MATV Installation & Repair Service
MATV systems are commonly used in strata-title buildings, hospitals, hotels, motels, retirement villages, and nursing homes with multiple televisions. An MATV system is essentially a network of cables and specially designed components that process and amplify both Satellite and TV signals, distributing them from a central location to multiple TV outlets.
For instance, if a building has 90 televisions, it would be both costly and impractical to install 90 separate antennas. Additionally, reception quality would suffer as the numerous antennas would interfere with each other. Satellite signals running through MATV systems typically include services like Foxtel Pay TV, which is received through a commercial Foxtel satellite dish.
We have extensive experience in the design, installation, repair, and servicing of commercial TV antenna systems and MATV systems. Serving areas from the Sunshine Coast to Brisbane, we can efficiently diagnose and repair satellite MATV distribution systems of any size, ensuring optimal performance and reliability for your building or facility.
Foxtel Satellite Multistacker
The Foxtel Multistacker is a single-cable solution designed to receive both high and low band signals from Foxtel's satellite system. It handles vertically and horizontally polarized signals, passing the horizontally polarized signals unchanged, while frequency-shifting the vertically polarized signals. These shifted signals are then inserted above the horizontally polarized signals and into the frequency gaps.
This eliminates the need for polarity switching on the line, as well as the requirement for two cables to support the recording functionality in the IQ4 boxes. It's important to note that only Foxtel Multistacker-approved parts should be used for installations and upgrades involving this one-cable solution. This is because the operating frequencies of the Multistacker system are higher than those of the standard dual-polarity Foxtel satellite system.
The Multistacker frequencies reach up to 2350 MHz, compared to the standard dual-polarity system's 2150 MHz. At our company, we specialize in the upgrade, installation, and commissioning of the Foxtel Multistacker system for both domestic and commercial buildings. Our expertise ensures that the system is integrated seamlessly to provide superior performance.
Foxtel MATV Testing & Data Logging
We use the latest Foxtel-approved meter for the installation and commissioning of all commercial Foxtel Satellite Systems, including the multi-stacker one-cable solution. For all commercial installations, commissioning must be performed with a Foxtel-approved meter before Foxtel will activate the building's service. After completing data logging at all specified points in the system, the data is uploaded to a computer, processed, and incorporated into the Foxtel Statement of Work (SOW) document. This document is then submitted for approval, after which the building will be officially switched on and connected to the Foxtel service.
