  • Dish wiring & SWM-8

    I have a slime line dish with a built in 4 port multiplexer. How do I connect this to the SWM-8. Do I have to take out the multiplexer? If so, what part do I need to buy to replace it as it holds the LNBS to the arm?

    Thanks

    Please see our wiring diagrams here:

    There are also great DIRECTV SWM wiring diagrams here:

    You will leave your built-in multiswitch in the dish and connect the four lines out from the dish into the SWM.

      Thanks for your response. To clairify, I connect the SWM to the four outports on the integrated multi switch? Currently, I only have two cables running from the dish. I guess this means I need to run 2 more?

        You need all four lines directly from the dish to go into the multiswitch.
        Been here a long time . . .
