DESCRIPTION of an Irish & UK Channels Distribution Kit (Large Scale)

This purpose of this kit is to allow a hotel or B&B to receive the new Irish digital Saorview & free UK TV channels independently available across all TVs. It consists of 2 main component parts. Note: Set top boxes not included (Purchase separately)

Part 1: Multiswitch TV Distribution Signal Distribution

  • High Gain UHF Aerial, Bracket, pole and installation kit (1)
  • 80cm Satellite dish & wall bracket
  • Quatro LNB
  • Satellite & Terrestrial Multiswitch (8, 16 or 32 outputs)
  • Installation kit:
    • 100m of CT100 (Pure Copper) Satellite Cable
    • F Connectors (Qty: 20)
    • F Joiners (Qty: 8)

Part 2: Equipment Per TV / Room (Not included, Order Separately)

  • Scart lead 1.5m or 1.5 HDMI (1-32)
  • TV Cable - 1.5m Coax Plug to Coax Plug
  • TV Cable - 1.5m F Connector to F Connector

Extra Equipment

  • Normally customers will need to upgrade the TV wall plate next to each TV to split a single cable into 2 feeds:
    • one for Satellite (UK)
    • and one for Terrestrial (Irish channels)
  • These face plates can be selected from the 'Associated Products' to the right of this kit
  • This kit comes with twist on F connectors but for a more professional job it is better to use compression F connectors and a compression tool. See the Associated products

      • 32 output - caters for up to 32 rooms

  • This system can be used in conjunction with a range of receivers:
    • Sky+ boxes, free to air satellite receivers or Saorview ready TVs
