Here are some common symptoms we see when a satellite ground terminal isn't working as planned:
All of the above symptoms point to poor timing. A system comprised of hundreds of satellite components is a lot like an orchestra. If each unique part is not playing the right note in the correct rhythm, the music is discordant. In a satellite system, when all the components responsible for handling RF signal are not aligned, the system will experience poor BER, lower throughput, lower availability or longer outages.
Oscillator as Coordinating Conductor
A quality, ultra low phase noise reference oscillator will tune all the components to the same frequency. This will minimize bit error rates and Service Level Agreement concerns. Assuming that it is a quality, highly accurate component, a reference oscillator:
1. efficiently solves the biggest issues in one move
2. saves time with a short installation
3. improves throughput of the entire system
4. reduces the remaining troubleshooting steps
