Why Sky's Shared Dish

Sky's shared Dish is the easy, discreet way to bring Sky entertainment to your residents. Installation is free when just 4 residents register for Sky TV (subject to survey). And best of all, there's no need for individual mini dishes.

Just register your building and we'll take it all from there. We'll contact the residents in your block and as soon as 4 of them register for Sky TV we'll do a free, no obligation survey to help determine if a Shared Dish is right for your block.

Because we know how busy you are, we'll do everything we can to make things as simple as possible for you.

Right Solution

Because different flats have different needs there are two ways we can bring Sky TV to your flats. The Sky Shared Dish team will help you find the right solution for you.

• Shared Dish This is suitable for most blocks that have up to 48 flats and are up to 3 storeys high. It allows us to offer Sky to each flat that registers for Sky TV.



• Integrated Reception system (IRS) This is ideal when you want to offer all your residents complete digital TV choice. It involves pre-wiring every flat in your block for digital TV.

How others have benefited

As in the case in many other blocks, demand for Sky TV is high among residents. But in the absence of a communal TV system, some residents decide to put up their own minidishes so they could receive it.

The objective was to meet all resident's demands for Sky TV and provided the option to get Sky TV if they wanted it without the need to put up individual minidishes.

With a specialist Sky installer it was arranged for all 7 blocks to get Sky Shared Dish. No fewer than 28 residents have now subscribed to Sky TV, and existing Sky TV customers are continuing to receive all of Sky's great benefits via the communal system. Now residents can decide if they like to take Sky+ and Sky+HD through a single shared satellite dish.
