Satellite and antenna distribution

The highest performance method
of distributing satellite and
antenna (or CATV) signals is to
keep them separate. Run a second
coax cable to each room that will
have a satellite receiver.

Diplexers allow you to combine satellite
and antenna (or CATV) signals on a
single coax. Combining these signals
sometimes creates new problems: The
diplexer will reduce the signal strengths,
increasing the chance of noisy pictures.
Coupling the two also invites
interference. We recommend only
using diplexers when you cannot run a
second coax.
