The multi-switches of the GigaSwitch 9/8 series serve to provide satellite IF signals as well as terrestrial signals for up to 16 parties.

Distribution examples include the following:

>the full bandwidths of two satellites (analogue and digital programmes of the Astra 19,2° and Eutelsat 13° East satellites)

or

>eight freely selectable polarisation planes.

In the satellite band, the branch switches have a slope-rectified amplification/gain, so that distances of up to 100 metres can be bridged without any need for additional equipment.

The slope-rectified gain system for terrestrial signals is secure for the future, and can distri- bute DVB-T signals effectively even in areas receiving a weak signal.

Use the mains power adapter supplied to make the connection to mains power. If the GigaSwitch 9/8 G is used without a cascade matrix, it is recommended that the energy- savings switch be set to on.

Please note:

When using a Cascade GigaSwitch 9/8 K, the energy-savings option must be switched off!
