I also am no expert on this so I will share MY experience relative to this subject. This is for a Dish system, however the factory wiring is the same in all units.
My unit has 2 coax cables from the roof to the main tv area, and 2 coax cables from the water compartment to the main tv area. 2 cables are required from each satellite connection IF you want HD. There are 2 cable connections on the back of my Dish receiver marked sat #1 and sat #2. Each of the cables (a total of 4) from the 2 different areas are also marked as #1 & #2. You have to decide which set to use depending on which type (roof or portable) of sat dish you have. These connect directly to the receiver and bypass the switching unit. Then a cable (again your choice, coax, HDMI or rca) goes to the tv set from the Dish unit. We do not have a tv in the bedroom (bedrooms are for sleeping) so I do not know how to get the signal to that set. YEMV
