What is the Norsat 3120 C-Band NI i3000F-G?
The Norsat 3120 C-Band LNB is a high-performance device that downconverts satellite signals in the C-Band frequency range to a lower frequency, which is easier to process by a satellite receiver. The “NI” designation is for Non-Integrated LNBs, i.e., it does not have an internal power supply, which provides greater flexibility in system design. The i3000F-G suffix denotes a particular configuration that accommodates higher performance parameters.
Key Features
Low Noise Figure
The 3120 has a noise figure as low as 15 Kelvin (K), necessary for picking up weak signals with little interference.
Stability and Accuracy
With frequency stability as tight as ±10 kHz, this LNB ensures accurate signal conversion, necessary for high-throughput satellite (HTS) systems.
Heavy-Duty Build Quality
Built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, it’s perfect for installations in remote or hostile climates.
Custom Frequency Options
The i3000F-G model has LO frequency and filter capabilities that are user-programmable to accommodate individual operational requirements.
High Linearity and Gain
High linearity guarantees signal integrity, while high gain (~60 dB) facilitates the safe reception of long-distance signals.
Applications of the Norsat 3120 C-Band LNB
The Norsat 3120 LNB finds extensive use in industries that require satellite communication. Some of the major areas of application include:
Television Broadcasting
Guarantees signal clarity for TV networks and TV stations that depend on C-Band satellite feeds.
Data Transmission & Internet Backbone
Facilitates satellite internet connectivity in remote locations where fiber is not an option.
Maritime and Aviation
Offers reliable, continuous connectivity to ships and aircraft using specialized satellite terminals.
Disaster Recovery & Emergency Services
Supports speedy deployment of communication systems in natural disaster-stricken regions or war zones.
