10 Technical Terms

Antenna cable:
Connecting cable between the modulator of the satellite
receiver and the antenna input of the television set. Used as
an alternative where no SCART socket is availabe
External installation:
Term used to describe the whole system mounted externally,
consisting of the parabolic or offset dish as well as one or
more LNCs, to provide reception from one or more satellites
AV: see SCART
Data compression/MPEG1/MPEG2:
The current television standard (625 lines and 50 Hz picture
repeat frequency) provides a digital data volume of 216
MBit/s.
This would require bandwidths simply not available either ter-
restrially or via satellite. The data volume is thus reduced by
means of a data reduction system. For Europe, the internatio-
nally determined standard for data compression is MPEG-2.
MPEG-2 is an expanded version of MPEG-1
