4 Room Distribution Kit

USER GUIDE

Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your aerial  signal distribution kit. The kit is designed to receive and distribute 
digital terrestrial signals around your home  to up to 4 TVs without loss of signal strength.  The 4 way signal booster  
is 4G ready - which means it removes interference and channel loss from your TV caused by 4G mobile phone 
signals. Please Note: To receive output from the satellite RF2 output you will need a TV with an analogue tuner.

Planning your distribution system - Choosing a location for the amplifier
The 4-way amplifier may be fitted in any convenient position the most popular being either the loft or 
the sitting room near the main TV.  In choosing a location, consider the following:
a) The amplifier needs to be plugged into the mains, so it must be near a socket.
b) You will need to run cables from the amplifier to each outlet point.
c) You must be able to get the cable from the aerial to the input of the amplifier (via the VCR or DVD 
recorder if you wish to distribute VCR/DVD signals).

Freeview™ Reception
Please note that the aerial will receive digital TV signals and the amplifier supplied will distribute them 
but each TV will require a suitable set top box to view Freeview™ channels (unless the TV has a built-in 
Freeview™ digital tuner).

Fixing - The amplifier is best fixed to a wall or other suitable hard surface, using suitable screws and masonry 
plugs (not supplied). The amplifier should not be left supported by its own wiring, nor should it be left resting 
on a carpet or other insulating and/or inflammable surfaces and must be placed where it will not be 

smothered by curtains or other fabrics, etc, or thermal insulation materials in a loft. 

A ventilation gap of at 

least 25mm should be left around the front and sides of the unit.
