What are the Details of Satellite Systems Installation?
Location: The only requirement for the installation of the dish is a clearly south-facing location. Important for tenants: You need the landlord's permission to install a satellite dish on the facade of the house.
Dish: The required size depends on the aligned satellites. For the Astra 19.2° East, a bowl of about 60 cm in diameter is usually sufficient. Such a model provides a good view even when it is raining. Those who want to target other satellites will need a larger satellite dish. The same is true for a local system with more than four receivers. Here the diameter must be at least 80 cm.
Mounting: “Azimuth” (horizontal rotation direction) and “Height” (inclination angle) values are decisive for the direction of the dish. Each satellite receiver has a reception quality indicator in the settings menu.
Cable: Requires an antenna cable for each receiver, which must be routed to the satellite dish. Single-cable solutions can be used if there are already cables from the antenna or cable reception. They use existing cables and thus save complicated rerouting. Suitable solutions can be installed directly on the LNB or are available as a separate unit placed between the LNB and existing cables.
