Mount Baker Cable, a Cable TV company in the state of Washington, has recently completed the upgrade of the microwave system transporting the cable TV signals from the Headend in Ferndale to Orcas Island (16 miles) and Lummi Island (7 miles), in Washington, USA.

The microwave system consists of a broadband outdoor transmitter operating in the 12.7 to 13.2 GHz band, feeding two paths simultaneously. At each of the receiver sites, the local receiver feeds the local cable network directly.

The microwave system allows Mount Baker Cable to continue to offer upgraded Cable TV service to the two Island communities.

Dan Adams, General Manager of the Cable system, mention “I am very pleased with the quality of the signal and the level of support from Cable AML during installation and turn-on of the system.”
