![]() ![]() Yes all okay here canofan,if you need some more info about katkrein antenna please drop a mail,otherwise,we going offtopic here.) This shows the advantage of using such equipment for reliability, stability and durability in the long run, especially when it is undesirable to access LNBs. If all LNBs are quattro (reknown to be virtually fail proof) no strain at all is imposed on the receiver or the cascaded switches, as they do not have to carry current but only voltage signal. This imposes less strain on the switches and receiver. Multiswitches use the 14v/18v/22khz from e.g receiver A, not to power the LNB, but as a signal for the multiswitch to select the correct polarity for receiver A. Passive DISEqC 1.0 and 1.1 switches when used for switching LNBs do carry power from the 14v/18v/22khz from the receiver to the LNBs. ![]() This applies whether switching or "quattro lnbs with multiswitch" are used, and of course, using the outputs from both types simultaneously is possible. They exist in the present day as:Ģ input when cascaded with DISEqC 1.0 switches max 8 LNBs,Ĥ input when cascaded with DISEqC 1.0 switches max 16 LNBs,Ĩ input when cascaded with DISEqC 1.0 switchesmax 32 LNBs andġ0 input when cascaded with DISEqC 1.0 switches max 40 LNBs. PS a multiswitch could be used also with single Band non switching LNBs like Norsat CAL AMP and SMWĢ- The DISEqC 1.1 supports more than 4 LNBs, but its main advantage is its possibility to cascade with 1.0 DISEqC switches of the two types described above. This exists in a passive weatherproof version (gets its power from the receiver), andĪn active version multiswitch (gets its power from a mains outlet and usually not weatherproof) used for quattro LNBs, which are then powered directly from the multiswitch, and where no switching within the LNB is required, this last version allows the use of multiple receiver tuning each to a different satellite/transponder. There are 2 types of those:ġ- The DISEqC 1.0 supports a maximum of 4 LNBs. ![]() Once you decide to go the multi LNB way, you are bound to use DISEqC switches. This description applies to a single user point of view because DISEqC 1.1 applies only to a single receiver. I mean this thread as an introduction for constructive discussions on the matter of DISEqC switching and as a platform that tries to solve problems arising from such applications. ![]()
