  • Communal Dish - Can I increase # of feeds ?

    Hi. I live in a 250-unit complex that has one 5LNB dish with, I presume, multiple repeaters and multiswitches scattered throughout the building. Each unit is then fed with 3 lines, which allows me to run "one and a half" HD20s. I would like to run 3 HD20s, so need an additional 3 lines.
    Do the Multiswitches highlighted here have the capability to increase the number of lines using just the 3 cables I currently have, or do they need an actual connection directly to the Dish/LNB ?
    Any suggestions would be welcomed.

    You'd need four lines to use a 6x8 to increase the number of output lines. Unfortunately, three won't do the trick.

      Thanks Michael. Maybe I should move :-)

        No way to get a fourth? Maybe ask the management company if they can install a SWM?
