Ideal Industries 85-333 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Ideal 85-333 3-way splitter pass DC power to a satellite LNB or does it block it?
All three output ports plus the input on the Ideal Industries 85-333 are power pass, rated 0.5 Amp DC and 60 Volt DC maximum, with 12 to 18 Volt DC typical. That means you can feed LNB voltage through any leg rather than having to track which port is the powered one, which is what trips people up on single-port-pass splitters.
2) Does this splitter cover satellite frequencies or only cable TV?
Both. The 85-333 is rated 5 MHz to 2.4 GHz, so it covers the cable/off-air band at the low end and runs up through satellite IF frequencies at the top. A splitter that stops at 1 GHz will not carry a satellite downlink; this one will.
3) How much signal will I lose on each leg of a 3-way satellite splitter like this?
Insertion loss on the Ideal 85-333 runs 7 dB to 11 dB across the rated frequency range, with the higher figure at the top of the band. Budget for that when you plan a long run or a cascade: if your margin is tight, amplify ahead of the split or use two 2-way splitters so you are not stacking an 11 dB loss onto an already weak feed.
4) Is this splitter shielded well enough for a multi-dwelling install with cellular and Wi-Fi gear nearby?
EMI/RFI shielding effectiveness is greater than -80 dB on the 85-333, and the housing is nickel plated zinc with the circuitry on an internal printed circuit board rather than loose wound components. That level of shielding is what keeps outside RF out of the distribution leg in apartment riser closets and commercial AV racks.
5) Can I run three TVs off one feed with this, or do I need a distribution amplifier?
The 85-333 takes one input and splits it to three balanced outputs, so three displays off one drop is exactly what it is for. Whether you also need an amp comes down to your incoming level against the 7 to 11 dB insertion loss plus cable loss on each run. Short runs in an office or retail space with multiple monitors are usually fine passive; long risers in a multi-unit building typically want amplification upstream of the splitter.
6) Will a nickel plated zinc splitter hold up in an unconditioned attic or outdoor enclosure?
The nickel plated zinc body on the 85-333 is specified for corrosion resistance, which is why it holds up better than bare die-cast in damp or temperature-swinging spaces. It is still a splitter body, not a weatherhead, so mount it inside a sealed ground block enclosure or demarc box if it is going outside rather than exposing it directly.
7) What is the exact part number to order this Ideal 3-way splitter?
Order Ideal Industries 85-333. That is the 3-way satellite and digital TV splitter with 5 MHz to 2.4 GHz bandwidth and all-port power pass, and it is the single model in this configuration.
