DVB-S/S2 PCIe card from DVBSKy

Features

  • Advanced demodulator from Montage
  • PCIe x1
  • Low power
  • Optional Power by PCI Express 6-Position Power Connector
  • DiSEqC and Remote control

Components Used

  • RF: Montage M88TS2020
  • Demodulator: 2nd generation Montage M88DS3103
  • PCIe Bridge: Conexant CX23885 (older cards), SMI PCIe chip (smipcie.ko) (card revision 3.0+)

In contrast to the DVBSKY_S952_v3, V3 revisions of this card do not use the M88RS6000 receiver.
