Quad outlet faceplates and filtering



Hi, all.

When I installed my distribution system, I thought ahead and ran 2 runs of CT-100 from the multiswitch the each potential TV point.

At the moment, I'm using triax triplex outlets, SAT / UHF /FM.
These are fed from a single cable run.
The second cable run is coiled up in the wall, unused at the moment.

I want to fit a quad outlet plate, with Sat1 / Sat2 / Uhf / FM for use with my new Foxsat PVR, bringing the second cable run into use, eg the modulat plate here:

Looking at the technical details ( there's a basic diagram if you scroll down ):
Input 1 is fed to the tripexer, and split to feed Sat1, UHF, FM.
Input 2 is fed *directly* to the Sat2 outlet.

Now, this will contain the UHF and FM/DAB signals from the multiswitch too, aparently unfiltered.

Will it upset the PVR by saturating the sat tuner input? Do I need to filter this out externally before feeding it to the PVR's second tuner? Or do sat tuners generally reject the lower frequency stuff at their inputs? Or is the 'schematic' on the web-page over-simplified, and there is actually filtering on the sat2 output?

Advice?
