A central system is much easier to manage and maintain. Our systems can be managed remotely, which reduces the need for frequent on-site technician visits. Additionally, since the system is centralized, troubleshooting is simpler and more efficient, focusing on one main system rather than multiple individual cable boxes behind each TV. This streamlined approach saves time and resources for the facility.
Yes, our centralized DirecTV systems offer the option for HD picture quality. Customers can choose resolutions from as low as 480p up to 4K, depending on the capabilities of the TVs they have on-site.
Cable TV providers deliver television services through a network of coaxial or fiber-optic cables that connect directly to data centers. Each facility is connected through a physical cable line, which ensures a stable connection for the delivery of TV channels. On the other hand, satellite TV relies on a dish installed on the roof or wall of a facility. This dish wirelessly receives signals from an orbiting satellite, which then transmits TV channels directly to the location. Unlike cable, satellite does not require a physical connection to a data center; instead, it depends on a clear line of sight to the satellite in the sky.

These channels cover a wide range of content, including news, entertainment, sports, and more. (DirecTV)
Satellite TV does not rely on a physical connection, which reduces the margin for error and potential service disruptions. Satellite systems are typically centralized within a facility, meaning there are no individual cable boxes behind each TV. This reduces maintenance needs, as cable boxes can often break or be tampered with by residents or guests. With a satellite system, the entire setup is housed in your main equipment (MVF) closet, and each TV is connected directly to the centralized system, streamlining management and ensuring greater reliability across the facility.
Satellite systems are centralized, so instead of paying for individual cable boxes for each TV in the facility, you’re paying for a single central system. This setup reduces equipment costs, and programming expenses per unit are generally lower, making satellite a more cost-effective option overall.
