Multiswitch Configuration
This configuration is only used when the multiswitch is not located on the roof.
In this configuration the SIRIUS signal and the satellite TV signal are combined
on one common cable on the roof. The combined signal is then carried from the
roof to the multiswitch where the signal is split back into separate signals before
the multiswitch. The benefit of the SIRIUS Combiner/Splitter in this installation is
avoiding having to run an additional cable for the SIRIUS radio from the roof to
the interior of the home.
The following illustration shows the installation of the Combiner/Splitter before
the multiswitch.
