What is a Communal System?

There are a few main types of communal systems for aerial and satellite reception.

• IRS     Integrated Receiving systems, the most used communal system for blocks of flats big housing estates, where only one main dish and aerial is required for the whole estate
• MATV        Master Antenna TV System. This type of system is the old type if TV aerial communal system, which were great in their day, and still work well, but do not offer the flexibility of being able to connect a satellite receiver facility.
• SMATV     Satellite Master Antenna TV systems. These type of systems are mainly used on hotel types systems. SMATV systems basically have one commercial grade receiver per satellite channel, put through an aerial system. This allows for each TV to be able to pick up the nominated satellite channels, without the need for a satellite receiver box for each room.
• Installations, maintenance, rentals

The systems above are the main types of systems in use today for communal and commercial aerial and satellite systems.

All of these systems can be reasonably small systems to very major systems that can incorporate fibre optic cables, sometimes even feeding whole housing estates.

The design and architecture of each system obviously varies according to each individual requirement . Some bigger communal aerial and satellite systems may even require fibre optic cables if the cable routes are very long, so as not to cause degradation of picture quality. Fibre Optic cables can carry signals for miles and miles, with exceptionally little loss!

Aerial Concepts can design, supply and install communal aerial and satellite systems according to your requirements and specification, installed to CAI communal standards.

Aerial Concepts can also tailor our services financially to your circumstances. We currently offer also a rental option also.
