The Maximum Pro-Line P-8 Octo LNB is a cost-effective Universal LNB featuring eight independent outputs. It allows up to eight satellite receivers or tuners to be connected directly to one satellite dish without requiring a separate multiswitch.
Each output operates independently, allowing the connected receiver to select the low or high frequency band and vertical or horizontal polarisation. The model is therefore suitable for homes, multi-TV systems and larger multiroom installations.
With a noise figure of 0.2 dB and conversion gain of 50–65 dB, the P-8 provides stable performance for conventional digital satellite installations. It is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from −30 to +60°C.
The Maximum Pro-Line P-8 is an economical choice for installations requiring multiple directly connected receivers at a competitive price.

🔧 Use and Connection
The LNB is installed on the satellite dish and carefully adjusted to achieve the best possible signal strength and quality.
Each receiver or tuner must be connected to its own LNB output using a separate coaxial cable. All eight outputs operate independently and can be used simultaneously.
A Twin Tuner receiver requires two separate cables from the LNB for full functionality. Four Twin Tuner receivers can therefore use all eight available outputs.
Low- and high-band selection is controlled automatically using 0/22 kHz, while vertical and horizontal polarisation are selected through the receiver’s output voltage.
