Intended Use

The UFO 87/CI s used for transmodulation and decoding of DVB signals. The latest triple-tuner technology makes it
possible to receive up to eight DVB-S(2)/ -T(2)/ -C transponders. These can be received from the four SAT-IP inputs with
DiSEqC functionality and the terrestrial/cable input in any combination. The UFO 87/CI delivers up to eight individually
configurable output channels conforming to DVB-C.
The highly efficient baseband signal processing offers channel filter, NIT, CAT and LCN functionality. In addition, there are
six CI slots and flexibly combinable, highly energy efficient decoding options available.
The configuration is carried out by means of the USW 800 management software over an IP interface. An optional
cascading of two units (UFO 87 or/and UFO 87/CI) is possible via a USB connection.
The unit is intended exclusively for the application in the UFG 810 as well as in satellite, cable or antenna reception
systems. Any other use of failure to comply with these instructions will result in voiding of the guarantee or warranty.
