You are speaking of a 3x8 multiswitch. 2input ports are for 1 LNB marked 13v & 18v. The center input port is for antenna or cable. You will need a diplexer switch at the other end of the cable before you input it into the FTA receiver. 1 port from the diplexer(as marked) goes to your receiver and the other output port(as marked) goes to the RF input on your TV.
