System Architecture & Distribution Chain

Deliver satellite TV and IP services over a unified fiber infrastructure — from central signal processing to building-level distribution.

Satellite Gateway – Processes up to 32 transponders from two satellite positions (4+4 inputs) into a single SAT/IF band optimized for fiber transport.
Optical Satellite Transmitter (OTXS) – Converts RF to 1550 nm optical signal. Reliable transport up to 50 km without intermediate amplification.
Optical Amplifier (EDFA) – Amplifies SAT signals to 20 dBm to overcome high split ratios and long distances
Optical Multiplexer / Demultiplexer (OMX) – Combines SAT and GPON wavelengths on the outbound fiber, separates them on the inbound side. Passive, no power required.
Optical Line Terminal (OLT) – Manages GPON traffic between the core network and connected ONUs. Standard GPON protocol, interoperable with common ONU models.
Optical Splitters assive signal distribution to multiple units. No power, no active components in the distribution path.
Optical Receiver (ORX) Recovers the RF signal at the building or home. Direct RF output to TVs or STBs; GPON continues on to the IP side for broadband services.

Single Fiber, Two Services: The entire chain is designed so that one physical fiber carries both services end-to-end. No hybrid cabling, no parallel runs.
