Noob questions RE LNB's ?

Mike 1972 · 2010-07-29 18:00:36

Ive seen LNB's in a catalogue described as being "suitable for DVB-S2" Will an ordinary bog standard LNB not work for HDTV ? And what exactly is the difference between a "quad" and a "quattro" LNB ?

I'd assume this is the whole "digital aerials" thing again. There's no reason I'm aware of why any LNB wouldn't work with DVB-S2 signals.

Quad LNB: 4 outputs for 4 receivers which can be independently controlled.
Quattro LNB: 4 outputs, one for each of the available bands (low band V, low band H, high band V, high band H). Used for distribution systems rather than home satellite dishes.
