Modern multiswitch installations – Signal MRP

Signal MRP multiswitches with passive DVB-T/DAB/FM path have been designed for small/medium size SAT installations built in star topology. One device or a group of such multiswitches feeds the subscriber outlets from individual outputs of the multiswitch(es). This topology is typical for applications in single-family homes and in buildings inhabited by several or so families.

Designing FM/TV and SAT TV distribution systems in multi-dwelling units

The article introduces concepts of implementing distribution systems of terrestrial and satellite radio and TV signals in multifamily buildings. Any subscriber is able to receive terrestrial FM/DAB/TV signals broadcast in the area, and satellite radio/TV signals from two satellite positions. All the signals come from one master antenna set...

Tap multiswitch system in apartment building (for one satellite)

Here's an example of installation diagram in apartment building. The system provides each outlet with all available terrestrial broadcasts and satellite channels from one satellite (chosen at the stage of initial planning, usually by the administrator of the building). The system is based on TERRA multiswitches of MSV series and satellite taps with different tap attenuation. The biggest advantage of such a system is its flexibility. Thanks to the wide range of TERRA multiswitches, the designer has virtually limitless possibilities of creating the network and choosing the right equipment. The system is expandable and allows to implement new functions in the future.

Tap multiswitch system in apartment building (for two satellites)

Here's an example of installation diagram in large apartment building. The system provides each outlet with all available terrestrial broadcasts and satellite channels from two satellites (e.g. Astra 19.2E and HotBird 13E). The system is based on TERRA multiswitches of MSV series and satellite taps with different tap attenuation. The biggest advantage of such a system is flexibility. Thanks to the wide range of TERRA multiswitches, the designer has virtually limitless possibilities of creating the network and choosing the right equipment. The system is expandable and allows to implement new functions in the future.

Pass-through multiswitch system in apartment building
(for one satellite)

Here's an example of installation diagram in apartment building. The system provides each outlet with all available terrestrial broadcasts and satellite channels from one satellite (chosen at the stage of initial planning, usually by the administrator of the building). The system is based on radial TERRA multiswitches of MSR series. Thanks to the wide range of TERRA multiswitches, the designer has virtually limitless possibilities of creating the network and choosing the right equipment. The systems are expandable and allow to implement new functions in the future, e.g. CCTV monitoring.
