  "text": "Description of the goods\nClassification (CN code)\nReasons\n(1)\n(2)\n(3)\nAn electronic apparatus (so-called ‘multi-switch’) in a housing with dimensions of approximately 26 × 12 × 7 cm, equipped with the following interfaces:\nfour intermediate frequency inputs with level adjuster for low noise block (LNB) down-converters,\none input with level adjuster for terrestrial TV aerials,\nfour outputs for connection of satellite receivers.\nIt has a built-in amplifier for compensating cable loss.\nThe apparatus is designed for use in multi-subscriber systems for television reception via satellite, such as ‘quad LNB’ systems. It enables several satellite receivers to receive different television signals via one satellite dish, but does not convert nor modify the signals.\nThe apparatus also allows distribution of one terrestrial TV signal.\n8543 70 90\nClassification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8543, 8543 70 and 8543 70 90.\nGiven that the apparatus only allows the distribution of television signals, and given that the satellite aerial can function without the apparatus, the apparatus is not considered essential for the functioning of the aerial. Consequently, classification as a part of an aerial of heading 8529 is excluded.\nThe apparatus is therefore to be classified under CN code 8543 70 90 as an apparatus having an individual function not specified or included elsewhere in Chapter 85.",
