AUTOMOTIVE AND COMMUNICATION SOLUTIONS

Satellite antenna systems.

The intelligent way to receive more programmes

Within only a few years, the commercial ASTRA and EUTELSAT satellites have been able to go a long way to meet subscribers‘ requirements to receive even more TV and radio programmes.
From the outset, our satellite dishes found a ready market and achieved a leading market position. Today, millions of people take it for granted that they are able to receive analogue or digital satellite TV, last but not least due to the reliability, the quality and the ease of use our products provide.
We offer a complete line of innovative satellite technology for:

 * Professional solutions
 * Individual and community reception systems for private customers
 * High quality reception for mobile use (camping and caravaning)

The efficiency of our SAT products - whether parabols or planar antennas, or electrical components, distribution systems, analogue or digital receivers - have time and again completely convinced our customers, retailers and independent test persons. Kathrein products regularly come out first in product tests, especially in the category covering the price / performance ratio.

Our motto "Quality leads the way" has proved to be extremely successful, especially in this high growth market.
We are the global market leader in the field of satellite reception technology, and will do our utmost to remain ahead of the market competition.

Autotec have four Kathrein satellite antenna systems available supplied and fitted by our professional staff. Please check out these below and call us we will be happy to advise you on the best system to suite your needs for use at home or travelling overseas. 
Fully Automatic Satellite Antenna Systems

Kathrein CAP 910

Description

Kathrein’s latest automatic satellite TV system comes with a High-Definition receiver and is, without any doubt, the most sophisticated model of its kind available. Using GPS technology to position the dish and adjust the L.N.B., its speed and precision are unrivalled. This extreme accuracy gives the CAP 910 a performance equivalent to other systems with considerably bigger dishes.

A twin L.N.B. is standard enabling a SKY receiver to be easily connected (although Sky+ features are not supported) and the CAP 910 comes with its own sophisticated, fully featured receiver which enables reception of dozens of different satellites and up to 4,000 channels. A common access slot is provided so that subscription cards (not SKY cards) can also be used. This receiver also acts as the system’s controller, saving space and ensuring a neat and tidy installation. The receiver is simple to use via the on-screen display and even a first-time user should be able to use the system within minutes of installation.

This system is complete and, after installation, ready to go. It only requires an additional receiver if you wish to receive subscription channels from Sky or another broadcaster. All BBC, ITV and Channel 4 channels as well as Channel 5 - along with hundreds of other English language ones and thousands of foreign channels - can all be received without any additional cost.
In addition, there’s a USB port for recording to an external hard drive or memory stick.

The High-Definition capability of the receiver means that, when it’s connected to an H.D. TV, programmes being shown in H.D. will be seen as they are intended by the programme makers. Even on small screen TVs, picture quality can be stunning!
