 C band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
C band ("compromise" band) is a portion of electromagnetic spectrum in the microwave range of frequencies ranging from 4 to 6 GHz.
C band direct-to-home reception contrasts with the newer and now more common direct broadcast satellite, which is a completely closed system used to deliver subscription programming to small satellite dishes connected to proprietary receiving equipment.
C band is primarily used for satellite communications, normally downlink 3.7 – 4.2 GHz, uplink 5.9 – 6.4 GHz, usually via twenty-four 36MHz-wide transponders on board a satellite.
