Questions & Answers

In addition to the eight ports of a splitter I already have, I have four other unconnected stations. Is there a bigger splitter for DirectTV or can they be daisy chained together?

In order to do this, a 16 port SWM Multiswitch is required. Depending on your setup, this multiswitch can connect up to 8 HD-enabled devices with 2 splitters With dual tuners or 16 standard or HD receivers, there are DVRs or DVRs with dual tuners. It was my pleasure to help.

Can you provide a power supply with this product?

Splitters such as this one come as a set. Depending on the power supply for SWM systems, they can be 21V, 24V, or 29V. There is a separate charge for each.

How do you connect power to the connector? The red connectors I see on it are both "out." What does this mean?

A red connector can be seen on the left upper corner of the dish. It is an input for the cable from the power adapter, and at the same time it is an output for the signal from the dish to the Input of the cable comes from the dish or switch and output comes from the power adapter. The cable connects to the connector on the side as well as the power adapter.

Thanks for stopping by. I have a friend that has a DTV/Fios combo installed. She has a SMW 4way splitter (Ms-CP441) Divide the 4RI into two Can this 8way splitter handle up to 6 rooms? I have the 03 model. ?

In fact, yes. As long as you only need one cable per room, this will handle up to 8 rooms. It has an input on one side and all of its outputs on the other side. The splitter I have is identical to the one shown in the picture.

Selected User Reviews For Directv 8-Way Wide Band Splitter for SWM LNB

The upgrade to SWM has been completed
5/5


Using this splitter in conjunction with the splitter was probably overkill, as this splitter supports only eight tuners at any time. There is no direct relationship between the number of tuners and the number of cable runs needed. Every cable run can support more than one tuner with SWM. A single cable run can support up to five tuners for a Genie. Three of the 8 remaining tuners remain to be tuned. The old installation of HR21-C had 3 of them There are two tuners in the HR24 HDDVR. In order for the Genie to function properly, I had to decommission two of the old tuners. To use both tuners on an HR24 with SWM enabled, only one cable is necessary, and the B-channel can be used independently There is a need to remove all band converters. Currently, I have each wired genie remote connected to one port of this splitter, so I am using all four of the ports available Listen to this, it is possible to do a self-install despite what DirecTV tells you. Even though there is still some work to be done, it is totally feasible.

For Genie, this is a great tool
5/5

I was looking for a SWM to use with my new Genie DTV system. This worked without any issues.

Performs exactly as stated in the description
5/5

A few reviews point out that it does not contain any DirecTV markings. This is the case with mine, and it works great. There are 5 television sets in my house in total, with 4 static and a 5th receiver I move around for tv setups from time to time, so the four port splitter DirecTV provided me was not performing well. Now that I have this item hooked up, I don't have to go back to the splitter often to change the connection points. My f- came also with 7 or 8 holes There were also type terminators attached, which was nice.

The product looks used
3/5

On a positive note, I received what I ordered, it looks great, contains all the terminators and it arrived within the suggested delivery window. The top of the box, however, was decorated with an arrow pointing to one of the terminals, suggesting that this is a second-hand.

That is how it Upon receiving the item, I found that it was not as pictured (no DirecTV logo, made in China) and was purchased through I check with my HD DVR Genie setup (HR44 and three C41 Mini clients), however, and it appears to work as it should
4/5

It is impossible for me to tell if my signal has improved, stayed the same or deteriorated, but the TV picture looks good as it always has. In case of any changes, I will update the review.

Terminators shown in the ad are not included
3/5

Listed as having 7 ports, this wide band splitter appears to have 7 terminated ports. Terminators did not arrive with it and the endoscope was unterminated. This review was not written directly to the seller due to being unable to connect directly. According to the picture, it should have looked like that.

Is a fake
3/5

There was a Chinese counterfeit item in the store. I could not connect to any ports. During a busy schedule, I was unable to do the testing in time, so I couldn't send it Please steer clear of this area.

This is a way splitter
5/5

Those of you who own a DirecTV subscription and want to convert the legacy system into a SWM system should consider obtaining this item for conversion. You can set-up SWM to do the following Connect a Whole Home DVR to one RG6 cable in every room of your house and use it for the whole In order to distribute the amplified signals from the SWM box, a special splitter is required when the signal comes into the TV signal distribution It was delivered promptly by the seller and the product is great. The pros are Is exactly what I expected. The cons are I don't know The temperature needs to be 90 degrees Fahrenheit An input connector for the DC power supply will make installation more It is recommended for buyers who are familiar with the ways in which SWM signals operate.
