Appendix B. LBC-4000
REDUNDANCY OPERATION
B.1
Introduction
The LBC‐4000 L‐Band Up/Down Converter System with Ethernet can optionally be configured for
redundant system operation. This appendix provides detailed information for cabling and
otherwise configuring the LBC‐4000 for 1:1 redundancy.
B.2
Redundancy Operations Overview
• Figure B‐1 provides a functional schematic for LBC‐4000 redundant operation.
• Figure B‐2 illustrates the cabling requirements for redundant operation.
Note the following:
o
BNC connections, where applicable, use 50Ω BNC male‐to‐male cables.
o
It is recommended that all Type ‘N’ to Type ‘SMA’ cable connections are best
accomplished using a Type ‘N’ male to Type ‘SMA’ female adapter, then using Type
‘SMA’ female‐to‐female cables.
• Sect. B.3 addresses the control and configuration of an LBC‐4000 Redundancy System
via the LBC‐4000 front panel.
• Sect. B.4 addresses the control and configuration of an LBC‐4000 Redundancy System
via the LBC‐4000 Web Server Interface.
• Sect. B.5 addresses the control and configuration of an LBC‐4000 Redundancy System
via serial remote control.
