I am upgrading from a 3LNB dish to a 5LNB dish and currently have an external mounted 5x8 multiswitch that carries OTA/SAT to 5 locations in my house. I plan to replace the multiswitch with a SWM-8 and to upgrade my existing HD tuners via DirectTV offer to replace these free of charge. I do not want to do any more cabling than is necessary to make the new set up work. To make this work, I will need to split my OTA signal so that it is carried into the SWM-8 and also diplexed into 3 legacy ports. This will require a 4-way splitter for the OTA signal, 2 diplexers to combine the OTA signal and send it through the legacy ports, in addition to the 2-way splitter I will need to send the SWM signal to my new HD tuners under my planned set-up.
I know the SWM-8 can be mounted outdoors, Can the additional splitters and diplexers I willl need to pull this off also be mounted outside? Can you recommend any products or techniques that will afford a neat outdoor installation of this bundle of splitters and diplexers that I will need to replace what was once neatly contained in one single 5x8 multiswitch in my original installation?
Thanks for any insights.
