Hello all,

I had installed in my home last October by a dish technician, a Hopper with Sling, a Super Joey and two wireless Joeys.

My plan is as we long term travel in our motorhome(MH), that I can move all four components into the MH.

To accomplish that I've purchased a Winegard Trav'ler , and acquire an integrator and node. So the while the technician was here I asked him what exactly I need to have, together we created this wiring diagram.

Since then I've been wondering if I need a MOCA cable from the SJ to the HOPPER? Or is that not required? Or if there is a more efficient means of connecting the components.

Any suggestions or corrections are welcome.

TIA

I'm not familiar with the Winegard Trav'ler, but you might want to check it to see if it has three coax connectors. If not it won't work with the super joey. The dish I have on my motorhome is same as a Dish 1000.2 but it only has two coax connectors.
 
The Winegard Trav'ler has three coax connectors at the base of the dish.

The typical RV installation to to run one coax to the living room area and one coax to the bedroom area.

The challenge is to get the third coax to the LR area.
 
The traveler, is the equivalent of a 1000.2 WA dish, but is automatic and great!!! It even reports a DPP switch, which is completely different than most other auto dishes.
