[QUOTE="A nonymous, post: 811262, member: 240839"] Use a Vision V5-524 Multiswitch (Pictured below) and a quattro lnb (pictured below). Using this switch will also give you the possibility to run UHF/DAB/FM & satellite to each output plate provided you input the terrestrial UHF/DAB/FM into the multiswitch. You will need a Triplexer (Vision V24-310) to combine the 3 feeds from each aerial (DAB , UHF, DAB ) as the switch only has 1 terrestrial input In each room you can use something like a Fracarro PAS0042D plate (pictured below), this fits a normal single pattress box. Make sure you use at least 40mm deep patresses as it can be a bit tight getting the cables in with anything more shallow. Forgot to mention you will also need a Vision 18v PSU unless you are going for a mains powered V5-524MP switch. If you use the remote powered switch you will not need to put the switch where there is 240v power as you can run the power up a length of Coax cable from the PSU to the switch. it also makes replacing the PSU a lot easier if it is in a place of easy access which is not always the case with a lot of these multiswitch setups. This switch will allow you some amplification of the sat signal if needed without the need for an amplifier. I've done a block of flats with 12 properties in with one of these switches on its own with no problems. Place the dish where ever it needs to go to get signal and then run the 4 (VL, VH, HL, HH) dish cables and the three terrestrial feeds (If needed) to the nearest point to the dish inside the house. You then need to run 2 cables from each room that needs to be served. The V5-524 has incremental output, i.e port 1-4 will be for example 10dB higher than port 20-24. This allows you to keep the signal loss from the dish feeds to a minimal as the switch does not have to be placed in a central location. The lower ports with the lower powered outputs feed the nearest rooms to the switch and the higher powered output ports feed the furthest rooms away from the switch. It makes life a lot easier as there is no need for any amps as the switch can be placed nearer to the dish :D Nano [/QUOTE]
