7 Downlink Option

SMS-758 Modem Protection Switch

C–2

MN/SMS758 Rev. 3

C.1 External Connections

The external connections for the 7 downlink option are slightly different than the standard
SMS-758.

Make sure the rear panel sticker supplied with this appendix has been properly installed.

The only connectors that are different are J7 through J16, the downlink inputs, and backup
demod outputs.

Table 2-1 lists the connectors for the 7 downlink option operation. All other connectors are
the same as described in Chapter 2 of the manual.

The use of each of these connectors is described in the following paragraphs.

This is the downlink switch input connector. When using the 7 downlink option, connect a

through 7.

When the 7 downlink option is not being used, this connector is a downlink input to backup
modem 1.

C.1.2 D/L Switch Output (J16)

This is the downlink switch output connector. As described above, when using the
7 downlink option, this connector enables downlink inputs 5 through 7, when connected to
J7.

When the 7 downlink option is not being used, this connector is the backup demod #2
output.
