This interface can connect to a quad LNB, or a quatro LNB or 4 outputs from a multiswitch. It will provide two Sky Q™ outputs There is another dSCR Quad LNB on the market, which has one SCR output for connecting a Sky Q box onto a single feed mode and 3 traditional universal LNB outputs for connecting normal Sky or Freesat boxes. Many households may have Sky Q in the main living room and other Freesat HD satellite receivers or TVs with freesat built in for other rooms in the house. The LNB oscillates down to the Intermediate frequency band which begins at 950Mhz and means that a terrestrial aerial signal can be combined onto the same cable making it the LNB of choice for diplexed TV/ Sat systems that are not using a multi-switch amplifier. dSCRtechnology is what is used with Sky Q compatible communal systems.

If you need to split the the twin widenand LNB to 2 x feesat 4K recordable boxes, us a wideband splitter Important to note that a Quadplexed wall plate is just a triplexed wall plate with an extra straight through connection with no filtering on the ‘Sat 2’ side.There are hybrid models of the LNB with multiple connections, such as the SKY Q Hybrid LNB EL027 Quad and EL028 6 Way Hybrid for running Sky Q and legacy systems such as FreeSat LNB and SKY HD LNB.

Although this type of LNB can be used for numerous satellite TV systems abroad, the only reason you would typically install this LNB type in the UK is for Sky Q, so this section has been written with this in mind.

Sky LNBs

available to continue working with Sky HD, freesat or standard receivers. Alternatively, connect it to your existing Using a quatro LNB and a multiswitch it is possible to have many more outputs. Even 32 outputs or larger. a single LNB. A twin LNB could be used for two single tuner satellite receivers or a twin tuner satellite receiver twin - two outputs, quad - 4 outputs and Octo - 8 outputs. All outputs are the same and are equivalent to One of the biggest advantages of Sky Q is that multiple boxes can be installed around the home for additional TV points in bedrooms, kitchens etc with no extra cabling required. Again, I am not sure if Freesat are working towards this and I have sent them this question, I will update this section when I have an answer.

Also suitable for use with Triax Sky Q™ multiswitches. Use a twin cable. No need to use a quatro LNB. You may find that you get the VIP treatment by Sky in an effort to keep you from leaving them. You may receive an offer for a reduced price subscription or a subscription free period. You may want to take them upon the offer and delay Freesat until a later date. All that being said, if you post your comments/ questions in the blog comments section below and are patient for a response. I will help where I can, by posting your comments here you will:If you need for outputs than the Sky Hybrid offers then you will need to add a Multiswitch. What LNB Do I Need for Sky HD? You may have come across the term “high gain” LNB. To understand this, it’s best to think of the LNB as the first stage of amplification. As satellite signals are beamed down to earth is very low strength one of the main roles of the LNB is amplify the signal. Most LNB’s are around 50dB gain but some models, High Gain LNB’s may be around 60dB gain or more. Multi-function intelligent switching design - This Hybrid LNB has 2 x wideband ports and 2 x legacy ports will allow you to keep your existing Sky HD or FreeSat Boxes working from one satellite dish as well as the new popular Sky Q 1TB/2TB box which is powered from the 2 x Wideband LNB ports.
