About the DStv Smart LNB
• The DStv Smart LNB is a new LNB specially designed and manufactured for DStv to meet the growing needs of our non-commercial installations.
• We recommend the DStv Smart LNB for all DStv Explora and most XtraView installations (when installed in a Single Unit Dwelling, ie. not a complex or apartment).
It is not suitable for Multiple Unit Dwellings (like complexes and apartments).
• The DStv Smart LNB combines the features of a DStv Switch into a single UniCable LNB and offers a single cable solution for distribution of multiple satellite signals.
It has 24 user bands, 4 UniCable outputs and 2 Universal outputs.
• For more information on the DStv Switch, please chat to your DStv Accredited Installer.

• The performance of your DStv decoder is directly related to the quality of the installation (including use of approved equipment
and correct alignment of the satellite dish).
• We recommend an 80cm satellite dish for all installations.
• We recommend the use of a DStv Accredited Installer for all installations. To find your closest installer visit dstv.com.
• The above recommendations are for all NEW installations, upgrades to new decoders or upgrades to XtraView.
• The DStv Explora will work if connected to a twin or quad LNB (used with a multiswitch) and with a UniCable LNB.
HOWEVER, if the DStv Explora is installed with any other type of LNB other than the DStv Smart LNB, the installation may
require changes to receive future services.
• XtraView installations require the decoders to be linked by a “ heartbeat” cable.
