DCSS
Description:
DCSS
Digital Channel Stacking system: signal distribution system using frequency transposition.
Used in satellite distribution for multiple or single dwelling, with several set top boxes.
To give several receptors access to the whole spectrum and all polarizations, you need
one coaxial cable
per receptor
and a suitable installation (multiple LNB, Quattro and multi-switches).
The
DCSS system
allow to feed dwellings with one or more satellites using only one coaxial cable
(
SCD=SINGLE CABLE DISTRIBUTION
).
The DCSS is an extension of the DiSEqC protocol that allows the connection of several receptors on
only
one
coaxial cable
, no matter the band (H/L) and the polarization (H/V).
Functioning:
Each satellite receptor uses a fix frequency band (
Slot
or
Port
), whose width is (more or less) equal to the
width of the transponder.
The receptor requires a specific transponder frequency (frequency Ku) via a DiSEqC command.
Some equipment on the satellite dish (LNB or switch) moves the requested signal to the center of the select-
ed band (
Slot
). Then, the mixing equipment adds each user band (
Slot
) to only one output (up to 32 user
bands).
