The Hartenbos problem: shared dishes and tangled cabling
In complexes, one dish often feeds several units through old splitters and long cable runs. When one unit adds a decoder or someone moves a cable, other units lose channels — and nobody knows which wire goes where.
In Hartenbos complexes and holiday units, we first identify whether the fault belongs to one decoder, one unit or the shared distribution system. This avoids changing equipment inside a flat when the real issue is an upstream switch, shared dish or unidentified cable run.
