Thank you for purchasing the Home Signal Distribution Kit for Satellite TV Plus SIRIUS

The Home Signal Distribution Kit for Satellite TV Plus SIRIUS allows you to com- bine your Dish Network® or DIRECTV® signal with the SIRIUS® signal into one RG-6 cable, avoiding the necessity of installing a separate cable from the SIRIUS antenna to the SIRIUS radio. Instead, both the satellite TV signal and SIRIUS signal are combined together outdoors near the satellite TV dish. Inside the home at a convenient location, the combined signal is split back into two separate signals.

The SIRIUS outdoor antenna is a high-performance antenna, specifically de- signed to receive signals from the SIRIUS satellites and terrestrial (ground) trans- mitters when mounted outdoors on a home or other building, wall, pole, or roof. The antenna has been approved by Sirius Satellite Radio to receive the SIRIUS signal under a variety of conditions within the SIRIUS North American coverage area.

Installation of the Combiner and Splitter requires experience in mechanical and electrical procedures. Review this installation manual before beginning the installation process. If you are not comfortable or experienced with the installation procedures, SIRIUS recommends that you have a professional install the kit and wiring for you.

The antenna should be mounted according to the instructions in this manual to ensure the best quality reception of the SIRIUS signal. All necessary mounting hardware for a variety of mounting options is included with this kit.

In this installation guide, Direct Broadcast System is abbreviated as DBS and refers to the satellite TV system, either Dish Network or DIRECTV.
