Appendix F: Redundant Backup with TP64
and TPT-2 Transfer Panels
F.1 Introduction
The Starlink SL9003Q and Digital Composite operate in a redundant hot or cold standby
configuration STL link using the TP64 Transfer Panel for transmitter switching. The Starlink
digital STL link may also be used in a redundant cold standby configuration with an existing
analog STL as a main or backup link when using a TPT-2 Transfer Panel.
F.2 TP64 System Features
• Redundant standby system accessory for Starlink 9000 QAM STL product lines.
• Manual transfer and Master/Slave selection by front panel push button.
• Front panel tri-color LED indicators display status of transmitter and receiver functions of
both Main and Standby radios.
• RF transfer relay provides high isolation, low insertion loss, and wide bandwidth, while
maintaining RF termination of the Standby radio transmitter.
