Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of your satellite signal distribution kit. The kit is supplied with a 4 way TV signal
amplifier and is designed to distribute Sky™ signals from a single receiver as well as digital terrestrial signals
around your home to up to 4 TVs without loss of signal strength. The 3 SLx Link eyes supplied with the kit allow a
central Sky™ box to be controlled from up to 3 remote locations. The signal booster is 4G ready - which means it
removes interference and channel loss caused by 4G mobile phone signals. Please Note: To receive output from the
satellite RF2 output you will need a TV with an analogue tuner.
Distributing the satellite signal around your home
Planning your distribution system - Choosing a location for the SLx distribution amplifier
The 4 way TV signal distribution amplifier may be fitted in any convenient position the most popular
being in the sitting room near an existing TV aerial socket and close to your Sky™ box. Alternatively
it may be easier to run cable to your other rooms from the loft or some other location. In choosing a
location, consider the following:
a) The amplifier needs to be plugged into the mains, so it must be near a socket.
b) You will need to run cables from the amplifier to each outlet point and to minimise signal loss cable
runs should be kept as short as possible.
c) You must be able to connect the cable from the aerial to the input of the amplifier via your Sky™
box (plus DVR/VCR if you wish to distribute signals from these as well as your satellite and aerial) .

Once you have decided where you want to site your amplifier and each surface socket. Run individual
cables from the amplifier to the surface sockets. Then wire coax plugs and sockets as shown overleaf.

- Page 4 Troubleshooting Digital terrestrial signals blocking/freezing and/or loss of digital picture and sound can be caused by insufficient digital signal and carrier to noise ratio. Similarly blocking and even a completely blank screen with no sound can result if the input signal to the set top box is too high.
