Four receivers or DVRs, with power inserter, connected using SWM1 and SWM2 ports and two 1x2 splitters

NOTE: If you have a SWM dish with one output, that output acts like the SWM1 port out of SWM8 multiswitch (in effect, the SWM dish has a SWM8 built into it and has one line running out). Wiring from a SWM dish is the same as a SWM8 using only the SWM1 port.
