starlink – Internet from Space

Starlink provides high speed broadband Internet via satellite rather than a copper wire or fibre connection. Because Starlink satellites are in a low orbit of about 550km, latency (data speed) is significantly lower than other providers making it possible to support streaming, online gaming and video calls.

The Basic Starlink Kit, consisting of a dish, a base, a router and interconnecting and power cables, is purchased directly from Starlink (www.starlink.com). 

The base that comes in the Starlink Basic Kit is designed for ground level installation and because Starlink requires a clear view of the sky, many customers find a permanent roof mount gives the best result. The router has no Ethernet connection, so an Ethernet Adaptor is usually required.

A range of wall and roof mounts are available, as are cable routing kits, and longer interconnect cables, all allowing for a reliable hard-wired connection.

The Television Installation Co. can provide all the additional bits required, professionally roof-mount your dish and ensure you have optimum Wi-Fi coverage throughout your whole home.
