The Johansson KIT 9645 Stacker-Destacker is a Multi Band Converter system that allows an existing single-cable satellite installation to be upgraded to support a twin LNB (or quad LNB with a DiSEqC switch, ref. 9920). The kit enables a dual-tuner receiver with recorder (PVR) or two separate single-tuner receivers to operate simultaneously over one cable.

The kit consists of two units: a Stacker (converter) installed near the dish and a Destacker (customer device) installed at the receiver. DiSEqC functionality allows reception from two satellites simultaneously — for example, Astra and Hot Bird. No external power adapter is required; both units are powered directly from the satellite receiver.

Key Features

• Two-input band-stacking Multi Band Converter system
• Enables twin LNB (or quad + DiSEqC switch) on a single existing coaxial cable
• Supports dual-input PVR or two separate single-tuner receivers
• DiSEqC function: receive signals from 2 satellites (e.g. Astra/Hot Bird)
• No external power adapter required — powered by the satellite receiver
• Wall or mast mounting with strap (Stacker unit)
• Operating range: up to 75 m of CT100 or 17 VAtC coaxial cable

Product Benefits

• Upgrades an existing single-cable system without rewiring — the Stacker and Destacker work over the cable already in place
• DiSEqC support allows access to two separate satellites without a dedicated second cable run
• Powering from the receiver eliminates the need to route mains power to the Stacker installation point
• Compatible with quad LNBs when used with a DiSEqC switch (ref. 9920), extending functionality beyond the twin-LNB scenario

Why You'll Love It

• No new cable run needed — the entire upgrade uses the coaxial already installed in the building
• Kit includes all required components: 1× Stacker, 1× Destacker, and usage instructions
• Wall and mast mounting strap on the Stacker keeps installation tidy without additional brackets
• Johansson's F-connector specification uses high-quality connectors on both the combined and split ports
