Amiko Parabolic LNB Head
In the Amiko LNB holder category, you can find brackets designed to secure two, three or four LNBs on a single satellite dish. The LH2 supports two LNBs and the reception of two satellites, the LH3 supports three LNBs and three satellites, while the LH4 supports four LNBs and four satellites. The appropriate version is determined by the number of LNBs and the type of satellite dish. Read more...

Amiko LNB holder for securing multiple LNBs
The Amiko LH series includes three antenna accessories with different capacities. The LH2 secures two, the LH3 three and the LH4 four LNBs. The models cannot be considered automatically interchangeable because the supported number of LNBs and the documented antenna compatibility differ by type.
What is the Amiko LH2 universal LNB holder used for?
The Amiko LH2 universal dual LNB holder has the item number AMI-131-999. It is designed to secure two LNBs and can therefore be used for the reception of two satellites. It accommodates two universal LNBs and can be used with Triax satellite dishes. A common configuration is the reception of Astra 1 and Astra 2, but it can also be used for other satellites.
What does the Amiko LH3 triple LNB holder provide?
The Amiko LH3, item number AMI-132-999, is designed to secure three LNBs. By installing three universal LNBs, the reception of three satellites can be implemented. The holder can be used with Amiko S80 and S100 antennas and can also be installed on Triax satellite dishes. It is commonly used for Astra 1, Astra 2 and Astra 3 reception, but it can also be used for other satellites.
Amiko LH4 LNB bracket for four LNBs
The Amiko LH4, item number AMI-133-999, is a multifeed holder designed for four LNBs. By securing four LNBs, it can be used for the reception of four satellites. The LH4 is compatible with Amiko S80 and S100 antennas and can also be installed on Triax satellite dishes. A common configuration includes Astra 1 at 19.2 degrees east, Astra 3 at 23.5 degrees east, Astra 2 at 28.2 degrees east and Hotbird at 13 degrees east.
Which satellite dishes are compatible with the Amiko LNB holder?
Antenna compatibility must always be checked for the selected LH version. For the LH3 and LH4, the Amiko S80 and S100 satellite dishes are documented compatible models. Both holders can also be installed on Triax antennas. The LH2 description specifies Triax satellite dishes and two universal LNBs, but does not associate the S80 and S100 model designations with this version.
Which satellite dish accessory fits S80 and S100 antennas?
The LH3 and LH4 holders can be used with S80 and S100 antennas. The LH3 secures three LNBs, while the LH4 secures four. The selection must therefore consider both the antenna type and the required number of LNBs. For the LH2, the exact type of the existing Triax antenna must be checked separately.
Amiko LH2, LH3 and LH4 LNB holder versions
The main documented specifications of the three models are listed below.
- Amiko LH2, AMI-131-999: two LNBs, reception of two satellites, two universal LNBs, Triax satellite dish.
- Amiko LH3, AMI-132-999: three LNBs, reception of three satellites, three universal LNBs, Amiko S80, S100 and Triax antennas.
- Amiko LH4, AMI-133-999: four LNBs, reception of four satellites, multifeed design, Amiko S80, S100 and Triax antennas.
The model numbers and item numbers support the accurate identification of each version.
How should you choose a dual, triple or quad LNB holder?
For two LNBs, select the LH2; for three, select the LH3; and for four, select the LH4. The antenna compatibility must then be compared with the specifications of the selected holder. For S80 or S100 antennas, the use of the LH3 and LH4 is documented. For Triax antennas, all three versions are associated with this application, but the exact antenna model must be checked before ordering.
Advantages of the Amiko LNB holder versions
The documented advantages of the product range are based on the different LNB capacities.
- The LH2 can secure two LNBs on a single satellite dish.
- The LH3 can be used with three LNBs for the reception of three satellites.
- The LH4 can be used with four LNBs for the reception of four satellites.
- The LH3 and LH4 are specified for Amiko S80 and S100 antennas.
You can select from the three capacities according to the number of LNBs required in your satellite reception system.
Which limitations must be considered?
The capacity and documented compatibility of the models are different.
- The LH2 is designed for two, the LH3 for three and the LH4 for four LNBs.
- S80 and S100 compatibility is specified for the LH3 and LH4 models.
- For the LH2, a Triax antenna and two universal LNBs are specified.
- The compatibility data of one model cannot automatically be applied to another LH version.
Accurate model identification is therefore part of the pre-order verification process.
LNB bracket and antenna accessory for satellite reception
The Amiko LH2, LH3 and LH4 mechanically secure the selected number of LNBs on a satellite reception antenna. The holder does not replace the LNB; it is a satellite dish accessory used for positioning the LNB. A multiple-LNB arrangement enables the reception of multiple satellites with the same antenna, according to the dual, triple or quad capacity of the holder.
How does the antenna accessory connect to the satellite dish?
The LH2 is designed for two universal LNBs. The LH3 allows three universal LNBs to be secured, while the LH4 can be used for a four-LNB multifeed arrangement. When selecting the holder, the model number, the required number of LNBs and the model of the satellite dish must be considered together.
What should be checked when matching the LNB and satellite dish?
First, determine the required number of LNBs. Then check the manufacturer and exact model designation of the antenna. The LH3 and LH4 can be used with S80 and S100 antennas, while the LH2 is specified for Triax satellite dishes and two universal LNBs. Finally, identify the product by its item number.
Universal LNB holder checklist
Before ordering, the following data should be compared.
- The number of LNBs to be secured.
- The LH2, LH3 or LH4 model designation.
- The manufacturer and exact model of the satellite dish.
- S80, S100 or Triax compatibility.
- The AMI-131-999, AMI-132-999 or AMI-133-999 item number.
This verification helps identify the required Amiko antenna accessory.
