Details

Radial multiswitches of the MR series are dedicated for small and medium (4-70 outlets) installations with distribution of intermediate frequency SAT and terrestrial TV signals. The multiswitches are designed for indoor operation. If there is a need to connect a larger number of multiswitches, it is necessary to use splitters and taps of SD-5XX series to divide the bus.
The multiswitches of MR series are are intended for systems wholly or partly based on star topology in which the cables to the terminal outlets go from one multiswitch or a group of multiswitches. This solution is optimal for single-family homes and many multifamily houses. In more complex systems the power supplies built into MR multiswitches can power other system components.
The MR-532 R70632 multiswitch has 5 inputs and 32 outputs - it is used for distributing SAT TV channels from one satellite and terrestrial DVB-T, DAB and FM broadcasts to 32 outlets. In the case of twin PVR receivers, one receiver has to be connected to two outlets.
The die-cast housing provides high screening efficiency by preventing the penetration of interfering signals to the unit.
The input SAT signals to multiswitch systems are provided by QUATRO LNBs.
Key features:
  • radial structure
  • cable loss correction
  • groups of outlets with different output levels
  • isolation between inputs better than 30 dB
  • possibility of using terrestrial TV preamplifier
  • built-in power supply
  • die-cast housing with high screening efficiency (class A)
A device from the well known Terra company that specializes in producing professional multiswitches for SMATV systems. Excellent workmanship, stable parameters and very low failure rate make TERRA multiswitches universally recommended.
An important advantage of MR-5XX multiswitches is diversification of signal levels at different groups of outputs. It allows to compensate the differences in attenuation of various lengths of cables that have to be used in the installation - we can get similar levels in all outlets. Additionally, the multiswitches compensate cable characteristics (provide higher levels for higher frequencies).
The device is powered with 230 VAC power network. All obligatory precautions for working with dangerous live voltages should be obeyed.

How to connect a Quatro LNB to Terra multiswitch

Descriptions of the satellite LNB outputs and the multiswitch inputs depend on their manufacturers. To avoid confusion, our movie illustrates the differences and clarifies the issue.

Designing SMATV systems with TERRA SatNet software

Designing antenna systems with the use of free software from TERRA - SatNet application. The program allows to prepare the project in graphical form, to determine signal levels in all outlets and verify if they are compliant with standards, and to decide whether to use equalization function of the amplifiers. The program enables the user to archive the designs.
