Satellite multiswitch Televes MS56NCQ 5 inputs 6 outputs

The Televes MS56NCQ 5 inputs 6 outputs satellite multiswitch distributes satellite signals from up to four LNB polarities plus terrestrial or a fifth input to six independent outputs. It covers a frequency range of 950–2400 MHz and is designed for installations where several receivers or set-top boxes need simultaneous access to satellite services. The device features low power consumption and compact housing suitable for wall or rack mounting in distribution cabinets.

Advantages

The Televes MS56NCQ offers consistent signal routing to multiple outputs while maintaining signal integrity across the supported frequency band. Its low current draw reduces overall system power needs, and the built-in isolation between outputs minimizes interference between connected receivers. The unit’s straightforward input/output layout simplifies installation and cable management for both professional and residential setups.

Key specifications

• Inputs: 5 (four satellite LNB polarities + one terrestrial or additional satellite input)
• Outputs: 6 independent outputs
• Frequency range: 950–2400 MHz
• Power consumption: 40 mA (low current draw)
• Isolation: output-to-output isolation to reduce crosstalk
• Form factor: compact housing for wall or cabinet mounting

How to use

Connect the satellite LNB feeds to the four designated satellite inputs and, if required, connect a terrestrial antenna or an additional satellite feed to the fifth input. Run coaxial cables from each of the six outputs to the respective receivers or set-top boxes. Ensure proper F-type connectors are used and tighten connections to prevent signal loss. Apply power according to the overall headend or multiswitch power arrangement; the unit’s low current consumption allows it to integrate with common power supplies used in residential and small commercial installations.

Recommendations

Place the multiswitch in a ventilated, dry location away from strong electromagnetic sources. Use high-quality coaxial cable and connectors to preserve signal quality across the 950–2400 MHz band. Verify compatibility of connected receivers with the distribution topology and, when combining terrestrial signals, check frequency plans to avoid band conflicts.
