1 Preface
Congratulations on purchasing a Thales Affinity® Transmitter. We would like to welcome you to
the future of digital broadcasting and especially to the Thales Broadcast & Multimedia family.
Your Affinity® is a state-of-the-art low power digital L-Band transmitter. In addition to the
sophisticated on-board diagnostic test and measurement features, major assemblies within the
Affinity® are housed in a convenient modular plug-in package. This modular design philosophy
allows for “Hot Swap” module replacement without the necessity of shutting down the entire
transmitter for long periods. The “Hot Swap” plug-in module feature virtually eliminates costly
downtime.
Before receiving your Affinity®, the transmitter was subjected to a battery of quality assurance
inspections and functional tests to assure years of dependable and reliable on-air broadcasting.
In addition to ensuring that the appropriate support materials are supplied with the transmitter, it
should be comforting to know that Thales Customer Service representatives are only a click
