2.5.4 Switch Port (J6) [MS3112E10-6S]
When used in a 1:1 redundant system, the waveguide switch must be connected to the switch
port of each amplifier (MS3112E10-6S
)
. See
Table 2-5
. It mates with MS3116F10-6P.
2.5.5 RF Output (J2)
The RF Output is brought out through waveguide in the Compact Outdoor Amplifier.
Figure

shows the output of a C-Band Compact Outdoor Amplifier. The Ku-Band amplifiers have a
WR75 grooved flange, while the C-Band and X-Band amplifiers have CPR style grooved
flanges (CPRG-137 for C-Band; CPRG-112 for X-Band). Ka-Band amplifiers utilize a WR28
grooved flange. S-Band units are fitted with Type N (F) connectors at the RF Output.
