Hi has anyone used these labgear distribution systems before ? Would like a little help , what fitting is required at the box it says quadplexed but does it have to be quadplexed plus return ?

Any help please ?

Your question is a bit confusing matey, can you elaborate?, give details of box your questioning?, ta

I'm sorry mate at the sky box

TV aerial installation and distribution systems are a very specialised field Goldenboy, I spent over 40 years as a television engineer and although during the course of repairs to tv/s some aerial work was involved I never got involved with distribution systems as such, they were always handled by people with the necessary experience and equipment. Best to keep away from this type of work if you don't really understand what's involved. Sorry to put it this way but I think you'll be doing yourself and your client a favour by keeping clear of this job,

I take it you want the two LNB feeds and UHF at the SKY box and then the RF2 back up. Just fit a the quadplex outlet and return easy. Leave aerials and dishes to others, but the rest is easy. Even putting dishes up isn't that hard with a smart phone app and signal meter. Oh and always use good cable like CT100 and CT125 on longer runs plus fit deep boxes.

Does it have to be a quadplex Plus return ? Is that always on a double (double socket size) outlet ?

I'm assuming here that you've either got a skyplus box, or are at least future-proofing and allowing for one.... Starting at one end:

The skyplus box needs 2 sat feeds. If you use a quad plate that's your two feeds: sat+uhf+radio down one coax, and just sat down the other.

If you want a uhf return to feed sky to other tv's etc, then you will need another coax run. The quad plate is modular; use a 2g frame with quad module + return module + blank module.

IF you're using a non-recording sat box which only needs one feed then the SAT-2 on the quad plate can be your return.

Thanks impvan. So I need a 2 gang plate, which will be one module a quadplex ( two sat tvs, two normal tv) one blank, and a return. What actually is the return ? And for the rest of the tv aerial plates I take it normal outlet plates will be ok ? I don't want to bother with dab and phone line

This Triax system might be similar to your Labgear one.
The PDF shows how it all fits together, and you can even get a suitable faceplate for all services.
