Applications
This module type was used in AUSSAT satellite ground stations for controlling and monitoring satellite communications equipment. The station status and control functionality manages uplink/downlink operations, system diagnostics, and remote/local command switching in satellite earth station configurations. Typical installation in Hughes satellite ground equipment divisions for Australian domestic satellite systems.
This Hughes 3878529-100 Station Status and Control Module is being sold AS-IS for parts or repair. It has not been tested or confirmed functional, and no warranty of operation is expressed or implied. The chassis is a 19" rackmount unit with the front-panel display and control buttons intact. Internally, the unit contains multiple PCBs including the 112K Processor board (Assy 3878693) and the Local Control Unit (Assy 3878583 Rev A), along with a third board from SPD Industrial Electronic Engineers (P/N 04202-01, Mfg. date 8345). The chassis shows typical age-related wear consistent with prior installation. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
