RF-Design Supplies RF-over-Fiber Systems for Nilesat's Satellite Ground Station

Lorsch, Germany,  February 24, 2020--RF-Design, a leading manufacturer of RF distribution and RF-over-Fiber solutions for the global satellite communications industry, together with their local partner Wahsh Engineering and the German system integrator HILTRON has supplied their FiberLinkplus RF-over-Fiber system for a new TVRO downlink operation at the satellite ground station facilities of Nilesat in Giza/EGYPT.

Nilesat´s new downlink operates 9 TVRO Ku-Band antennas with all their signals being transmitted to their Master Control Room (MCR) by RF-Design´s FiberLinkplus RF-over-Fiber system in a N+1 redundant configuration.

Nilesat´s high requirements for a stable and secure optical transmission for this TVRO application have been fully met with RF-Design´s RF-over-Fiber system. The supplied RF-over-Fiber solution for Nilesat is offering high resilience by N+1 redundant optical transmission along with hot-swappable optical TX and RX modules and 1:1 redundant dual power supplies. Best quality RF performance and features such as variable gain-control, RF-power monitoring and switchable LNB-supply along with local and remote configuration capabilities give Nilesat the opportunity to transmit their signals with accurate RF power and highest stability.

Professional teamwork of all involved companies combined with the custom designed turnkey system design, material provision and system integration especially designed to meet Nilesat´s requirements have been the deciding factors in choosing to cooperate with RF-Design, Wahsh Engineering and HILTRON, said Mr. Hamdy Mounir, CTO of Nilesat.

“We at RF-Design together with our partners Wahsh Engineering and HILTRON are very grateful that Nilesat and their CTO, Mr. Hamdy Mounir and his team have showed their trust in us” said Mr. Ralf Mayr Managing Director and Mr. Oliver Vogel Director Sales and Marketing at RF-Design.

“Such an achievement not only demonstrates that the products and services provided by RF-Design, Wahsh Engineering and HILTRON are perfectly suiting the requirements of the global satellite ground station market but also shows that a cooperation based on teamwork and constant focus on customer requirements results in a win-win for all involved parties”.
