Satellite reception antenna 45 STV Gen2 NZ (replaces E93004-2)

The Raymarine 45 STV Gen2 NZ antenna is a satellite reception system designed to provide continuous access to television channels at sea and in harbor. It automatically identifies, acquires, and maintains tracking of compatible DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting) signals transmitted by satellites, ensuring stable reception.

The primary function of the 45 STV Gen2 NZ satellite antenna is to provide continuous access to television channels. It is designed to detect, capture, and automatically maintain reception of digital video broadcast (DVB) satellite signals, whether you are sailing or docked.

The "NZ" designation indicates that this variant of the 45 STV Gen2 antenna is specifically configured for receiving linearly polarized signals. This type of polarization is commonly used in geographical regions such as Europe, Australia, New Zealand, China, and the Middle East, ensuring compatibility with the broadcast standards of these areas.

Yes, the Raymarine 45 STV Gen2 NZ antenna (reference E70463) replaces the previous model E93004-2.

The STV Gen2 satellite TV system is available in several models, including the 37STV Gen2, the 45STV Gen2, and the 60STV Gen2. The specific product here is the 45STV Gen2 NZ.

Yes, the 45 STV Gen2 NZ antenna is designed to identify, acquire, and automatically maintain tracking of DVB signals from satellites, ensuring stable reception even when the boat is in motion.

Before installing or using the product, it is essential to open the antenna unit’s housing and remove the foam transport blocks located at the base of the unit. It is also critical to lift the unit by its base, not by the cover, to avoid any damage, and to take care not to damage the connectors beneath the base.

When installing this product, the power supply must be properly protected using a fuse or an appropriately rated circuit breaker.

No, it is strongly discouraged to paint or apply any other finish on the antenna unit. This could degrade its performance beyond acceptable limits.

For optimal EMC performance, it is recommended to keep the antenna and its cables at least:

At least 1 metre (3 feet) away from any equipment transmitting radio signals (e.g., VHF radios, cables, and antennas).
At least 2 metres (7 feet) away from SSB (Single Sideband) radios.
More than 2 metres (7 feet) away from a radar beam path.
It is also recommended to power the product from a battery separate from the engine starter battery.

It is recommended to use cables specified by Raymarine. If cables not supplied by Raymarine are used to connect the equipment, a ferrite choke must always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit. Cables must not be cut or extended unless explicitly detailed in the installation manual.

Before modifying the mounting surface, ensure the printed template matches the measurements indicated in the template document. To do this, Adobe Acrobat Reader must be configured correctly so that installation templates print at actual size. Check the page size in the print properties and ensure the scale option is disabled or set to "actual size".

Yes, installing the STV Gen2 system offers options for dual or quadruple RF configurations, as well as multiswitch connections, allowing the system to adapt to different reception needs.

Yes, Raymarine cables can be fitted with EMI ferrite beads, which are important for correct EMC performance. If a ferrite bead must be removed, it must be replaced in its original position before using the product. For non-Raymarine cables, an EMI ferrite bead must always be attached near the Raymarine unit.

The 45 STV Gen2 NZ antenna is configured to receive linearly polarized signals, making it compatible with broadcast standards in regions such as Europe, Australia, New Zealand, China, and the Middle East.

For full functionality, ensure your satellite receivers (IRD) are capable of operating and receiving DVB signals at your new location. You must also subscribe to the relevant services from the appropriate service providers.

If you change your navigation area, you may need to adjust your STV system. This includes repositioning the antenna’s LNB head according to the new zone and updating regional settings using the control unit (ACU) or a PC running the user interface software.

Yes, to access all features of your STV system, you must subscribe to the relevant satellite TV services from the appropriate service providers.

No, the "NZ" variant of the 45 STV Gen2 antenna is specifically configured to receive linearly polarized signals. Other STV Gen2 system variants are available for regions using circular polarization (such as North America), but this specific model does not.
