Compact, Functional Design
AnaCom's Protection System integrates all necessary functions
into a small, highly integrated out-door package (see next
page) which is designed to give highly reliable service
in a wide range of environments.
The Protection Controller is fully contained in a single,
small out door box with manual over-ride controls. Although
normally intended for un-manned, automatic operation, the
switch can be locally (or remotely) over-ridden to place a
particular TX or RX switch (or both) on line and defeat the
normal "switch-on-alarm" mode of operation. A single push-button
(or remote command) returns the unit to completely automatic
operation.
AnaCom's Protection Switch System provides a high reliability
1 for 1 Hot-Standby configuration for the ANASAT C and Ku-Band
transceivers. The Protection Switch System is ruggedly built
for continuous outdoor duty in all types of environments.
The Protection Controller is designed for simple, intuitive
operation. TX and RX switches function independently.
The Protection System consists of a Protection Controller
out-door box, and WR-229 and WR-137 waveguide switches for
C-Band applications, or a pair of WR-75 waveguide switches
for Ku-Band applications. Both switches include waveguide
terminations for the off-line equipment. Only a single RS232/1485
interface cable is required to interface to indoor computer/dumb
terminal.
