SLx8L Aerial Amplifier

What Is It?

The SLx8L is a eight way aerial amplifier with multi inputs. It is designed to increase and improve FM radio, DAB radio, CCTV, VCR, satellite and terrestrial TV signals to up to 8 televisions/radios around the home from one location (e.g. loft).

How Does It Work?

The SLx8L combines TV, FM, DAB, CCTV and satellite signals on to one down cable feeding triplexed faceplates located near main AV equipment location (e.g. living room). the return cable from VCR/satellite box to loft box feeds up to 8 other viewing locations around home with AV signals.

Remote Control?

The infrared extender feature gives control over different AV sources from any viewing/listening location in conjunction with SLx Link(s). The SLx8L has an integrated digital bypass - the infrared extender works in conjunction with Sky™.

Anything Else?

The SLx8L has an Integrated UHF preamplifier and an integrated power supply. It has a stylish blue LNB power indicator and silver-gray metallic finish. The SLx8L is fully screened - ideal for digital satellite. Distribution of output from a set top box, DVD or VCR requires you to send a return path UHF signal to the loft - the SLx8L has an up link in socket for this. This up link is important as when using a SLx8L distribution box, there will be no signal at the
outputs unless the circuit is completed by linking the downlink output  to the uplink input after the signal is passed through your satellite receiver, as per the diagram opposite. This is so that the satellite signal (and video signal if required) can also be distributed around the house. If you are not connecting to a
satellite receiver, then the downlink output must be linked directly to the uplink input to complete the circuit, so for UHF to work alone the uplink and
downlink need to be connected.

If you need F-Plugs, coaxial plugs, crimping tools or other installation accessories please see our Coaxial Accessories section.

The SLx8L is often used with the SLx Link. See also Sky Remote Controls.

You may also need a Triplex Face Plate (see diagram opposite). These allow 3 seperate devices to be plugged into the SLx 4L or 8L, giving a socket for RF, a F Plug socket for Satellite TV and a FM/DAB Digital Radio socket.
