WISI DXS0508 FLEXSWITCH Multiswitch 5 Inputs 8 Outputs Active with Power Supply

Satellite installers and multi-dwelling unit technicians often need a reliable way to distribute signals from a Quattro LNB and a terrestrial antenna to multiple receivers. The WISI DXS0508 FLEXSWITCH active multiswitch handles exactly that: four satellite polarisations plus one terrestrial input are distributed to eight subscriber outputs, each capable of independently selecting any input via DiSEqC commands. The integrated power supply simplifies installation, and the compact housing fits neatly into distribution cabinets.

Key specifications

• 5 inputs: 4 SAT (950–2150 MHz) + 1 terrestrial (47–862 MHz)
• 8 subscriber outputs with F-type connectors
• Active design with integrated power supply (18 V, max 500 mA LNB supply)
• DiSEqC 2.0 switching (compatible with 1.0)
• High isolation: >30 dB SAT-to-SAT and SAT-to-terrestrial
• Shielding class A, operating temperature -20 to +50 °C
• Power consumption max 10 W

Why choose it

The DXS0508 combines low insertion loss with robust switching, ensuring stable reception even in larger installations. Its active terrestrial path provides 10 dB gain to compensate for cable losses, while the SAT path maintains 0 dB gain for transparent signal transfer. The integrated power supply eliminates the need for an external unit, reducing clutter and potential failure points.

Ideal use cases

• Multi-dwelling units (MDUs) with up to 8 satellite TV points
• Small hotels, hospitals, or office buildings distributing SAT and terrestrial TV
• Upgrading existing single-cable systems to multi-switch architecture
• Installations where a Quattro LNB and terrestrial antenna need to feed multiple receivers

Good to know

The FLEXSWITCH series is known for its durability and ease of installation. All connectors are standard F-type, and the unit is designed for indoor use. For best performance, use high-quality coaxial cable and ensure proper grounding. The multiswitch is compatible with all common DiSEqC receivers and supports both horizontal and vertical polarisations as well as high and low bands.
