Integrated Reception Systems (IRS)
What is an IRS?
An Integrated Reception Systems (IRS) allows you to deliver multiple signals from an array of antennas, a typical system would include a TV aerial, FM, DAB aerials and, Satellite antenna which is then distributed normally via coaxial cabled to multiple viewing points, or a residents accommodation.
An IRS digital system collects the broadcast signals from digital terrestrial (Freeview) and satellite transmitters, as well as FM radio and Digital Audio Broadcasts (DAB). All of these signals are then distributed to a 3 outlet plate within the properties, which is screened from electrical interference and which delivers all available TV channels, including both analogue and digital terrestrial (Freeview), and digital satellite Sky/SkyQ & Freesat to the resident.
Installing IRS means that residents have the option to either connect their TV equipment to pick up the existing free-to-air digital satellite or digital terrestrial television. This solution means that a resident does not have to favour any one particular supplier of TV programming.
With specific exceptions, most communal dwelling buildings are served with integrated reception systems. This means that one system supplies a number of TV services such as Freeview, DAB & FM Radio, Sky+HD, SkyQ, and foreign satellite services to all dwellings. They vary in size and performance depending upon system specifications. This type of installation is typically suited to Social Housing, Local Authorities, Private Landlords, and Commercial builders.
