[SatBroadcasting(tm)] Hiltron GmbH will promote its full range of products and services to the Middle East and North Africa broadcast and telecoms market at CABSAT MENA, Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre, February 8th thru 10th, 2011, at Stand S2-A11.
Hiltron‘s primary role is the provision of turnkey systems including design, manufacturing, supply, installation, commissioning, training and support. The company offers complete solutions for fixed and mobile microwave broadcast links; DVB MPEG DSNG systems; L-band and IF-band fibre-optic systems; DVB-T encoding and multiplexing headends; ATM/SDH/PDH/IP transport networks; DVB-S/S2 satellite uplink stations for TV, radio and data transmission; VSAT systems, TVRO systems for cable headends or terrestrial retransmission; and IPTV headend antenna systems. The latest addition to the Hiltron product range is the HDCU-E, a combined ice-sensing and dish-heating system for use with large satellite antennas in high-altitude or high-latitude locations. It is capable of handling up to 450 kW of heating power assigned across multiple heating groups. Each group is divided into three independently controlled heater arrays. Each array in turn feeds up to three antenna heater circuits. A four-group configuration, for example, allows control of 12 arrays addressing a total of 36 heating circuits. This modular control approach permits easy configuration of parameters such as antenna size, number of heater pads and the power requirement of each pad. Snow detection is via a reflective sensor with a polarising filter.
