4 swm 16 switches...

[superiorman01]

So i am slowly adding customers to an apartment building and I need to have 4 swm 16 switches. Can go from the dish into a 6x16 switch then run all the swm 16 switches off of that? What would the the signal loss in the 6x16. I am trying to keep this install on the cheap but still good.

I think you can cascade 2 without an issue. I think anything after 2, you will need an amplifier.

Best to just install 2 Dishes and cascade 2 SWM switches off each Dish, unless you want to start getting into launch amplifiers, slope equalizers, and taps.
