fare. For å unngå dette skal det ved tilkopling av utstyret til kabel-TV nettet
installeres en galvanisk isolator mellom utstyret og kabel-TV nettet.
Translation to Swedish:
"Utrustning som är kopplad till skyddsjord via jordat vägguttag och/eller via
annan utrustning och samtidigt är kopplad till kabel-TV nät kan i vissa fall med-
fõra risk fõr brand. Fõr att undvika detta skall vid anslutning av utrustningen till
kabel-TV nät galvanisk isolator finnas mellan utrustningen och kabel-TV nätet."

6 Introduction
6.1 Short Description
The LogoSat LST6100 Broadcast Satellite Modem is the next generation DVB-S2 and DVB-S
modem specifically designed for broadcast applications. The modem supports the S2 Exten-
sions to achieve barrier-breaking efficiency. This release R2.0 supports multistream demodu-
lation. From release R2.1 onwards, the unit can act as a modulator, demodulator or modem.
As a modulator, it is the best fit for broadcast direct-to-home, primary distribution to head-
ends and contribution of television and radio content. As a modem or demodulator, it is typ-
ically installed in head-ends or at both sides of a contribution link. The LST6100 can be used
in conjunction with set-top boxes, professional IRD’s or professional satellite demodulators
such as the LogoSat AZ910.
Delivering the Highest Uptime for Vital Links
Uptime and reliability are essential in the design of the modem, taking a vital role in the satel-
lite network. Input source redundancy and the shortest redundancy switch-over times of
modems, operating both in 1+1 and N+1 topologies, are setting the standard in our industry.
Advanced capabilities are built in such as a built-in MPEG Transport Stream analyser, support
of SMPTE 2022 FEC at the GbE inputs (for distributed IP headends), and native support of Car-
rier ID according to the new DVB standard as well as in the transport stream NIT Table. Spe-
cial care was taken to cope with jittery transport stream over IP inputs. The 6 ASI ports are
programmable as inputs or outputs allowing for monitoring as well as operational ASI ports.
Get the Best Performance and Lower your Costs
The Broadcast Satellite Modem performs among the best, offering unmatched bandwidth
efficiency optimization options, thereby lowering overall Total Cost of Ownership. The fully
automated operation of LogoSat´s field-proven Equalink® pre-distortion technology, provid-
ing up to 10% bandwidth gains, is now available for any satellite transmission application.
Clean Channel TechnologyTM, in combination with S2 Extensions, improve satellite efficiency
by up to 15%, thereby enabling much smaller carrier spacing. Maximum symbol rates up
to 72 Mbaud and modulations up to 64APSK (S2 extensions) combined with VCM (Variable
Coding and Modulation) allow for maximum throughput in large contribution links.The unit
allows transmitting and receiving simultaneously up to four transport stream(s) in full com-
pliance with the DVB standards. At the output of the Broadcast Satellite Modem, the signal is
available in IF or extended L-band (950 MHz-2150 MHz), providing a compact and cost effect-
ive solution. A switchable 10 MHz reference signal and optional 24V or 48V DC for an out-
door BUC is multiplexed on the L-band interface. The input is dual L-band or as an option
70/140MHz and single L-band.
The Broadcast Satellite Modem can be easily monitored and controlled via a comprehensive
front panel menu, advanced web GUI as well as via SNMP protocol. This enables easy integra-
tion into any industry-standard EMS/NMS system.
Evolve Towards Tomorrow's Technology
Built upon flexible and latest generation programmable technology, the LST6100 Broadcast
Satellite Modem is a future-proof building block that lets any satellite network evolve to the
next level of capabilities. A scalable, pay-as-you-grow, licensing and software upgrade mech-

anism facilitates the launch of new services, or last minute network design changes, without
rebuilding the entire network infrastructure. Migration from ASI to GbE and IF to L-band is
facilitated by simple in-field installation of license keys. Migration of standard distribution
links towards S2 Extensions can be as simple as inserting a LST6100 modem in the head-ends
while keeping the installed base of IRDs.
Additional capabilities such as DVB-S2 extensions and others are anticipated to become avail-
able on the platform as the standardization efforts materialise in the near future. The brand
new DVB-CID carrier identifier is already available as a software option on the LST6100.
