The  12m  antenna,  a  synthetic  Cassegrain  dual-reflector  antenna  models  SCB37-120, 

SCB107-120  and  SCB107E-120,  adopts  some  new  technologies,  such  as  high-

performance corrugated horn and broadband microwave network, etc.  

The antenna performance meets the requirements of ITU-R/ITU-T

INTELSAT IESS-207 

and  Resolution  572  of  Anatel  standards.  It  is  not  only  provided  with  many  excellent 

electric  performances,  such  as  high  efficiency,  low  sidelobe,  low  cross  polarization, low 

Voltage standing waves ratio (VSWR), high G/T value, but also with excellent characters 

including  appropriate  structural  design,  strong  wind  resistance  ability,  beautiful 

appearance  and  high  tracking  accuracy.  It  is  a  new  generation  satellite  communication 

antenna. 

This manual is applicable for the follow models of antenna: 

 SCB37-120: C-Band Cassegrain 12 meters antenna for Circular or Linear Polarization; 

 SCB107-120: Ku-Band Cassegrain 12 meters antenna for Linear Polarization; 

 SCB107E-120: Extend Ku-Band Cassegrain 12 meters antenna for Linear Polarization;
