Corner Brackets, secure the Multiswitch using the appropriate fixing screws 

and wall plugs to suit the relevant wall surface or cabinet.

CONNECTING THE SAT & TERR INPUT CABLES

Use a suitably sized Satellite Dish to provide adequate signal levels from the 

satellite being received. Ensure that the Satellite Drop Cables are connected 

correctly  in  the  corresponding  order  with  respect  to  the  LNB  and  the 

Multiswitch SAT inputs (Quattro LNB only). Ensure that the F Connectors are 

properly sealed against water ingress. 

If a Composite Cable (multi core coaxial cable) has been used, ensure that the 

outer jacket is not facing upwards and cannot collect rain water. Check the 

Terrestrial Drop Cable and ensure that this has also been sealed against water 

ingress. If a Triplexer has been used to combine FM and DAB aerials with the 

UHF Terrestrial Aerial, ensure that this is also water tight. Ensure that all drop 

cables have drip loops prior to their entering the building.

Connect the SAT and TERR drop cables to the corresponding Satellite & TERR 

Inputs of the Multiswitch.

CONNECTING THE SUBSCRIBER CABLES

Terminate the Subscriber Cables with good quality F Connectors and connect 

to the Subscriber Outputs. The F Connectors should be fitted to the coaxial 

cable  correctly,  ensuring  that  the  centre  core  protrudes  3mm  above  the  F 

Connector body. See figure 3 (on page 8). Ensure that you do not exceed the 

bending radius of the Coaxial Cable being used. 

The Subscriber Cables may be arranged either side of the Multiswitch before 

being  terminated  and  connected.  If  required,  the  Subscriber  Cables  may  be 

arranged  to  one  side  of  the  Multiswitch, with  the  cables  passing  under  the 

Multiswitch before being terminated and connected to the Subscriber Outputs 

on the opposite side. See figure 4 (on page 8). Always use CAI approved high 

quality coaxial cable.
