Our Company's Satellite Systems And Multiswitches Are The Ideal Choice For Hotels, Settlements, Stadiums, Hospitals etc.

A satellite antenna enables you to receive a nearly unlimited variety of channels. Due to multifeed technology, signals can be received from several satellites and used by an almost unlimited number of subscribers simultaneously – without any additional equipment. Compared to other transmission paths, this makes satellite reception interesting for both individual and shared systems. Our advanced distribution technology and sophisticated planning tool enable a single satellite antenna to supply several flats or even entire blocks of houses with the channel diversity of several satellites.

Well-designed system components, such as our LNBs, ensure a crystal-clear picture – both in HD and 4k. LNB is short for “Low Noise Block” and means as much as “low-noise signal converter” or “low-noise feed system”. Its main task is collecting the signals received by the antenna. It is one of the most important components of a satellite reception system.No matter whether installing a new or retrofitting an existing system, whether single or shared systems

Signal distribution via multi-switches and network amplifiers makes satellite reception not only suitable for new buildings. Retrofitting an existing system can also be carried out easily and flexibly. Combinations with other signals such as DVB-T/-T2 or cable TV are also possible.

No Matter Whether Installing A New Or Retrofitting An Existing System, Whether Single Or Shared Systems

Thanks to today’s distribution technology, community systems and even entire blocks of flats can be supplied with the programme variety of several satellites via a single satellite antenna. Only a few of our system components are required to expand a new or existing satellite system flexibly and easily to include additional connections.

In single-cable or Unicable technology, multiple receivers are connected to a single cable. In contrast to common single-cable solutions with a limited choice of channels, our Unicable solution provides you with the full programme variety in best HD and 4k quality. Special Unicable-compatible multi-switches or LNBs (“Low Noise Blocks”) serve as distribution units.

Background information: Instead of transmitting a complete frequency band, a specific wavelength in the range from 950 MHz to 2150 MHz is available to each receiver. The receiver uses special signals to inform the multi-switch or LNB of the corresponding frequency of the desired TV programme. In principle, all receivers that comply with the European standard EN 50494 can be used in a single-cable system.

Our Company's Multiswitches Are Suitable For:

For distribution of 4,8,12,16 satellite frequences planes and terrestrial signals and Only one drop cable is required for each receiver (two drop cables for twin receivers)
Independent horizontal/vertical, low/high selection from each receiver
Switching carried out using coaxial cable with14/18V and 0/22 kHz signal frequency
With built-in amplifier for low connection losses in the satellite and terrestrial range
Built-in pre-emphasis for equalisation of cable attenuation
Reception of terrestrial range possible even when satellite receiver is switched off
High decoupling between outputs
LNB remote feeding via horizontal low input. All other inputs are voltage-free (enabling operation with UAS 585).
Low power consumption due to high-efficiency, short-circuit proof switched-mode power supply unit and power-saving concept (each individual multi-switch branch is powered by the connected receiver and is switched off whenever the receiver is switched off)
For indoor installation
