Need a switch for 6 sats and 4 boxes.

[777aaron]

Right now I am using 1 chieta 4*1 diseqc for 119/118,110,129,and 91,and then I have another chieta 4*1 with 82 on port 1,then they go into a 22khz switch which I use the on side for 82.I run 3 stb's in my livingroom using the loop out to connect them,but they must all be on the same sat and same type of transponder(V or H)and this is a pain.All my lnb's are standard circular with dual outputs except the 119,118.8 combo which is a cb2008a.I want to add sat 101 with a linear lnb and would like the ability to add more sats in the future.I also want to have some recievers in different rooms,probably 4 or 5 seperate stb's all together.Can someone point me to a sight that has some good switch diagrams that would fit this system combination.Also,I have no problem using powered switchs but would like to stay away from dp switchs because of the linear lnb I plan on adding.Thanks for any help.

You could do it with three 4x8 switches, and a diseqc switch for each receiver.

I use 3 zinwell 4x4 with 4 cheita heavy duty switches.. works great.
got 110,118,119,129,82 and 91

How do these zinwell switchs work?Do they have the 22khz switch built in and is it labeled?From what I can see looking at pics of them it looks like they have one side labeled as 13v and another as 18 v,is this the same as 22 Khz?I have not bought any yet but I notice there are 4*8 and 6*8,is there a difference and can I use the 6*8 and just not use the additional ports if I find them cheaper?

The 4x8 switches use an internal 22K switch. The 6x8 switches don't work very well from what I've been reading... At best they'll function as 4x8, the flex ports will never work with FTA receivers.

The 13v and 18v inputs are for Vertical and Horizontal... Legacy LNBs use DC voltage to select H and V transponders. The switch holds one LNB output at 13v, and the other at 18v. That's why you need two cables from each LNB to the switch.

Do have config for this setup I can't get it to work with ilink 9500 works fine with 9000
