EVS-EN 60728-5:2008

This part of IEC 60728 defines the characteristics of equipment used in the headends of terrestrial broadcast and satellite receiving systems (without satellite outdoor units and without those broadband amplifiers in the headend as described in IEC 60728-3). The satellite outdoor units for FSS are described in ETSI ETS 300 158, for BSS in ETSI ETS 300 249. Test methods for both types (FSS and BSS) of satellite outdoor units are laid down in ETSI ETS 300 457. This standard •  covers the frequency range 5 MHz to 3 000 MHz, •  identifies performance requirements for certain parameters, •  lays down data publication requirements for certain parameters, •  stipulates methods of measurements; •  introduces minimum requirements defining quality grades (Q-grades).
