The GT-Sat / Smart Quad Monoblock LNB 4.3° provides a practical solution for receiving two closely spaced satellite positions with one dish. It is particularly suitable for the combination of Astra 19.2°E and Astra 23.5°E. It may also be used for other satellite pairs with a similar spacing, such as Eutelsat 9°E and Hotbird 13°E, provided that the dish size, geographical location and installation are suitable.
Its integrated DiSEqC switch automatically changes between the satellites according to commands from the receiver. No separate external DiSEqC switch is therefore required.
With four independent outputs, up to four satellite receivers or tuners can be connected directly. The product is also suitable for two Twin Tuner receivers, allowing users to watch one programme while recording another.
A typical noise figure of 0.2 dB, Universal LNB operation and integrated weather protection make the model suitable for reliable digital satellite reception. An adapter ring is included for installation in a compatible 40 mm LNB holder.

🛰️ Satellite Combinations
| Satellite combination | Orbital spacing | Information |
|---|
| Astra 19.2°E + Astra 23.5°E | 4.3° | Primary intended application |
| Eutelsat 9°E + Hotbird 13°E | 4.0° | May work with a suitable dish and precise alignment |
Successful reception of both satellites depends on dish size and geometry, geographical location, satellite footprints and installation accuracy.
🔧 Connection and Operation
Each of the four outputs operates independently. Every connected receiver or tuner can therefore select its satellite position, polarisation and frequency band independently of the other connected tuners.
Connect and configure the LNB as follows:
One coaxial cable from each output in use to the corresponding receiver or tuner
Receiver LNB type: Universal 9750/10600 MHz
Satellite switching: DiSEqC 1.0
Low band: 0 kHz
High band: 22 kHz
Vertical polarisation: normally 13V
Horizontal polarisation: normally 18V
The satellite order assigned to the DiSEqC ports may vary between brands or deliveries. Follow the markings on the supplied product and verify the signal through the receiver’s installation menu.
The product shown in the supplied image is marked:
Sat 1: Astra 19.2°E
Sat 2: Astra 23.5°E
📡 Capacity
| Installation | Capacity |
|---|
| Standard single-tuner satellite receivers | Up to 4 receivers |
| Twin Tuner receivers | Up to 2 receivers |
| One Twin Tuner receiver | Uses 2 of the 4 outputs |
| Available satellite positions | 2 |
| Independent LNB outputs | 4 |
Capacity should be calculated by the number of tuners. A Twin Tuner receiver normally requires two separate cables and two LNB outputs for fully independent operation.
