How many boxes can one run off a single satellite dish?
First of all the answer is infinate, Lnb’s come with various output´s i.e they range from one port, Whereas you can run one box, Then two outputs for two digiboxes and four outputs for four digiboxes. The maximum being eight outputs, Thus enabling you to run 8 digiboxes from the one satellite dish. If however you are in a community and want 64 apartments installed with a separate digibox in each apartment, Enabling each resident to have a digibox of there own and a subscription of there own it is still possible with one dish, This situation would therfore require some switching and Amplifying equipment at the headend (telecoms closet). Consisting of multi switches which come in output of 4 and multiples thereof.
Lnb’s come with various output’s i.e. they range from one port, so you can run one box, Then two outputs for two digiboxes and four outputs for four digiboxes. If however you are in a community and want 36 apartments connected with a digibox in each apartment, enabling each resident to have a digibox of their own and a subscription of their own it is still possible with one dish. This would therefore require some Amplifying and switching equipment at the headend (Telecommunications Room). Including multi switches.
