Re: Is LNB Cable Length Significant?

I've done installs in a 6 story building where the satellite was on the roof and the wires ran down the hallways then down the pipe chase 5 stories and then down a hallway to the target office and dp worked fine. That was atleast 500 feet so you don't have anything to worry about.

I've also taken a whole roll of coax rg6 and and allow the receiver to run the lnb through 1000feet of it without issue.

don't worry about cable the only thing long cable runs will do is drop your voltage slightly
