2.2 Description
The headend base units are a modular systems for receiving and transforming digital TV and radio
programs. Due to the modular, plug-in system, it is possible to equip the base plate with up to 4 or 8
headend modules.
The receiving signals are supplied to the modules by using a multiswitch or optional input splitters (2/3/4
and 8x). The headend modules provide the required LNB supply and control voltages.
The signals converted in the modules are combined in the active output combiner. The power is supplied
to the modules via the active output combiner.
The active output combiner of the SKS 4-00 and 4-01 has 1 DC socket. This DC socket supplies modules
1-4.
The active output combiner of the SKS 8-00 has 2 DC sockets. One on the left and one on the right. The
left DC socket supplies modules 1-4, the right DC socket modules 5-8.
The head end is programmed using the enclosed remote control. The different programming steps are
shown in an onscreen menu on the receiver or TV screen.

The received digital signals are
converted to PAL, DVB-C (QAM) or
DVB-T (COFDM). Due to the existing in-
house cable structure, all participants can
receive programs transmitted per satellite
without having to replace splitters, cables
and sockets.
Alternatively, the modulator modules can
be plugged in. The cassette modulates
audio/video signals in two BK channels.
Consequently, signals of CCD monitoring
cameras, video cameras or DVD players,
for example, can be injected in the
distribution network.
