An LNB bracket is used on a satellite dish to hold the low-noise band (LNB) element in place where it can receive optimal signal from an orbiting satellite. Each satellite system comes with an LNB bracket that is used with the dish provided. This article will discuss the setup of a standard LNB bracket with a satellite dish and what the most important areas are to consider if you are modifying an existing bracket or building your own. The Low Noise Band (LNB) mounting bracket is initially attached to the center rear of the satellite dish using four bolts with lock washers and nuts on a standard 18-inch dish. Larger satellite dishes that are 36 inches and up alternately have a tripod LNB mounting system with the three arms being connected to the two sides and bottom of the dish, coming to a point in front of the dish where the LNB will be placed.
