The Kathrein CAS 06 is a premium compact offset satellite dish designed for users who require stable reception, long service life and a robust installation. Its efficient reflector delivers excellent signal strength in a convenient format and is ideal for receiving popular European satellite positions.
The reflector is manufactured from powder-coated aluminium. The feed-system support arm is made from galvanised, plastic-coated sheet steel, while the mast bracket is manufactured from hot-dip galvanised sheet steel. The construction is designed for long-term outdoor use and good resistance to weather and corrosion.
Thanks to its offset design, the CAS 06 provides excellent electrical performance in relation to its compact dimensions. The antenna offers a maximum gain of 35.9 dBi and can be installed on masts with a diameter of 38–60 mm.
With a suitable multifeed holder and compatible feed systems, the dish can be used for reception from satellite positions such as Astra 19.2° East and Eutelsat Hot Bird 13° East.
The Kathrein CAS 06 is available in white or graphite grey, allowing the antenna to complement the building, roof and installation environment.
The LNB and LNB holder are not included and must be purchased separately.

📡 Multifeed Reception
With a suitable multifeed holder and compatible feed systems, the Kathrein CAS 06 can be used to receive signals from multiple satellite positions.
The specified system figures include feed-system positions:
- At the centre of the reflector
- At approximately 6° spacing
- At approximately 9° spacing
This makes the antenna suitable for receiving signals from positions such as Astra 19.2° East or Eutelsat Hot Bird 13° East, separately or together with the correct multifeed equipment.
Exact compatibility depends on the installation location, required satellite positions and the selected LNB units, holders and feed systems.
🔧 Installation
The Kathrein CAS 06 is installed on a stable, vertically aligned mast or a compatible wall bracket. The mast diameter must be within the specified clamp range of 38–60 mm.
After installation, the antenna is carefully aligned in azimuth and elevation towards the required satellite. Elevation can be adjusted between 5 and 45 degrees, while azimuth can be adjusted through 360 degrees.
Use a satellite signal meter for accurate final alignment. The mast, wall bracket and fixings must be rated for the antenna’s weight and specified wind load.
Professional installation is recommended for optimum reception and safety.
