>de</strong> hoy en<br />
día.<br />

COMPANY REPORT<br />
Satellite Distributor SMART INNOVATIONS, The Netherlands<br />
The AZBox Champions<br />
from Holland<br />
It really helps to not only have a good product but to also<br />
have a very ambitious sales team. A perfect example of<br />
this is the company Smart Innovations in northeastern<br />
Holland. The three owners of the company are very<br />
much involved with its operation and have helped<br />
make the AZBox receivers one<br />
of the top selling brands not<br />
only in The Netherlands but<br />
also in Belgium and<br />
Luxemburg. For these<br />
three countries, Smart<br />
Innovations has<br />
taken over<br />
distribution<br />
of the AZBox.<br />

Zutphen<br />
(Amsterdam)<br />
At the moment, Smart Innovations still resi<strong>de</strong>s<br />
in one of the apartments in this house in the<br />
town of Zutphen in northeastern Holland. The<br />
move to a new office is coming very soon.
The three-man company currently<br />
resi<strong>de</strong>s in a resi<strong>de</strong>ntial area in the<br />
small town of Zutphen, not too far from<br />
Apeldoorn and roughly 100 km from<br />
Amsterdam. At the moment the warehouse<br />
is in the foun<strong>de</strong>r’s garage but<br />
this won’t be the case much longer. The<br />
company will shortly move to a larger<br />
building which will inclu<strong>de</strong> a warehouse.<br />
We found out how it all started from<br />
Herbert Verheij<strong>de</strong>n; he’s really the<br />
foun<strong>de</strong>r of Smart Innovations. “I started<br />
the company in 2005”, he explains to<br />
us. He’s been involved with <strong>satellite</strong><br />
reception since 1995. “My first receiver<br />
was the PACE 500 G4. Back then it was<br />
one of the first digital receivers available”,<br />
he remembers. His first <strong>satellite</strong><br />
dish was 80cm in diameter.<br />
He is a software engineer by tra<strong>de</strong><br />
and thus was especially interested in<br />
digital signal modulation technology.<br />
Via the Internet it didn’t take long for<br />
him to find people with similar interests<br />
with which he could exchange i<strong>de</strong>as.<br />
“We still use the www.sat4all.com Satellite<br />
Bulletin Board today to communicate<br />
with our customers”,<br />
explains Herbert Verheij<strong>de</strong>n.<br />
He met<br />
André Pelgrim<br />
through this <strong>satellite</strong> board and found<br />
out that he didn’t live all too far away<br />
from him and was therefore able to<br />
meet up with him in person on many<br />
occasions.<br />
Over the years the two of them<br />
worked closer and closer together. The<br />
third member of the team is Rinus Lindoorn.<br />
He’s the foun<strong>de</strong>r and chairman<br />
of the ‘De Transpon<strong>de</strong>r’ <strong>satellite</strong> club<br />
which provi<strong>de</strong>s extensive information<br />
for <strong>satellite</strong> enthusiasts via its web site<br />
www.<strong>de</strong>transpon<strong>de</strong>r.nl.<br />
In 2007 the three of them became<br />
equal partners in Smart Innovations<br />
with each owning exactly one third of<br />
the company. Their jobs are all very<br />
clearly <strong>de</strong>fined: Herbert Verheij<strong>de</strong>n is<br />
responsible for the company’s vision,<br />
Andre Pelgrim handles the technical<br />
si<strong>de</strong> of operations while Rinus Lindoorn<br />
watches over the small company’s<br />
finances. All three of them have a<br />
<strong>de</strong>dication to <strong>satellite</strong> technology<br />
and above all the AZBox.<br />
80 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
■<br />
Herbert Verheij<strong>de</strong>n explains<br />
how the connection to the<br />
AZBox came about: “We met<br />
Hugo Con<strong>de</strong>ssa, the head of<br />
AZBox, at ANGA 2005 and learned about<br />
his products. We recognized right away<br />
that his boxes were i<strong>de</strong>al for our market<br />
because of its quality and price.” The<br />
Smart Innovations team immediately<br />
began translating the receiver manuals,<br />
receiver menus and promotional materials<br />
into Dutch. “We also started our<br />
own support forum at www.azbox.nl”,<br />
adds Herbert Verheij<strong>de</strong>n.<br />
The start of the company didn’t go<br />
all too smoothly at first: “In our first<br />
year 2007 we managed to sell only 500<br />
receivers and our second year 2008<br />
wasn’t much better”, explains Rinus<br />
Lindoorn, responsible for the financial<br />
si<strong>de</strong> of things. The three agree that the<br />
main reason for this weak beginning<br />
was that AZBox only offered SD receivers<br />
at the time.<br />
In 2009 however, sales increased<br />
dramatically: “In 2009 we sold 1400<br />
high <strong>de</strong>finition receivers and in 2010<br />
we expect that number to climb to<br />
3000”, Rinus Lindoorn says confi<strong>de</strong>ntly.<br />
The increase in sales is also<br />
due to some other factors. Rinus Lindoorn<br />
regularly visit’s the <strong>de</strong>alers in<br />
Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg to<br />
highlight the advantages of the AZBox:<br />
The smart i<strong>de</strong>a from Smart Innovations: they are working on a box to convert Infrared to Bluetooth.<br />
This would make it possible to control the AZBox and a state-of-the-art TV system from a single<br />
remote control.

■<br />
Rinus Lindoorn is responsible<br />
for the financial si<strong>de</strong> of Smart<br />
Innovations.<br />
“I visit roughly 30 firms every year”,<br />
he explains.<br />
The other two colleagues don’t sit idly<br />
around either; they are actively promoting<br />
the AZBox in <strong>satellite</strong> forums<br />
as well as in their own support forum.<br />
“We quickly answer every question we<br />
receive”, comments Herbert Verheij<strong>de</strong>n<br />
adding that the customer is never<br />
alone.<br />
The three of them actually enjoy<br />
answering questions. “We are regularly<br />
surprised ourselves! For example,<br />
recently a customer told us that he has<br />
32 LNBs but could only access 30 of<br />
them.” A <strong>satellite</strong> viewer with 32 LNBs?<br />
That was new to them. Sure enough,<br />
<strong>satellite</strong> enthusiast Gerard van <strong>de</strong>n<br />
Braak in Eindhoven has two multifocus<br />
antennas with a total of 31 LNBs plus<br />
one LNB on a rotary dish.<br />
As it turned out, the AZBox had a<br />
software bug in its DiSEqC control that<br />
allowed the receiver to access 30 LNBs<br />
without any problems, just not the last<br />
2 LNBs. They would never have found<br />
out about unique problems such as this<br />
if they didn’t make themselves available<br />
to answer everyone’s questions.<br />
At the moment Smart Innovations<br />
wholesale <strong>de</strong>aler network is ma<strong>de</strong> up of<br />
25 active <strong>de</strong>alers in The Netherlands,<br />
five in Belgium and one in Luxembourg.<br />
We want to know what sales are like for<br />
the individual AZBox receiver mo<strong>de</strong>ls;<br />
Rinus Lindoorn looks at his books and<br />
says: “The AZBox Premium Plus makes<br />
up 50% of our sales, the Premium<br />
mo<strong>de</strong>l accounts for 30% while the Elite<br />
box makes up for 20%.” Those are all<br />
high <strong>de</strong>finition mo<strong>de</strong>ls.<br />
The actual tuner selection is rather<br />
interesting: “60% of AZBox receivers<br />
are <strong>de</strong>livered with <strong>satellite</strong> tuners, 30%<br />
come with combination <strong>satellite</strong> and<br />
cable tuners and the remaining 10%<br />
are strictly cable boxes.”<br />
We noticed that terrestrial tuners<br />
are not in the mix at all. Rinus Lindoorn<br />
confirms, “There’s hardly any <strong>de</strong>mand<br />
for terrestrial reception in Holland.”<br />
When the subject turned to the future,<br />
André Pelgrim finally had the opportunity<br />
to present a surprisingly new i<strong>de</strong>a:<br />
“The AZBox is the only receiver with<br />
a real 1080-line picture and therefore<br />
is the perfect match for top-of-the-line<br />
TVs.”<br />
What conclusion can be drawn from<br />
this? “One of the absolute best brand<br />
names available is, for example, Bang<br />
& Olufsen. But when you check out<br />
the remote control, you find out that it<br />
operates via Bluetooth while the AZBox<br />
works with Infrared.” The trio has thus<br />
come up with an interesting i<strong>de</strong>a: and<br />
that would be to work with a supplier<br />
of converters on a box that could convert<br />
Infrared to Bluetooth. “In this way<br />
we’re trying to make the AZBox recognizable<br />
with high-end TVs.”<br />
Smart Innovations is making quite a<br />
name for itself. All three business partners<br />
are <strong>satellite</strong> enthusiasts who are<br />
intimately familiar with the AZBox’s<br />
every <strong>de</strong>tail. They keep coming up with<br />
new i<strong>de</strong>as to make the AZBox even<br />
more popular. With such a <strong>de</strong>dicated<br />
sales team AZBox should continue to<br />
move upward in the marketplace!

Satbeams<br />
A Website for Professionals<br />
Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin has set some lofty goals for himself.<br />
He is the foun<strong>de</strong>r and operator of the satbeams.com<br />
website the main purpose of which is to reach the<br />
professionals. That’s a rather ambitious goal so we<br />
wanted to find out from him personally how he intends<br />
to reach it. We met up with him in Brussels, Belgium, the<br />
city he calls home.<br />
First we wanted to know how <strong>satellite</strong><br />
reception came into his life. He explains,<br />
“I’m originally from Moscow. I worked<br />
there as an IT manager for a big ‘Fast<br />
Moving Consumer Goods’ company. The<br />
company transferred me with my family<br />
to their European headquarters in Brussels<br />
back in 2001.”<br />
There Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin started to<br />
work as an IT consultant in the area of<br />
web infrastructure. In 2003 his <strong>de</strong>partment<br />
was outsourced to another big<br />
international company providing global<br />
IT services he continues to work as a<br />
Managed Web Service consultant.<br />
Working in another country is a big<br />
challenge and it was very important<br />
for Alexan<strong>de</strong>r to setup his first <strong>satellite</strong><br />
dish to receive Russian programs!<br />
“If we couldn’t receive Russian TV, my<br />
wife would be very upset and we would<br />
just pack and go back to Moscow”, jokes<br />
Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin. As it turns out, he<br />
has his wife to thank for getting his start<br />

■<br />
Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin, foun<strong>de</strong>r and operator of<br />
the satbeams website. In the lobby of a hotel in<br />
Brussels, Belgium, he uses his laptop to explain<br />
the functionality of satbeams.com.<br />
in <strong>satellite</strong> reception. “My first <strong>satellite</strong><br />
system consisted of an 80cm antenna<br />
that I used back then to receive SIRIUS<br />
at 4.8 east and HOTBIRD at 13 east”,<br />
he explains. Not long after that, he<br />
expan<strong>de</strong>d his system to 100cm.<br />
Meanwhile, Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin wanted<br />
to learn more about this mysterious<br />
technology. As his colleagues and friends<br />
also learned of his interest they began<br />
asking him more and more questions<br />
related to <strong>satellite</strong> reception. One thing<br />
led to another and he eventually became<br />
a <strong>satellite</strong> specialist.<br />
As Alexan<strong>de</strong>r worked most of the time<br />
with web technologies, he one day came<br />
across the i<strong>de</strong>a to combine <strong>satellite</strong> footprints<br />
with Google Maps. That was back
■<br />
An example from the satbeams.com website: the footprint of EUROBIRD 9A is projected online<br />
onto Google Maps. You can zoom into and out of the map with the footprints matching each<br />
individual map. Satbeams has created an electronic version of the footprint of every <strong>satellite</strong>.<br />
Professional users can license the data and then use the data on their own website.<br />
in 2006 and after few months of hesitation<br />
he <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to implement this i<strong>de</strong>a.<br />
“In the Fall of 2007 I contracted several<br />
talented programmers who helped me<br />
<strong>de</strong>velop the necessary software as well<br />
as electronically convert the <strong>satellite</strong><br />
footprints”, he explains. In the middle of<br />
2008 the web site went online with its<br />
first version. Initially, Alexan<strong>de</strong>r wanted<br />
to use the domain name “satcoverage”<br />
but a friend suggested that “satbeams”<br />
would be better. “That name is short,<br />
easy to remember and gets right to the<br />
point”, he says.<br />
At first Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin wanted to<br />
gear his website<br />
more<br />
■<br />
<br />
Brussels<br />
towards <strong>satellite</strong> DXers, in other words<br />
towards hobbyists. He implemented the<br />
solution that <strong>satellite</strong> DXers could click<br />
on their location via Google Maps and<br />
then enter in realistic reception results.<br />
But he wasn’t satisfied with the results<br />
and <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to re<strong>de</strong>sign the website. In<br />
July 2009 the new version of Satbeams<br />
went live.<br />
Now almost every <strong>satellite</strong> footprint<br />
from around the world was digitized and<br />
could be projected onto Google Maps.<br />
“Dozens of volunteers help me keep<br />
all of the <strong>satellite</strong> data up-to-date”, he<br />
says. So in addition to <strong>satellite</strong> technical<br />
<strong>de</strong>tails and footprints all of the associated<br />
transpon<strong>de</strong>r data is also displayed.<br />
Now he’s in the process of<br />
making his website more<br />
user-friendly. “I am focused<br />
on ‘usability’ to improve<br />
the user experience”, he<br />
explains, “you can search<br />
by channel name or your<br />
address and filter the<br />
104 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
charts by any field like ‘language’ or<br />
‘band’. All of the data is linked together<br />
and you can reach almost any information<br />
with just 2-3 clicks of the mouse.”<br />
Alexan<strong>de</strong>r is constantly thinking about<br />
how he can make his website even more<br />
user-friendly. “But above all I want to<br />
reach out to professionals and implement<br />
additional features that would be<br />
useful for them. For example <strong>satellite</strong><br />
provi<strong>de</strong>rs would be interested to know if<br />
their footprint overlaps with footprints of<br />
other <strong>satellite</strong>s.” So Alexan<strong>de</strong>r is thinking<br />
of the best way to overlay multiple<br />
footprints on the worlds map which would<br />
make it easy to see what <strong>satellite</strong>s cover<br />
the same area.<br />
He sees the future of Satbeams with<br />
specialised applications. “Interested<br />
companies could license the footprint<br />
data from me”, says Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin,<br />
“with the monthly licensing fee the footprint<br />
updates are locked in.”<br />
What kind of companies could use his<br />
services? “First and foremost would be<br />
Internet-via-Satellite provi<strong>de</strong>rs”, comments<br />
Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin, “Satbeam’s<br />
first customers came from this sector.<br />
The footprint data would also be interesting<br />
for uplink stations, for <strong>satellite</strong> provi<strong>de</strong>rs<br />
and also for SNG operators who<br />
need to find the proper footprint for their<br />
VSAT systems.”<br />
Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin discovered an<br />
interesting market segment with Satbeams.<br />
A website geared specifically<br />
towards the <strong>satellite</strong> professionals seems<br />
to be a very good i<strong>de</strong>a!<br />
This is what the home of Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Derjugin looks like. A Channelmaster 120cm antenna with a C-band and Ku-band LNB can be seen all the way to<br />
the left. This antenna is motorized and can be moved from 57 east to 45 west. A T90 multi<strong>satellite</strong> antenna is in the center and sports eight LNBs for<br />
reception of <strong>satellite</strong>s from 4.8 east to 53 east and all the way to the right is a 125cm antenna for 40 east reception.

Satellite DXer Pepsi from Chengdu, China<br />

Pepsi’s<br />
Dishes
■<br />
Satellite DXers are a rather new species in China. One<br />
of the select few is Pepsi in the city of Mengyang of<br />
Sichuan province in south-western China. Why would<br />
anybody choose the nickname Pepsi, you may ask? Well,<br />
that’s not difficult to guess: Pepsi used to work for the<br />
company by the same name.<br />
Where does the DXer live? Easy to guess, it’s<br />
the building on which antennas can even be<br />
seen from the street below. Pepsi’s apartment is<br />
in this mixed resi<strong>de</strong>ntial and business<br />
block, because here he can freely<br />
install antennas on the roof.<br />
<br />
DXers<br />
World<br />
He has since moved on and now<br />
holds a technician’s positions at a local<br />
packaging company, even though he<br />
still sticks to his nickname. We meet<br />
Pepsi for lunch at a typical restaurant<br />
in his hometown and he tells us how it<br />
all began: “I started out in 2004 with a<br />
1.5 m dish which I used to pick up signals<br />
from ASIASAT 3 at 105.5° East.”<br />
It was technology rather than content<br />
that got him hooked on this hobby. “I<br />
hardly ever watch TV,” Pepsi admits,<br />
“it’s rather the challenge of trying to<br />
receive even more <strong>satellite</strong>s that keeps<br />
me going.” This enthusiasm led to an<br />
increasing number of <strong>satellite</strong> dishes<br />
over the years. Next to several small<br />
dishes with diameters ranging from 45<br />
to 90 cm Pepsi also uses 1.8 and 2.4 m<br />
antennas.<br />
With great expectations and anticipation<br />
we take the trip to Pepsi’s place in<br />
a resi<strong>de</strong>ntial area of the city of Mengyang,<br />
some 40 km north of the capital<br />
of Sichuan province. Pepsi’s apartment<br />
is located on the second floor of the<br />
building and it becomes evi<strong>de</strong>nt right<br />
upon entering that watching TV is not<br />
exactly Pepsi’s favourite pastime. Only<br />
one TV set can be seen in the living<br />
room, but a total of six receivers. Pepsi<br />
loves the technical aspects of <strong>satellite</strong><br />
television, yet could hardly care less<br />
about what kind of content is transmitted.<br />
All of his antennas are mounted on<br />
the roof of the building’s staircase.<br />
“Here they don’t get in the way of anybody,<br />
and nobody gets in my way,”<br />
Pepsi explains. As a matter of fact, he<br />
purposely moved into this area so that<br />
he would be able to pursuit his hobby<br />
without restrictions. “Where I used to<br />
live before it was not possible to install<br />
large antennas,” says Pepsi. “It was my<br />
hobby that ma<strong>de</strong> me move to Mengyang.”<br />
Talk about commitment!<br />
Pepsi even spends his spare time<br />
helping other people install their <strong>satellite</strong><br />
dishes and he has become a<br />
well-established <strong>satellite</strong> expert even<br />
beyond his city.<br />
Eventually, his hobby might turn into<br />
his profession one day. “I am currently<br />
working on larger projects too, which<br />
involve supplying several apartments<br />

to make money out of his hobby, for which we wish him<br />
good luck.<br />

MUSEUM REPORT<br />

Radiomuseum Ringsted, Denmark<br />
A Satellite Expert’s<br />
Museum<br />
Alexan<strong>de</strong>r Wiese<br />
Over the course of many years <strong>satellite</strong> expert Bjarne Nielsen<br />
has worked up his reputation as Denmark’s ‘Mr. Satellite’. In<br />
retirement now, he has found a new passion in his position<br />
as organiser of and driving force behind the ‘Radiomuseum’<br />
in the small town of Ringsted, not far from the Danish capital<br />
Copenhagen. In a <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> exclusive Bjarne Nielsen opens<br />
the museum doors and recalls major events that shaped his life.<br />
Let’s start with a remarkable fact: For 15<br />
years Bjarne Nielsen was the publisher and<br />
editor-in-chief of Denmark’s first and only<br />
<strong>satellite</strong>-related magazine, with the last<br />
issue having appeared in the year 2005.<br />
“I published a total of 165 issues,” Bjarne<br />
Nielsen recalls. “Each magazine issue featured<br />
a test report and a company report,<br />
as well as an up-to-date frequency chart.”<br />
A peak circulation of 4000 was printed in<br />
2000 in the heyday of Bjarne’s magazine,<br />
but towards 2005 this number had <strong>de</strong>clined<br />
to 1400 copies. At the same time the Danish<br />
postal service <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to increase postage<br />
fees with the result that the whole magazine<br />
operation had become uneconomical.<br />
What ma<strong>de</strong> Bjarne Nielsen create and publish<br />
a <strong>satellite</strong> magazine in the first place?<br />
In 1966 he had began to work as a teacher<br />
at the Ringsted technical vocational school,<br />
covering the fields of TV and radio engineering<br />
– well... what else? One of his stu<strong>de</strong>nts<br />
ma<strong>de</strong> a career as service manager for Swedish<br />
company LUXOR in Motala, which in 1980<br />
was in the process of <strong>de</strong>veloping its first <strong>satellite</strong><br />
receiver. At the time, <strong>satellite</strong> receivers<br />
usually came from the United States.<br />
Bjarne Nielsen managed to obtain <strong>satellite</strong><br />
reception equipment from LUXOR and<br />
“in 1982 I was able for the very first time to<br />
watch <strong>satellite</strong> television thanks to a 2-metre<br />
dish,” he remembers. “I picked up Russian<br />
Three museums in a row in the Danish town of Ringsted:<br />
the Radiomuseum (centre), the mill museum (behind) and<br />
Ringsted local museum (right). Bjarne Nielsen runs the<br />
Radiomuseum.<br />
110 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
<br />
Ringsted<br />
(Copenhagen)<br />
TV from GORIZONT, transmitted in the 4<br />
GHz range.”<br />
Half a year later LUXOR invited him to its<br />
Motala headquarters and it was there that<br />
Bjarne Nielsen was able to see signals from<br />
OTS, the first European broadcasting <strong>satellite</strong>,<br />
with the help of a huge 3-metre antenna.<br />
All his efforts were focused on setting up<br />
a dish of his own and by the end of 1983 a<br />
1.8-metre antenna had become an addition<br />
to his house to receivee CS1 at 13° east.<br />
In case you’re still in doubt, we’re <strong>de</strong>aling<br />
with a serious case of <strong>satellite</strong> virus infection<br />
here, and in his role as a vocational teacher

Bjarne Nielsen took his chances and raised<br />
his stu<strong>de</strong>nts‘ interest for this new technology<br />
as well.<br />
However, it didn’t stop there. Danish companies<br />
<strong>de</strong>aling with <strong>satellite</strong> products were<br />
quick to see the potential of this <strong>de</strong>dicated<br />
teacher and asked him to organise technical<br />
seminars for engineers and installers. “In<br />
1984 and 1985 I held lots of 3-day seminars<br />
to teach more than 1000 professional installers<br />
how to set up <strong>satellite</strong> antennas,” Bjarne<br />
Nielsen proudly states. His school supported<br />
these activities as well, as they were counted<br />
as part of the teaching process. This eventually<br />
led to the establishment of a <strong>satellite</strong><br />
magazine in 1990. “My school was the official<br />
publisher and I was ‘only’ the editor,” he<br />
recalls laughingly because nonetheless, all of<br />
his free time was put into the magazine.<br />
“We even went so far as to stage our own<br />
<strong>satellite</strong> fair at the school,” he adds. “It took<br />
place in 1990 and we were proud to showcase<br />
virtually all Danish <strong>satellite</strong> companies.”<br />
The fair was repeated one more time, but as<br />
it was only successful from a technical point<br />
of view rather than from a financial aspect,<br />
it unfortunately had to be stopped after only<br />
two events.<br />
Let’s move on to an altogether different<br />
stage now and find out what in the world<br />
ma<strong>de</strong> Bjarne Nielsen run his own museum?<br />
“By my very nature as a teacher I was in<br />
touch with hundreds of young people, all of<br />
whom knew that I collected old TV and radio<br />
sets. Time and again they would come to<br />
school with a disused <strong>de</strong>vice, and I was all<br />
the more happy for it.” In all those years he<br />
never had to actually buy a radio or TV, each<br />
single one was donated.<br />
In 1998 Bjarne Nielsen came up with the<br />
i<strong>de</strong>a of displaying all those marvellous won<strong>de</strong>rs<br />
of technology in a <strong>de</strong>dicated museum,<br />
and in 2000 he was able to make that dream<br />
a reality. The Radiomuseum Ringsted was<br />
ready to open its doors! The building hosting<br />
the museum was ma<strong>de</strong> available by the<br />
municipality of Ringsted and lots of locals<br />
offered a helping hand to adapt the place for<br />
its new use as a museum.<br />
1. Celebrating 110 years: An EDISON<br />
phonograph dating back to the year 1900 is one<br />
of the collection’s highlights. This system uses<br />
a wax cylin<strong>de</strong>r to record sound.<br />
2. As early as 1936 company AEG invented a<br />
tape recor<strong>de</strong>r. The Radiomuseum features a unit<br />
that was manufactured in 1938.<br />
3. The BEOCORD from the year 1948 used<br />
steel wire rather than magnetic tape to record<br />
voices. “2.2 km of steel wire are wound up on<br />
a single roll. The wire is led through the <strong>de</strong>vice<br />
with a speed of 50 cm per second, which means<br />
2.2 km of wire provi<strong>de</strong> a recording time of one<br />
hour,” Bjarne Nielsen explains. “By the way,<br />
Danish inventor Val<strong>de</strong>mar Poulson had this<br />
system patented in 1898. At the time, however,<br />
the available technology was not ready for<br />
real-world implementation. For this you need<br />
amplifying which became available only with<br />
the invention of tubes.”
■<br />
With a microphone from 1942<br />
(the year of birth of Bjarne) it<br />
feels like time travel. That’s the<br />
way the pop stars of the time<br />
sang their songs on stage.<br />

“Some 500 items are on display here,”<br />
Bjarne Nielsen explains and directs our<br />
attention to a breathtaking range of TV and<br />
radio sets. But the real surprise is yet to<br />
come: “What you can see here is just 10% of<br />
what I have collected – a total of 5000 items<br />
are stored in a repository.” Now this is quite<br />
a revelation – where could Bjarne Nielsen<br />
possibly store so many items?<br />
We’re wasting our breath here: “In my old<br />
school, from which I retired five years ago.<br />
Much of the basement there is used up by my<br />
TVs and radios,” he says and smiles. In<strong>de</strong>ed,<br />
Bjarne Nielsen has collected an almost unbelievable<br />
range of different apparatus, and<br />
what makes his collection even more unique<br />
is the unexpected number of products ma<strong>de</strong><br />
by Danish companies. These days only few<br />
people are aware that Denmark used to<br />
boast a significant TV and radio industry in<br />
the past, because today hardly any of these<br />
companies are still in business.<br />
Enthusiasm and commitment don’t diminish<br />
with age, and Bjarne Nielsen is perfect<br />
proof of that. He has even started to publish<br />
a new magazine, only that this time it<br />
<strong>de</strong>als with historic TV and radio sets. Some<br />
may think of anybody with such a passion<br />
for old technology as an idiot, and Bjarne<br />
Nielsen happily picked up this notion for the<br />
title of his magazine. While he could not quite<br />
get himself to call it radio idiots, he went for<br />
Radioten instead. A community of ‘radiots’<br />
is in the making and Bjarne Nielsen gets<br />
together with like-min<strong>de</strong>d enthusiasts on a<br />
regular basis to restore old <strong>de</strong>vices. With a<br />
well of personal knowledge and expertise<br />
available with his co-collectors and with the<br />
help of measurement <strong>de</strong>vices from all times,<br />
the results of such restorations are nothing<br />
short of impressive.<br />
One of the unique aspects of the Radiomuseum<br />
is its technical capability to copy<br />
1. This portable radio is impressive proof<br />
of the state of technology 75 years ago. It<br />
was produced in 1935 and had to do without<br />
transistors and microchips of any kind.<br />
2. Danish company RUHE produced this TV<br />
set (right) in the year 1950. In 1949 first test<br />
broadcasts were transmitted from Copenhagen<br />
and these sets were ma<strong>de</strong> specifically for<br />
receiving these signals. “The official launch<br />
of TV in Denmark took place in 1951,” Bjarne<br />
Nielsen tells us. And what has seemingly fallen<br />
out of the TV to the left? “That’s the remote<br />
control,” he replies. What today is a standard<br />
feature for home entertainment <strong>de</strong>vices was<br />
a genuine sensation at the time. “Of course a<br />
remote control in the 1950s was not wireless<br />
but rather attached to the main set with a long<br />
cable, yet even an early mo<strong>de</strong>l such as that<br />
came with two buttons.” One might won<strong>de</strong>r<br />
what the remote control was used for back then.<br />
Surely it was for switching channels, right?<br />
“Are you kidding?” Bjarne answers. “There was<br />
only one channel available in the first years<br />
of television. One button was for adjusting<br />
volume, the other for brightness.” In a time<br />
and age with virtually thousands of <strong>satellite</strong><br />
channels at your fingertips isn‘t it hard to<br />
imagine a time when you had no choice at all?

old vi<strong>de</strong>o and audio tapes and save them<br />
on present-day storage media. “We have at<br />
hand vi<strong>de</strong>o recor<strong>de</strong>rs for all systems that<br />
have ever been on the market, and naturally<br />
we keep theses systems operational<br />
at all times.” Even ancient steel tapes can<br />
be played back – which comes as a genuine<br />
surprise. “Steel tape was the pre<strong>de</strong>cessor of<br />
magnetic tape and was used in the 1940s<br />
and 1950s.”<br />
Time and again audio and vi<strong>de</strong>o tapes<br />
from <strong>de</strong>ca<strong>de</strong>s ago pop up and the Radiomuseum<br />
is the place to go for playing back or<br />
copying their often valuable content. “This<br />
can be particularly interesting if the tapes<br />
inclu<strong>de</strong> recordings of company assemblies,<br />
for instance, and in some cases such historic<br />
content may even have legal ramifications.”<br />
In cases like this the Radiomuseum even<br />
bridges an existing market gap, as there<br />
are hardly any official institutions that keep<br />
age-old technology up and running the way<br />
Bjarne Nielsen does.<br />
In a time and age in which mo<strong>de</strong>rn <strong>satellite</strong><br />
receivers are discar<strong>de</strong>d after only a few years<br />
of use only to be replaced with yet another<br />
new <strong>de</strong>vice, a visit to the Radiomuseum<br />
in Ringsted is a step back in time. Mo<strong>de</strong>rn<br />
technology is put in perspective when you<br />
wan<strong>de</strong>r past a sheer endless number of old<br />
<strong>de</strong>vices, some of which still working after<br />
100 years – if maintained and serviced properly.<br />
Bjarne Nielsen and his helpers <strong>de</strong>finitely<br />
know how to do just that. His Radiomuseum<br />

1. Bjarne Nielsen uses the museum’s<br />
basement to keep all types of vi<strong>de</strong>o<br />
recor<strong>de</strong>rs up and running. All systems<br />
are perfectly maintained and can be<br />

WORLDSPACE COULD RELAUNCH<br />
WorldSpace plans to relaunch its services in South<br />
Africa if a bid by former chairman Noah Samara to<br />
buy the company is approved, according to local<br />
daily “Business Day”. WorldSpace, whose <strong>satellite</strong><br />
radio service was available in Europe, Africa<br />
and Asia, filed for bankruptcy protection in 2008<br />
after repeated failures to meet <strong>de</strong>bt obligations.

SAMSUNG DSR 9000 FTA<br />
In the search for a digital FTA receiver that is<br />
loa<strong>de</strong>d with features but is easy to use, the<br />
<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> <strong>International</strong> test group stumbled<br />
onto the SAMSUNG DSR9000 FTA. One of the<br />
requirements of this search was the automatic<br />
downloading of software updates via <strong>satellite</strong>.<br />
Receiver software is constantly being improved<br />
or updated and not every digital receiver<br />
owner has the ability to use a PC to upgra<strong>de</strong><br />
the receiver’s software via the serial interface.<br />
Samsung’s receivers are distributed worldwi<strong>de</strong><br />
and thus software upgra<strong>de</strong>s are ma<strong>de</strong> available<br />
through various <strong>satellite</strong>s around the world.<br />
In central Europe, the ASTRA<br />
<strong>satellite</strong> at 19.2° East can<br />
be used for this service.<br />
The silver colored chassis<br />
and the overall <strong>de</strong>sign of this<br />
receiver gives the impression<br />
that this is an expensive box.<br />
The four-digit display shows<br />
one of the 2000 possible<br />
channels and it can easily be<br />
seen even in bright sunlight.<br />
A round ring-button lets you<br />
change channels and adjust<br />
the volume without having<br />
to use the remote control.<br />
The backsi<strong>de</strong> of the box is<br />
also nicely laid out. The IF<br />
signal is looped-through<br />
allowing an additional<br />
receiver (analog) to be connected.<br />
Two Scart connectors<br />
let you connect the box to a TV and a VCR.<br />
Audio and vi<strong>de</strong>o outputs are also available via<br />
three RCA jacks. These could be used to connect<br />
additional equipment such as a TV projector.<br />
The serial interface can be used to upload new<br />
software into the receiver if for some reason<br />
it were not possible to do this via <strong>satellite</strong>.<br />
Terrestrial antenna signals are also looped-through<br />
and the onboard modulator (PAL B/G, I, K in our<br />
test mo<strong>de</strong>l) operates in the entire UHF range.<br />
The remote control sits comfortably in your hand<br />
with all functions clearly marked thus reducing<br />
the likelihood of pressing the wrong button.<br />
The first thing the receiver will do after it has<br />
been properly set up and configured for the<br />
existing antenna will be to look for new software.<br />
If a new update is available, it will just take<br />
a few minutes to complete the download.<br />
The actual installation of the receiver is extremely<br />
simple. It must be pointed out that - asi<strong>de</strong> from<br />
the easy-to-un<strong>de</strong>rstand menus - this receiver also<br />
has excellent graphics in its On-Screen display.<br />
As a worldwi<strong>de</strong> receiver, the DSR9000 FTA offers<br />
six different languages for its menus, EPG and<br />
soundtrack. If you happen to be using a Solarsat<br />
antenna (test report in <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> <strong>International</strong><br />
10-11/2000), you will<br />
find a special calculation<br />
program in the menu.<br />
After the antenna and LNB<br />
parameters are stored, the<br />
active <strong>satellite</strong>s can simply<br />
be selected. The integrated<br />
DiSEqC 1.2 allows the<br />
use of more than one LNB<br />
or can be used to drive<br />
an appropriate motor.<br />

<strong>de</strong>sired <strong>satellite</strong>s (up to 16) in one shot. Only<br />
about seven minutes was nee<strong>de</strong>d for the Scan<br />
function to handle 80 transpon<strong>de</strong>rs. If necessary<br />
the PID’s for vi<strong>de</strong>o, audio and PCR can<br />
be manually entered. It’s even possible to<br />
connect the receiver to a SMATV system.<br />
Once programmed, specific channels can be stored<br />
in three different priority lists. Consi<strong>de</strong>ring that this<br />
is a digital receiver, switching between channels is<br />
actually quite fast, on average about 1/2 second.<br />
Unfortunately, this still does not make for<br />
very good “Zapping”, but even if you were<br />
to try, you wouldn’t have to worry about<br />
any unexpected system hang-ups.<br />
In our tests, critical C-Band signals (1.9 Ms/<br />
sec) were easily handled without any loss of<br />
signal even though, according to the manufacturer,<br />
the box can handle 2-45 Ms/sec.<br />
The Electronic Program Gui<strong>de</strong> (EPG) is very nicely<br />
laid out. Here you can display current and future<br />
programming information. When switching between<br />
channels, a small transparent program information<br />
bar appears near the bottom of the screen<br />
providing channel name and current program data.<br />
A simple push of a button selects the proper<br />
soundtrack. The DSR9000 FTA is also Teletext<br />
compatible. Switching over to radio mo<strong>de</strong> can<br />
138 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
easily be done with the remote control. Program<br />
information will then appear on the screen and<br />
will also inclu<strong>de</strong> an attractive background.<br />
The EPG can also be accessed in this<br />
mo<strong>de</strong>. Unfortunately, the DSR9000 FTA<br />
does not have a digital audio output.<br />
While we were conducting our tests, new software<br />
version 105 became available and was<br />
uploa<strong>de</strong>d into the box via <strong>satellite</strong>. Several bugs<br />
that were in version 100 were fixed and there were<br />
also obvious improvements with Skyplex signal<br />
reception. With the DSR9000 FTA, Samsung has<br />
<strong>de</strong>veloped a truly user-friendly and easy-to-use<br />
receiver that is an excellent choice for anyone<br />
not interested in receiving Pay TV signals. Clean<br />
graphics and menus that are self-explanatory<br />
leave behind a lasting favorable impression.<br />
Once the box was upgra<strong>de</strong>d to version 105,<br />
there were no more lock-ups. Switching channels<br />
was better than average and the automatic<br />
scan function works quite fast.<br />
The receiver comes with a comprehensive<br />
user manual. If it were up to us, we would<br />
have liked to see a digital audio output and<br />
perhaps even a third Scart connector.<br />
The good local service provi<strong>de</strong>d by the regional<br />
importer is also a “plus” worth mentioning.
MediaCom FTA-Gold<br />
In our unceasing hunt for an easy-to-use free-toair<br />
(FTA) receiver with sufficient channel memory,<br />
C- and Ku-band compatibility, single and multi<br />
channel per carrier (SCPC/MCPC) capability and<br />
the ability to control a mechanical C/Ku polarizer,<br />
we came across the MediaCom FTA Gold.<br />
Free-to-air means that we need not waste any<br />
time looking for some CI module slots to allow<br />
the reception of PAY-TV. The dark and stylish<br />
front panel inclu<strong>de</strong>s a light green display showing<br />
the selected channel number. The FTA Gold<br />
has more than sufficient storage capacity with a<br />
3000 channel memory for TV and an additional<br />
2000 channel memory for digital <strong>satellite</strong> radio.<br />
Six unpretentious keys allow operating the<br />
receiver without the remote. On the back panel<br />
the first feature that catches the attention are<br />
the quick-clamps for connecting a mechanical<br />
polarizer. This is very important for combined<br />
C and Ku-band reception. The receiver also<br />
allows for the standard configuration with 13/17<br />
Volt switching of the polarization angles<br />
The IF from the antenna can be looped through and<br />
thus ma<strong>de</strong> available to an additional receiver. Unfortunately<br />
the “two-scart” solution seems to have<br />
won over most manufacturers of digital <strong>satellite</strong><br />
receivers, including MediaCom for the FTA Gold.<br />
Analog stereo is output from two RCA connections<br />
and an additional connection <strong>de</strong>livers the<br />
vi<strong>de</strong>o signal. A programmable 0/12 Volt output is<br />
available for external switches. The serial interface<br />
is <strong>de</strong>signed to permit upgrading the operating<br />
software, but it could just as well be used to copy<br />
the SatcoDX channel information into the box.<br />
Unfortunately the receiver we tested was<br />
not yet SatcoDX compatible. A terrestrial TV<br />
signal is looped through and an UHF modulator<br />
can be tuned over the complete UHF range.<br />
All PAL mo<strong>de</strong>s and NTSC are supported.<br />
The remote control <strong>de</strong>serves special praise.<br />
The buttons are clearly labelled and the layout is<br />
very logical. With a touch of a button the screen<br />
image can be frozen which is a useful feature.<br />
First of all the language of the on-screen display<br />
(OSD) menu can be selected from five<br />
available languages, including Arabic. The<br />
OSD can be changed into transparent mo<strong>de</strong><br />
in five steps and the time-outs for the graphics<br />
can be individually set. The brightness of<br />
the vi<strong>de</strong>o is also adjustable in five steps.<br />
The FTA Gold is pre-set for almost all <strong>satellite</strong>s<br />
around the world. All that is left to do is set up the<br />
local oscillator frequencies (LOF) for one or several<br />
LNBs. Ten sets of values are already stored in the<br />
software but of course the parameters can also be<br />
freely selected. The various LNBs and the corresponding<br />
dish motor are controlled with DiSEqC 1.2.<br />
The search function can be performed either in<br />
‘normal’ mo<strong>de</strong> (to find all signals) or in ‘FTA’ mo<strong>de</strong>,<br />
where only clear or unencrypted signals will be<br />
found. After the initial scan, any time later you can<br />
use the ‘update’ function to scan all transpon<strong>de</strong>rs<br />
for new signals without overwriting pre-existing<br />
and unchanged channels. The receiver takes eight<br />
minutes to search an 80-transpon<strong>de</strong>r <strong>satellite</strong>.<br />
The graphic <strong>de</strong>sign of the search menu is particularly<br />
good. Individual transpon<strong>de</strong>rs can be searched<br />
for channels using the manual search mo<strong>de</strong>. It is<br />
also possible to key in the PID parameters manually.<br />
After a complete scan there are usually some channels<br />
to be <strong>de</strong>leted, moved or ad<strong>de</strong>d to the favourite<br />
list. It is also possible to ‘lock’ certain channels.<br />
The editing menu displays the channel being<br />
edited in a small window on the screen and lists<br />
all technical specifications at the same time. All<br />
these features are very easy to use. In addition,<br />
there is an on-screen keyboard which can<br />
be used to name and rename the channels. Of<br />
course the same facility is available for all radio<br />
stations that have been found in the search.<br />
Once the receiver is set up and programmed,<br />
switching between channels takes 1.2 seconds,<br />
which is not very fast. It has to be mentioned in that<br />
context, however, that some <strong>de</strong>lays are caused<br />
by the broadcaster having changed the packet<br />
information data (PID). This means that the receiver<br />
has to <strong>de</strong>tect the correct parameters first from the<br />
data stream. When changing channels the most<br />
significant data about the channel (if provi<strong>de</strong>d) and<br />
the time are on shown screen for a few seconds.<br />
The FEC, polarization and PID data are also shown.<br />
Certain channels can be ad<strong>de</strong>d to the favourites<br />
list and can then be accessed quickly<br />
by pressing a corresponding button on the<br />
remote. There is a sleep mo<strong>de</strong>, which can set<br />
to shut down the receiver after a period of time<br />
for all those day or night couch potatoes.<br />
The MediaCom FTA Gold <strong>de</strong>serves our Global<br />
Approval without any qualifications. Features<br />
like mechanical polarizer control, SCPC compatibility,<br />
global <strong>satellite</strong> memory and C/Ku-band<br />
reception make it a really universal box.<br />
At the same time it is easy to use and has a very<br />
well <strong>de</strong>signed on-screen menu plus online help.<br />
It is an i<strong>de</strong>al FTA receiver for the whole family<br />
because everybody will be able to use it. The<br />
handbook explains all steps of the installation<br />
and operation in an easy-to-un<strong>de</strong>rstand way.<br />
During the exten<strong>de</strong>d testing there were no system<br />
crashes. Unfortunately this is still not always<br />
the case when talking about digital receivers.<br />

AMT Sat Cruiser DSR-301CI<br />
The situation with channel scanning in the<br />
<strong>satellite</strong> TV world is not entirely unknown: you<br />
have the frequency, but all the other data is<br />
missing. The FEC and Symbolrate values are<br />
not always available in the charts, especially<br />
when it involves a brand new feed-signal.<br />
Even the best <strong>satellite</strong> receiver doesn’t provi<strong>de</strong><br />
much help here. The only solution would<br />
seem to be a receivers Band-Scan function.<br />
Unfortunately, this isn’t all that much fun, since<br />
this type of scan could take the entire night and<br />
by then that feed has already disappeared.<br />
But with the new Sat Cruiser DSR-301CI from AMT,<br />
search technology has taken a giant step forward.<br />
In a special menu, all you need to do is enter the<br />
frequency of the signal - nothing else is nee<strong>de</strong>d.<br />
After only a few minutes all possible symbolrates<br />
have been scanned and even the FEC values<br />
are un<strong>de</strong>r control. The result is a new, unlisted<br />
channel. This is an important feature that<br />
<strong>de</strong>served to be highlighted right from the start.<br />
This receiver is <strong>de</strong>signed to be used as an<br />
FTA/CI unit. With the right CI module and<br />
appropriate card, this box can be used for<br />
Pay TV reception. Otherwise, it will work just<br />
fine as an FTA receiver. One drawback: only<br />
a meager 1000 channels are available.<br />
Since this box is DiSEqC compatible, multiple<br />
LNB’s or antennas can be connected. It won’t<br />
be long before you run out of memory space.<br />
The nicely shaped, silver-colored cabinet<br />
has two flaps on the front panel that hi<strong>de</strong> the<br />
CI slots and the auxiliary control buttons.<br />
These buttons can be used to program the<br />
box if the remote control <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>s it doesn’t<br />
want to play anymore. The green four-digit<br />
display shows the current channel.<br />
The backsi<strong>de</strong> of the unit is fitted with<br />
all the usual standard equipment.<br />
The IF is looped-through and two Scart connectors<br />
together with three RCA jacks link the<br />
receiver to external audio/vi<strong>de</strong>o equipment.<br />
A fourth RCA jack provi<strong>de</strong>s the controlled<br />
0/12 volt output.<br />
The modulator operates in all the different PAL formats<br />
across the entire UHF range. In NTSC mo<strong>de</strong>,<br />
the modulator switches over to channel 3 or 4.<br />
The serial interface allows new software and<br />
updated program data (SatcoDX compatibility<br />
coming soon) to be uploa<strong>de</strong>d.<br />
When the box is first placed into service, you will be<br />
prompted to select a language to be used for the<br />
On-Screen display (OSD) and the audio sub-carrier.<br />
From English to German, Farsi, Arabic and even<br />
Russian, most of the important languages are available.<br />
An extra special feature is the integrated PAL/<br />
NTSC converter. Depending on the TV being used,<br />
PAL, NTSC or AUTO can be selected. The colors<br />
of the OSD can be set for two individual users.<br />
The European version of this receiver is pre-programmed<br />
with 13 <strong>satellite</strong>s with room for 10 more.<br />
The LNB’s are matched with the proper local<br />
oscillator frequencies (LOF’s). The receiver’s<br />
menu has the universal and standard values<br />
already pre-programmed into the box. Other<br />
LOF values can be manually entered.<br />
The subsequent scan of an 80-transpon<strong>de</strong>r system<br />
lasted only seven minutes. The scan can be set<br />
up to search for “FTA-only” or “All” channels. Individual<br />
transpon<strong>de</strong>rs can likewise be activated. If it<br />
becomes necessary to enter in PID data manually,<br />
a corresponding menu is available. At this point the<br />
enormously helpful automatic symbolrate search<br />
function is certainly worth mentioning again. The<br />
Sat Cruiser accepts symbolrates anywhere between<br />
2 and 45 Ms/sec and was even able to work with<br />
a 1.8 Ms/sec signal (SCPC) with no difficulty.<br />
The DSR-301CI is packed with a very powerful<br />
editing function. Programs can be quickly and<br />
easily moved, <strong>de</strong>leted or even temporarily blocked.<br />
Priority channels can be quickly stored in a special<br />
list. An integrated “typewriter” lets you add names<br />
to stored channels and <strong>satellite</strong>s. With a 0.7 second<br />
channel switching time, this receiver is one of the<br />
faster ones. Holding down the channel selection<br />
button does not seem to bother the Sat Cruiser as<br />
it does not seek revenge by locking-up on you.<br />
To prevent the DSR-301CI from being improperly<br />
used by the younger generation, the box can be set<br />
140 <strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong> — Global Digital TV <strong>Magazine</strong> — 10-11/2010 — www.<strong>TELE</strong>-<strong>satellite</strong>.com<br />
up to block specific programs from a particular age<br />
group. In our test, a 12 year old managed to find his<br />
way to an inappropriate channel in just four minutes.<br />
The Sat Cruiser DSR-301CI from ATM is a solid,<br />
easy-to-use family receiver able to receive free<br />
(FTA) and Pay TV (all known CI systems) signals.<br />
But this box even has something to offer to more<br />
knowledgeable users with its manual PID entry<br />
and its symbolrate automation. It is a little weak<br />
at the knees with its 1000 channels; a little more<br />
would have been better. The user-manual serves<br />
as an excellent gui<strong>de</strong> during the installation and<br />
using it on a daily basis is nothing more than<br />
child’s play. Thanks to the regional pre-programming,<br />
the NTSC/PAL selection, the language<br />
choices and the universal power supply, the<br />
DSR-301CI is truly useable worldwi<strong>de</strong>.
ATTISAT Satellite Systems<br />
In 1997 <strong>satellite</strong> communication specialists and<br />
investors met in Athens. One si<strong>de</strong> brought with<br />
them a concept and the other brought the necessary<br />
solutions to make the project a reality.<br />
The goal was the <strong>de</strong>sign, the production and the<br />
distribution of a flat antenna. At first this doesn’t<br />
sound like anything special since similar antennas<br />
already exist on the market. What appeals<br />
to the investors is the plan to create a product<br />
in<strong>de</strong>pendant of subcontractors. Likewise with<br />
manufacturing technology, they also wanted to go<br />
there own way. Almost every production machine<br />
and test station should be their own <strong>de</strong>sign.<br />
This is a further step towards in<strong>de</strong>pendance.<br />
With the product came the thought that the antenna<br />
should not be re-invented, instead it should stand<br />
out from the rest of the field through first class<br />
quality and <strong>de</strong>sign flexibility induced by customer<br />
suggestions. The flat antennas that are currently<br />
available have problems with both their life-expectancy<br />
- they are not always weather-proof - and<br />
with uniform gain across the entire Ku-Band.<br />
Specialists and Investors joined forces and the<br />
result was the formation of the internationally<br />
reknowned company ATTISAT Satellite Systems.<br />
They are strategically located between the city<br />
center and the airport in Athens where the Flat<br />
antenna is produced. Over three years have<br />
passed since this company was formed. Their<br />
antenna has gained recognition in the market<br />
and the plan is to ramp up production to about<br />
200,000 per year. The investors, who have thus far<br />
contributed nearly 1,000,000 Euros to this effort,<br />
have not regretted their <strong>de</strong>cision. In a mo<strong>de</strong>rn<br />
building, the FL 500 is manually assembled<br />
using a cleverly <strong>de</strong>signed system. Through the<br />
use of special markings on each piece, mistakes<br />
have been virtually eliminated. At the end of the<br />
production line, every antenna must un<strong>de</strong>rgo a<br />
thorough test. Various <strong>satellite</strong>s from around the<br />
world can be simulated with signal generators.<br />
If an antenna does not perform as expected,<br />
it is removed, dismantled and analysed<br />
to <strong>de</strong>termine “why” so that the same fault<br />
does not occur again in the future.<br />
Team spirit among the employees is a major reason<br />
why they can ship a quality product. None of them<br />
have an 8 to 5 job, instead, the hours they work<br />
are based on the daily requirments. Delivery<br />
problems have been for the most part eliminated.<br />
ATTISAT is also involved in the <strong>de</strong>velopement<br />
of V-Sat systems, the manufacture of<br />
microwave <strong>de</strong>vices and the <strong>de</strong>velopement and<br />
production of RX/TX outdoor systems for Internet/Multimedia<br />
via <strong>satellite</strong>. They also have their<br />
own R&D (Research and Development) <strong>de</strong>partment<br />
whose function is to handle <strong>de</strong>velopement<br />
contracts from customers in the Satcom industry.<br />
