About This Service

Why Choose Our Communal DSTV Systems

Communal DSTV systems distribute satellite signal from a single shared dish (or dish array) to multiple decoders in apartment blocks, sectional-title complexes, guest houses, B&Bs, retirement villages and small hotels. Done properly, communal systems save residents the cost of individual dishes and keep building facades clean. Done badly, they leave half the units with weak signal and frequent dropouts.

Our communal DSTV team designs, installs, commissions and maintains shared-distribution systems across Gauteng. We work with body corporates, building managers and complex developers from initial design through to commissioning each individual decoder live with MultiChoice.
