The Norsat LNB Redundant Switch System automatically detects LNB faults and switches to a standby LNB, keeping your downlink available. It's offered in 1:1 and 1:2 configurations for C-, X-, Ku- and Ka-band, with F-type or Type-N outputs. Options include a 10 MHz reference or 10 MHz injection for external-reference LNBs, a boom mount and a redundant power supply connector. It supports N-connector LNBs up to quad-band (non-simultaneous).
Key features
- 1:1 or 1:2 LNB redundancy with automatic switching (420–550 ms)
- C-, X-, Ku- and Ka-band versions (WR-229, WR-112, WR-75, WR-42)
- Low loss: 0.5 dB waveguide to LNB, 2.8 dB LNB to cable
- Options: 10 MHz reference, 10 MHz injection (external-reference LNBs), boom mount, redundant power connector
- F-type or Type-N output; IP66; 100–240 VAC
- Optional 1U indoor unit for Ethernet M&C; drawings kits available

Frequently asked questions
Which LNBs does it support?
N-connector LNBs up to quad-band (non-simultaneous). LNBs are sold separately, and we can quote the switch with matching Norsat LNBs.
Can I monitor and control it from indoors?
Yes, with the optional Norsat 1U 19-inch indoor unit. It provides Ethernet M&C, an LCD and buttons, an audible fault alarm and a manual override.
Designing a redundant earth station?
Digisat engineers design, install and commission 1:1 and 1:2 redundant transmit and receive chains for teleports, gateways and government sites, including switch integration, M&C and failover testing. Talk to an engineer.
