The Selfsat H50M4 is a high-performance, discreet flat satellite antenna designed to receive two orbital positions with one antenna. The Quad version provides four independent receiver connections and can supply up to four satellite receivers or tuners without requiring an external multiswitch.
The antenna is particularly suitable for satellite combinations separated by approximately 6°, such as Astra 19.2° East and Eutelsat Hot Bird 13° East. Switching between the two satellite positions is performed automatically through DiSEqC commands from the connected receiver.
The H50M4 may also be suitable for other satellite combinations, such as Astra 19.2°/23.5° East or Astra 4A/Thor, depending on the installation location, satellite coverage and orbital spacing.
The flat antenna provides a gain of up to 33.7 dBi at 12.7 GHz. According to the supplied product information, its reception performance is comparable to a high-quality conventional 80 cm satellite dish.
Its modern white enclosure creates a considerably more discreet installation than a traditional round dish. The supplied mounting bracket allows installation on a wall, mast or suitable balcony railing.

🛰️ Reception from Two Satellites
The Selfsat H50M4 is designed to receive signals from two orbital positions with one antenna.
Examples of possible combinations include:
- Astra 19.2° East and Eutelsat Hot Bird 13° East
- Astra 19.2° East and Astra 23.5° East
- Astra 4A and Thor
Satellite selection is performed automatically using DiSEqC commands from the receiver. The user selects a channel normally, and the receiver controls which satellite position is used.
Compatibility with other satellite combinations depends on orbital spacing, signal strength and satellite coverage at the installation location.
👥 Four Independent Connections
The H50M4 is the Quad version of Selfsat’s multi-satellite antenna and is designed to supply up to four separate satellite tuners.
The outputs can be used for:
- Four separate satellite receivers
- Four televisions with integrated DVB-S2 tuners
- Two twin-tuner receivers
- One twin-tuner PVR and two separate televisions
Each tuner requires a separate coaxial cable directly from the antenna. A twin-tuner receiver normally uses two of the antenna’s four outputs.
🎯 Ideal For
- Astra and Hot Bird reception in one installation
- Houses and terraced homes
- Apartments and balconies
- Holiday homes
- Homes with several satellite receivers
- Televisions with integrated DVB-S2 tuners
- Twin-tuner PVR receivers
- Locations where a round satellite dish is undesirable
- Wall mounting
- Mast mounting
- Installation on a suitable balcony railing
- Reception of European Ku-band satellites
🔧 Installation
The Selfsat H50M4 can be installed on a stable wall, mast or suitable balcony railing using the supplied mounting bracket.
The antenna requires a clear line of sight towards both selected satellite positions. After mounting, carefully adjust azimuth, elevation and polarisation. Accurate alignment is particularly important because the antenna must be optimised for two satellites.
Each receiver or tuner is connected using a separate satellite-grade coaxial cable. The receiver’s DiSEqC settings must be configured so that the correct satellite is assigned to each port.
Use a professional satellite signal meter capable of measuring both satellite positions. Confirm signal strength and quality from both satellites before fully tightening the mounting hardware.
Professional installation is recommended for optimum results.
