I found this device in an electrical shop and the guy said it will split the cable with no signal loss. Does anyone have any idea about this? Picture of the device as attached.
Thanks in advance...

Guys, wanna ask how do I actually split 1 single Astro cable to 2 decoders, without pulling a new cable from the dish. Reason is my new place uses centralized dish and the cables are already concealed in the wall by the developer.

Taikor MPYW, I have 2 Astro subscriptions so no worries there. What is worrying is the signal loss because of the cable split. My current house, they just tap the new cable from the existing one, signal loss like fark...
I'm not sure how this device will help as it is also just splitting the cable to 2...so need U sifu's advise... |

Thanks bro Anfieldude. Right now I don't see any other alternative as all the cabling is in-wall and using shared centralized dish...

Sorry for omitting that info. Right now is still the old dish, but changing to b.yond dish soon. (Cabling no change though).
Does it make a difference though? |

The mgmt is working with Astro to change the dish. BTW, my place is a new project, just completed so the changing of dish will be fast as there is no one using it yet.
