Based on different functions and configurations, network switch ports have two main categories: uplink port and normal port (downlink port). The uplink port on switch is usually a higher-speed port used to connect a device to other higher-speed ones in the topology or smaller local network to a larger network .
Read moreWhy is uplink higher than downlink?
In satellite communication, the uplink frequency is higher than the downlink frequency because the attenuation level increase with an increase in frequency . The power at the ground station (Base Station) is more than compared to the power available at the satellite.
Read moreWhat is the function of the uplink?
Pertaining to radiocommunication service, an uplink (UL or U/L) is the portion of a feeder link used for the transmission of signals from an earth station to a space radio station, space radio system or high altitude platform station .
Read moreWhat is difference between uplink and downlink?
In satellite telecommunication, a downlink is the link from a satellite down to one or more ground stations or receivers, and an uplink is the link from a ground station up to a satellite .

What is uplink and downlink in mobile communications? An uplink is a signal leaving your mobile phone and transmitting it to a cell tower. A downlink is a signal transmitting to your mobile phone from the cell tower .
Read moreWhat is meant by uplink and downlink frequency?
Uplink frequency is the frequency at which, the first earth station is communicating with satellite . The satellite transponder converts this signal into another frequency and sends it down to the second earth station. This frequency is called as Downlink frequency.
Read moreWhat is the downlink frequency?
The communication between satellite towards earth station receiver is known as downlink frequency. Downlink frequency of satellite is the frequency at which the satellite is transmitting the signal and earth station receiving it. Downlink frequency range = 3.7 GHz to 4.2 GHz .
