mmds

what is the difference between n-l mmds and c-or-s mmds.i know the second one works on mmds ariel,but does the first one work on mmds cable with a convertor. jhaye2x

 

NTHell MMDS broadcasts using Cable frequencies through the MMDS aerial. This allows a Box with a cable tuner (The Box, Eurovox etc.) to be used for Cable/MMDS NTHell & Chor*s Cable.
Chor*s MMDS broadcasts on Terrestrial Frequencies & therefore requires a Box with a Terrestrial receiver (The Box T or similar).
Hope this helps.

 

cheers newbie,
does the n-l mmds need a down convertor or a powerinsertor or is this just for ch-r-us mmds. this is because i done a box in north dublin and they had ntl cable with a small black box.the cable going in from the n-l box on the wall,+power and a n-l cable going into the back of the s/super box. would this be a convertor box. cheers jaye2x

 

The MMDS aerial on the roof has a downconvertor built in. The power supply for the donwconvertor is the Black Box that you saw in the house. This power supply can sometimes be in the attic too but is always required for MMDS.

 

thanks a lot for getting back newbie,a guy i sold a box to at the weekend rang me late this evening.he said he is on ch=r=s.so he scanned it .0 stations came up. i told him to try n=l,the same result. so i asked him at the time before i was speaking to yourself(newbie)have you got as i thought a down convertor with an ariel where i know now i should have said a power covertor.he said no. he lives in a new apartment. what would you do in this situation cheers jhaye2x

 

What sort of box did you sell him? As MMDS said above you need a box - T for chor*s mmds and a box - C for n*l mmds.

 

jhaye2x,
both broadcast on microwave frequency... MMDS ( microwave miltypoint distrobution system ) N*l mmds broadcast on microwave frequency qam64 and then it is downconverted DVB -C, Cho*us aswell use mmds but is "cofdm" and not qam so you use DVB-t

 

hi, i sold him a super/box c-box.he told me he lives in a new apartment block in dublin.he said he has a ch=r=s box.i asked him is there an ariel or a mast around.he does'nt know. would you think he either needs a t-box or it could be a (power inserter booster box). cheers lads

 

Any idea what part of dublin he is? If he is chor*s cable he needs a box c and needs to scan on symbol rate 6875, if he is chor*s mmds he will need a box t.

 

anybody know would the box t work on mmds north Galway area.. am looking at buying one on ebay at min...

 

Its N** MMDS so any standard DVB C box will do, e.g. Eurovox, Starview, Dbox2, Dreambox, etc, etc.

Find it hard to get them on fleabay although a few are coming back.

 

Thanks scouser...I have a dbox 2 that worked in Dublin on n@@'hell true cable but dont think that would work on mmds in Galway. Think Id need a t turner. is that right

 

No your Dbox2 will work it will need a new service scan thats all. No need for a different tuner as said N** MMDS is DVB C.

 

hey guys do any of ye know where i can get a eurovox tx they seem to be out of stock everywhere ?

thanks guys...

 

I see dvbjunkieuk.com have 12 showing in stock, just about to order one myself, just a bit worried now though that ch***s may make them unusable in the near future, still tying to sift though all the forums/posts to see how soon if at all!!

 

Is the same MMDS aeriel used for both N*L and C**r*s? If not what aeriel do I need for N*L MMDS in Dublin? Thanks and happy new year to everyone.
