Global quad and quatro virtual converters.

Global Fibre IRS GTU virtual quad converter.



Optical LNBs are needed for long cable runs. If the cable run is over 70m an optical LNB may be needed. An optical
fibre cable connects to the LNB and this can go direct to this interface or it can be split using optical splitters. Either way it must
connect to an optical to electrical interface (called a Virtual Converter") and there are two types. This one has a quad output
(the same as a quad LNB). The other type (below) has a quatro output (same as a quatro LNB). The quad output can feed
4 single tuner satellite receivers or two twin tuner satellite receivers. The quatro interface ("Virtual Quatro Converter")
below feeds into a multiswitch and then as many outputs as are needed can then be provided by the correct multiswitch.
Multiswitches can have up to 48 outputs but more than one multiswitch can be used if more than 48 outputs are required.
Optical fibre cable is difficult to terminate without the correct tool and so it is best to order pre-made optical cables
with the connectors already fitted. Make sure the pre-made cable is long enough for the job! Too long is not a problem as
there is zero loss. It is also possible to overload the electrical interface and so an optical attenuator should be fitted.
This is needed if only one optical fibre cable runs from the LNB directly to the interface ("virtual converter"). It may
not be needed if optical splitters are being used as they may provide sufficient attenuation.
Our technical department can provide advice on balancing the system's gain and attenuation levels.

Global Fibre IRS GTU virtual quatro converter.



Converts the optical signal from an optical LNB to 4 (quatro)
electrical outputs (the same as a quatro LNB). Outputs are vertical high band,
vertical low band, horizontal high band and horizontal low band.

Optical LNBs are needed for long cable runs. If the cable run is over 70m an optical LNB may be needed.
An optical fibre cable connects to the LNB and this can go direct to the electrical interface or it can be split using
optical splitters. Either way it must connect to an optical to electrical interface called a "virtual converter". There
are two types. This one has a quatro output (the same as a quatro LNB) and the other (above) has a quad output
and is called a Virtual Quad Converter and is the same as a quad LNB. This quatro interface
("Virtual Quatro Converter") feeds into a multiswitch and then as many outputs as
are needed can then be provided by the correct multiswitch. Multiswitches can have up to 48 outputs but
more than one multiswitch can be used if more than 48 outputs are required. Optical fibre cable is difficult to

one optical fibre cable runs from the LNB directly to the interface ("virtual converter").
It may not be needed if optical splitters are being used as they may provide sufficient attenuation.
Our technical department can provide advice on balancing the system's gain and attenuation levels.
If only 4 normal outputs are needed (like a quad LNB) use the ("Virtual Quad Converter") above.
