Overview

The VIZOBOX BKD131-8 is a cascadable 13-in-8 SAT-IF multiswitch with 12 SAT inputs and one terrestrial input, designed for Quattro LNBs with passive or active terrestrial feed. Built on the latest RF-chipset and stripline technology, it combines an integrated amplifier for low insertion loss with 30 dB isolation between polarisations. Standard DiSEqC 1.0 control, 0/22 kHz band switching and 12–14.5 V / 16–19 V polarisation control ensure compatibility with common receivers, while the integrated power supply keeps installation compact.
