Splitters, Taps, Diplexers, Signal Amplifier, DiSEqC Switches
All of the above are used to connect more than one
dish, more than one LNB, more than one receiver and to connect different input
signals to enhance your free to air experience.
There are so many different configurations it
almost impossible to list all of them here.
I have attached a file that shows some of the common combinations that
can be accomplished. One thing to
consider is; “as you use more and more cable the quality of the signal will
degrade. This is controlled by the
lengths more so than the numbers.
Always keep your cable runs as short as possible but
if this is un avoidable then use signal amplifiers to boost the strength of the
income signal.
Always plan out your system, draw out the components
and all of the various connections you will be making. Not only does this help to plan the lay-out
but it will give you a diagram to follow once you start your lay-out.
