  • FeaturesUniversal
  • Feeds up to 30 tuners in two banks of 15 for large installations
  • Replaces SWM-8, SWM-16 and SWM-32 multiswitches with a single unit
  • Works with previous-generation Slimline dishes and Genie 2 equipment
  • Powers coax devices up to 13V, 500mA without extra adapters
  • Requires separate PI-29 power inserter to operate

Product purpose and installers

The DIRECTV SWM30 multiswitch distributes satellite signals to up to 30 tuners across two isolated banks of 15 channels each. It is built for professional installers wiring large residential or commercial systems that use SWM-capable receivers such as Genie or Genie 2.

Sustained-load behaviour

The switch maintains 30 simultaneous SWM channels without MoCA or MRV crossover between the two banks. Each bank handles 15 tuners continuously, supporting 4K feeds and WorldDIRECT dish configurations when paired with the required diplexer.

Thermals noise and power

The unit powers coax-connected devices at up to 13V and 500mA with an output level of -25dBm. It requires a separate PI-29Z power inserter for operation and replaces earlier SWM-8, SWM-16 and SWM-32 models in compatible Slimline dish setups.
