Hi all,
Hope this is the correct place (apologies otherwise - please move).
I am after general help, to see if what I am after is possible.
I have been asked to help design a system as I have a network engineering background, however satellite systems beyond a standard sky dish set-up are out of my current knowledge zone.
Currently the house in question has a sky box with the standard shotgun cable running through the loft and then down into the living room. As part of the house renovation more shotgun has been put into various rooms (currently 6) these cables all go back to the loft space.
What's been requested, if possible is a second dish on the house, probably a 36V H-H system (although not 100% on this yet). There would be a new receiver for this dish.
The ideal plan would be to have it so that the sky box and other receiver can be moved around the house and connected into any of the rooms and used simultaneously.
I'm not sure if this is possible, is there a multi-switch setup that can do this?
From my understanding, if a 36V system is used the positioner can be placed in the loft so there is only a single run of cable from that to the motorised dish as the positioner is controlled by the receiver via the co-ax.
Hope this is clear enough as I don't know all the technical terms yet, if you need me to clarify anything I'll do my best.
Thanks,
Anak
