Universal LNBs (Ku)

• Single LNBs: Only one output for a single receiver. Or to distribute the signal around the house. *
• Twin LNBs: Two direct outputs for two receivers.
• Quad LNBs: Four direct outputs for four receivers.
• Octo LNBs: Eight direct outputs for eight receivers.
• Quattro LNBs: Four outputs with separate polarities for use with multiswitches. (Homes with 8 or more outlets, and community facilities)

* From a single LNB the signal can be distributed throughout a home as long as we bear in mind that we will only be able to use one receiver at a time if we feed it from the receiver. And if we feed the LNB with a separate source, we will only have a single polarity throughout the house.

Noise figure: Value between 0.1 and 0.7. The lower the noise figure, the better the LNB behaves to receive the signal. (It is not a deciding factor though, some LNBs with a high noise figure value work much better in certain situations).

In this video we show what the different universal LNBs look like and when:
