Is it possible to add a multiswitch to an existing sky dish using a quad/quattro lnb?
I would like to upgrade the following setup:
Two storey house with tv outlets in four upstairs bedrooms,down stairs living room and dining room. All coax cables are single feeds home run to attic, plan to add two more runs to downstairs living and dining room.

Existing vhf/uhf set up pointing at maghera for RTE1,2,TV3 & TG4.

Existing Sky dish with single feed clipped to external wall of house fed through a drilled hole into living room supplying a sky box(account canceled) .

The plan is to fit a quad/quattro lnb to sky dish have a short run of four coax cables into attic and connect everything to the multiswitch.Is it possible to achieve the following set up below using the existing sky dish and using this multiswitch-5in/8out standalone distribution system

Proposed Sky FTV/Freesat and Terrestrial tv/radio setup

This ProfiLine Multischalter 5/8 P.143-UP shows it working with a quad lnb. Is it possible it will work with a sky quad or can i get a quattro lnb that will work on a sky dish?
