C-Band
Satellites transmit information with radio frequency (RF) bands. The frequency bands most used for satellite communications are C & KU band. C band being a lower frequency, it is less susceptible to weather interference and
Modern satellites are designed to operate as hybrid spacecraft that operate with C or KU frequencies.
Peak Uplink C-Band
Peak Uplink has 10 fully redundant hybrid digital C band trucks. Hybrid refers to the option that these trucks can transmit C Band or KU band.
Trucks 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11 and 12 are capable of transmitting multiple digital C band carriers, as well as digital KU. All our trucks are built fully redundant with 2 of every major component to allow us to overcome any obstacle that may present itself.

The most popular type of satellite transmission for uplinking and downlinking. Ku-band operates on a higher frequency than C-band transmissions and requires smaller antennas.

High Definition
The Television industry is providing programming in High Definition Television (HDTV). HDTV is considered a superior TV product for two reasons. First, it increases the number of scan lines on the screen for better detail and clarity. And second, it offers a wider picture that more resembles a movie theater screen in which many feature films were intended to be shown.
Applying these two lines of thought to live sporting events in HDTV allows the viewer at home a “front row seat” experience to sporting events in their own living room.
