S.154, 155, 150 Series

DiSEqC 2.0 distribution system for indoor use that can work with two Quatro LNBs, or even with four Dual or Twin LNBs. This multi-switch allows connection of 8 different LNBs signals (polarities). Input level can be set by attenuators in range of 15dB. Using a built-in switch, it is also possible to send the command “22kHz” and DiSEqC 1.0 Write NO command “High Band” to selected SAT inputs for high band continuously; in this case it is possible to connect also Twin Universal or Quad LNBs to the inputs.

Integrated power supply is protected by a fuse and short-circuit protection. The LED on the power supply indicates the power supply activity. In case of a short-circuit on a SAT input, the LED goes off and the acoustic alarm is activated. After power supply disconnection from the network and removal of the short-circuit cause, the multi-switch power supply can be reconnected after a minute.

S.156-MP Series

Amplifier with 8 satellite inputs and one terrestrial input, designed as an input unit for cascade system.  It is  usually used at a cascade input. LNBs are connected to the inputs, and cascade multi-switches or taps to the outputs of the amplifier. It is possible to use 2 Quatro or 4 Dual or Twin LNBs, Quad LNB is not supported.  The amplifier outputs are galvanicly isolated from the power supply. Input level can be set by attenuators in a range of 15dB. For reference on the power supply see introduction to S.154, 155, 150 series.

S.156-MP-25

S.121-A

Cascadable passive tap designed for complex distribution systems.  Tap outputs are galvanicly isolated from trunklines and should be connected to the inputs of satellite multi-switch. The inputs of the first tap in a cascade should be connected to the outputs of the amplifier S.156-MP. The next tap can then be connected to the trunk outputs of the first one. In all it is possible to connect up to 10 units in series in a cascade provided they are connected to each other directly. If the units are connected to each other by means of a coaxial cable, it is only possible to connect a lower number of them. The number depends on the quality of the connectors and coaxial cable used, in particular on its reflection coefficient. Trunk outputs of the last unit in the cascade must be terminated by a 75 ohm resistor. The units are stackable onto the top of each other.

S.121-C

Cascadable active tap designed for complex distribution systems.  In-build amplifiers at tap outputs reduce tap loss to low value of 3 dB, while keeping trunk loss at minimum. This part is therefore recommended for installations where higher insertion losses might be an issue. However,  return path is not available. Internal satellite amplifiers are fed from its tap outputs, terrestrial amplifier is fed either from its own tap output or from adjacent Sat tap, depending on what DC voltage is higher. Attention must be given to the choice of connected multi-switch. The multi-switch must  always supply DC voltage either on its terr. Input or on its satellite inputs. For other installation notes please see section S.121-A.

 

S.122-A

A dual passive signal splitter with 4 SAT inputs and 1 terrestrial input, designed for connection with cascade taps S.121-A. This is de facto a system of 5 splitters in one unit. DC is passed through from outputs to inputs. Satellite inputs are used for connection if 1 Quatro or 2 Dual or Twin LNBs, terrestrial input for connection of TV or FM antenna or a preamplifier. The inputs of the unit can also be connected to the outputs of the amplifier S.156-MP. The units are stackable onto the top of each other. 

S.156-A

A DiSEqC 2.0 cascadable distribution system with 9 inputs (8 satellite inputs and 1 terrestrial input),  9 trunkline outputs and 4 receiver outputs. This type of multi-switch cannot be used as standalone since it does not pass DC voltage from satellite receivers to feed LNBs. On the other hand, DC pass exists for all trunk lines. Therefore it can be used only in conjunction with any 9 inputs standalone multi-switch (S.156 are inserted between standalone multi-switch and LNBs) or with an amplifier, which feeds LNBs (S.156 are connected to the outputs of an amplifier, trunk outputs of last unit must be terminated with 75 ohm resistors). While the first option offers easy way how to extend existing distribution system, second option provides generally higher signal levels on the outputs. In any case, it is recommended to connect up to 5 of these units in a cascade. When higher number of output ports is required, S.158-A multi-switches can be used by the same manner.

The product is offered in 5 different versions (S.156-A-5, S.156-A-10, S.156-A-15, S.156-A-20, S.156-A-25) with satellite band loss stepped from 5 dB to 25 dB to allow level balancing of the distribution system.

 

S.156-C

The terrestrial-active version of S.156-A provides the same terrestrial tap losses as for satellite taps, thus level balancing of distribution system is possible even for terrestrial path. The trade-off is that this solution does not provide return path. Internal terr. Amplifiers are fed via terrestrial trunk line (DC voltage 12 to 18 V, 15 to 20 mA per unit). Both installation option described above are reasonable, but make sure that connected standalone multi-switch or insertion amplifier provides sufficient DC feed on terrestrial path and that DC blocked termination is used on the other end of terrestrial trunk line. The product is also offered in 5 different versions (S.156-C-5, S156-C-10, S.156-C-15, S.156-C-20, S.156-C-25) with tap loss stepped from 5dB to 25dB.

 

S.158-A

A DiSEqC 2.0 cascadable distribution system with 9 inputs (8 satellite inputs & 1 terrestrial input), 9 trunk line outputs and 8 receiver outputs. Its use is fully described in section S.156-A. It is recommended to connect up to 5 of these units in a cascade. When available number of output ports is still not sufficient, it is possible to arrange more complex distribution system with several parallel cascades, tied by splitters (see S.122).

The product is offered in 5 differed in 5 different versions (S.158-A-5, S.158-a-10, S-158-A-15, S.158-A-20, S.158-A-25) with satellite band loss stepped from 5dB to 25dB to allow level balancing of the distributing system.

S.158-C

The terrestrial-active version of S.158-A provides the same terrestrial tap losses as for satellite taps, thus level balancing of distribution system is possible even for terrestrial path. For installation notes please see section S.158-A. In addition, terrestrial trunk line must be fed according to section S.156-C. 

The product is offered in 5 different versions (S.158-A-5, S.158-C-10, S-158-C-15, S-158-C-20, S.158-C-25) with tap loss stepped from 5dB to 25dB.

S.170-AP-8

17 inputs distribution system for up to 8 subscribers with passive terrestrial path.

 

S.170 Series

Multi--Switches with 17 inputs and up to 16 outputs. All types are DiSEqC 2.0 compatible devices for indoor use with an integrated power supply protected by a fuse and short-circuit protection with acoustic alarm. The LED  on the power supply indicates the power supply activity. In case of a short-circuit on a SAT input, the LED goes off and the acoustic alarm is activated. After removal of the short-circuit cause, the multi-switch power supply starts to operate immediately.

It allows to use of 4 Quatro or up to 8 Dual or Twin LNBs, while each of the subscribers can view all channels from the connected antennas. Input level can be set by attenuators in a range of 15dB.  Using a built-in switch, it is also possible to send the command “22 kHz” to up to 4 selected SAT inputs for high band continuously; in this case it is possible to send 22kHz tone to inputs for satellite systems C&D and therefore we don’t recommend to install and LNBs for SAT system C&D.

Stand-by mode : all multi-switches of S.170 series are equipped with an LNB power supply control system. The system reduces the power taken from the power supply by feeding only those LNBs whose signals are received by the connected subscribers at a time.  So the power consumption may be reduced to approx. 10VA (depending on the multi-switch type).
