The document discusses the growth of satellite TV access in apartment and condominium communities. Regulatory changes in 1992 and 2007 opened up the market by moving wire ownership to property owners and ending cable company monopolies. Technological advances now allow a single satellite dish to provide TV services to an entire building through its wiring system. This "perfect storm" of regulatory and technology changes provides residents with more choice for premium TV services like DIRECTV.
2. The Perfect Storm
Satellite TV is not widely used in apartment & condominium communities,
primarily as there have been limitations both regulatory as well as
technically.
In 1992 Congress enacted the Inside Wire Ruling. This ruling moves the
ownership of the wire from the franchise cable provider to the real estate
owner.
Next, only six years ago, in 2007, the FCC declared that the exclusive
clauses in franchised cable operator agreements were no longer
enforceable; no more could the cable companies hold a monopoly over
the property owners.

assembly to serve an entire building. Coupled with DIRECTV® developed
technology, DSI-TV is able to distribute all five DIRECTV® satellites on a
single wire. This eliminates the use of a personal satellite dish per
balcony and the need to have exposed coax cable running in and across
the floor of each user. The Central Dish signal is integrated into the
existing prewired infrastructure of the property thereby allowing the use
of DIRECTV® signals at all “cable TV outlet locations”. DSI-TV is able to
offer DIRECTV®, Cable TV or both. For the first time, the resident gets
choice – Cable TV or an upgrade to DIRECTV®.
