A communications satellite (sometimes abbreviated to comsat) is an artificial satellite stationed in space
for the purposes of telecommunications. For fixed (point-to-point) services, communications satellites
provide a microwave radio relay technology complementary to that of fiber optic submarine communication
cables. They are also used for mobile applications such as communications to ships,vehicles,planes
and hand-held terminals, and for TV and radio broadcasting, for which application of other technologies ,
such as cable, is impractical or impossible.

Suitable connectors for this type of Application:
A. N connectors can also be used in satellite TV where high precision is really required.
B. RG6/u - low loss at high frequency for cable television, satellite television and cable modems.
C. The F connector is a type of coaxial RF connector commonly used for "over the air" terrestrial television,
cable television and universally for satellite television and cable modems, usually with RG-6/U cable or,
in older installations, with RG-59/U cable. It was invented by Eric E. Winston in the early 1950s while
working for Jerrold Electronics on their development of cable television.
