DIRECTV – SWM Wiring
Follow the steps below to wire a DIRECTV
system that includes SWM receivers.
Connecting 1 Receiver
Connect an RF cable from the "SWM" jack on the
TV-Hub to the "Satellite In" jack on the receiver/
DVR as shown in Figure 25.
Connecting 2-8 Receivers
Configurations for connecting multiple receivers
include a SWM splitter that supports up to 8
tuners.
Refer to Figure 26 to determine the tuners
consumed by each type of SWM component.
Refer to wiring diagrams in Appendix A for
connecting multiple SWM receivers and
connecting a network for autoswitching (see
page 30), and wiring for Genie devices (see
31).
Wire the system as follows:
a. Connect an RF cable from the "SWM" jack on
the back of the TV-Hub to the "SWM" port on
the SWM splitter.
b. Connect an RF cable to each port of the SWM
splitter required by the configuration, and
connect its other end to the "Satellite In"
connector on the receiver/DVR, or
"Network" port when connecting a Genie
client.
c. Terminate any unused connectors on the
splitter with a supplied 75terminator.
d. Connect the TV-Hub and each receiver you
want to control satellite selection to the
vessel's network. If a network is not
available, manual switching with a mobile
device is an alternative.
