Review on πŸ“‘ Directv Msplit2r1-03 Approved 2-Way Wide Band SWM Splitter: Enhance Your Satellite TV Signal Strength Efficiently by Carlos Reyes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Large splitter

Excellent splitter. At first I used the BAMF splitter instead because it looked more impressive. I ended up using this one as the BAMF had a failed OUTPUT pin and I figured if this splitter is good enough for hundreds of thousands of DirecTV installations it should work for my antenna configuration. I needed a DC feed through splitter because I have a preamp with antenna mounted on the roof and the splitter is in the attic and I wanted to keep the power supply in my garage. This worked great and only lets DC through on one side, which I think could be more reliable. The BAMF splitter passed DC on both sides and only lasted a couple of weeks before one of my TVs became heavily pixelated on some channels while my other TV was perfectly fine despite operating with more signal loss than a pixelated TV. Now both TVs are fine with the SWM splitter.

Pros
  • DIRECTV approved for Multi-Room Viewing (MRV)
Cons
  • Long delivery time
