Overview

The VIZOBOX BMS51-6-8 is a cascadable SAT-IF multiswitch with 4 SAT inputs plus one terrestrial input, feeding 6 or 8 user outputs and suitable for Quad and Quattro LNBs. Built on the latest RF-chipset technology, it combines an integrated amplifier for low insertion loss with high isolation between polarisations and integrated pre-emphasis to compensate cable loss. An integrated power supply and an optional LNB standby power-saving mode round out the design.
