Which Triplexer wall plate/Masthead or Loft Triplexer combo is recommended (or works)?

Hi deep in Somerset here we are gradually upgrading the Beovisions in the house.  Now they have become affordable and comparible in price to the old MX4000 5 years ago (in real terms).

For our breakfast/diner I have recently acquired a Beocenter 6/23 and there are more input sockets that I am familiar with.

Power, tick

ML cable, tick

Aerial cable, tick

FM, ???

DAB, ???

Without banging holes in the walls again I understand that the signals for TV & FM/DAB (also Sat if it was required) can be sucked out of one aerial cable and unscrambled on the wall with a Triplexer wall plate.  After of course the signal was similarly pushed down one wire from the attic where I can connect up TV/FM/DAB incoming aerial cables using a triplexer.

Looking at what is available it appears that most of the triplexer wall plates have a socket for SAT, TV & FM/DAB.  Now what I want is TV, FM & DAB.  Or will I have to have to fit externally a FM/DAM Diplexer to sort out the radio?

It would be a shame for the filters in the wall plate to suppress the signal for either FM or DAB especially if I am going to have to install a new DAB aerial to get it in the first place.

At our current rate of Beovision upgrade we should be watching the repeats of Morecambe and Wise at Christmas on a Beovision 11 by 2025!

As usual all help recieved with thanks
