Channel Plus MULTI-SWITCH H424 - Manual

The H424 satellite multi-switch
connects up to four
satellite receivers to a dual LNB dish. The
multi-switch locks one LNB to receive
right hand polarized signals and
the other LNB to receive
left hand polarized
signals. The individual
satellite receivers may
select any satellite
channel. The multi-
switch will automatically
connect the receivers to
the correct LNB.

Adding a second multi-switch expands the system to six receivers. Adding
a third multi-switch allows the use of up to eight satellite receivers. Do not
cascade multi-switches more than 2 ‘layers’ deep.

The highest performance method
of distributing satellite and
antenna (or CATV) signals is to
keep them separate. Run a second
coax cable to each room that will
have a satellite receiver.

Diplexers allow you to combine satellite
and antenna (or CATV) signals on a
single coax. Combining these signals
sometimes creates new problems: The
diplexer will reduce the signal strengths,
increasing the chance of noisy pictures.
Coupling the two also invites
interference. We recommend only
using diplexers when you cannot run a
second coax.
