Commercial installers: share your H26K success stories

Satellite TV for business is alive and well. Why? Of course it’s because satellite TV is a great value that doesn’t suck up your company’s expensive internet plan. There’s another reason, too: most streaming apps can’t be used in a business environment. Anyone with even a little understanding of the internet will realize that they’ll find your location if you try to stream at your business.

But, then again, why would you? DIRECTV has nationwide exclusive sports that brings people in the door and keeps them there. No matter what your employees like, no matter what politics they follow, they’ll find something to watch on DIRECTV.

And, of course, DIRECTV is even better because of the new H26K Commercial Receiver. It adds 4K, a built-in RF remote with no external antenna, tons more reliability and even better power management. Customers all over the country are getting the message and starting to ask for it by name.

Have you installed one yet?​


Of course this article is targeted at you, the professional installer. You’re the one who has been dealing with supporting older H24s and H25s for years. Have you done your first H26K yet? If not, here are some things to look forward to:

  • The H26K works better with a SWM-30 multiswitch. You can only get 13 H25s on one leg of a SWM, but you can get 15 on one leg if they’re all H26Ks.
  • H26K supports infrared and RF remotes at the same time, with no external antenna. This makes rack mounting a lot easier.
  • Screen saver problems and power saving mode problems are a thing of the past.
  • With support for HDCP 2.2, you can program matrix switches to support 4K output.
  • Mounting is easy and flexible with built in keyhole slots as well as slits for zip ties and a wide broad surface that supports industrial Velcro®.

Chances are, you already knew that. If you work for DIRECTV you probably did a training module on the H26K that told you all about it. But if you’re an independent, you might still be learning about this all-new receiver.
