Unknown cables in multi-unit buildings
Unlabelled runs make it difficult to see which dish, switch or unit is affected.
Looking for a DSTV installer in Hartenbos? Kids want cartoons, you want the rugby. With Extra View, two decoders share one subscription so different rooms can watch different channels. We set up the LNB, cabling and decoder linking for you.
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.
Plan. We plan cable routes to each room and check your current LNB.
Upgrade. Fit a suitable LNB if needed so each decoder gets its own feed.
Cable. Run neat cabling to every TV point.
Link. Connect and set up decoders so Extra View works properly.
Unlabelled runs make it difficult to see which dish, switch or unit is affected.
Ordinary television splitters can cause missing channels or unreliable decoder communication.
Changes to decoders or room layouts can interrupt communication between linked viewing points.
We cover Hartenbos, Hartenbos Heuwels, Menkenkop, Voorbaai and surrounds.
