2 Technical Specifications
The products are standalone multiswitches for distribution of terrestrial and satellite signals from
4 satellite positions (16 polarities) to 4 (MS17/4PIU-6), 6 (MS17/6PIU-6), 8 (MS17/8PIU-6), 12
(MS17/12PIU-6), 16 (MS17/16PIU-6), 20 (MS17/20PIU-6) or 26 (MS17/26PIU-6) users.
Multiswitches are controlled by DiSEqC 2.0 commands from a satellite receiver. It is enabled to
switch on active or passive mode of terrestrial band. Multiswitches are compatible with quad
LNB, it is possible to switch on or off signal 22 kHz at satellite inputs of hight band. Terrestrial
input can supply terrestrial antenna preamplifier with DC voltage, the supply is electronically
protected against short-circuit. Multiswitches are powered from internal power supply P3U27.
