The Tele System 85 cm is a stable, high-gain offset satellite dish designed for digital satellite television reception. Its generous reflector area provides a useful signal reserve, making it particularly suitable for locations with weaker satellite signals or for receiving satellites with lower signal strength at the installation site.
The reflector measures 880 × 880 mm externally and provides gain of up to 39.5 dB at 12.75 GHz. Its narrow beamwidth helps separate nearby satellite positions when the dish is installed correctly and aligned accurately.
The dish can be combined with a Single, Twin or Quad LNB depending on the number of receivers or tuners required. It can also be expanded with a compatible multi-feed bracket for reception from several satellite positions using the same reflector.
Its robust construction includes a galvanised steel AZ/EL mount, an aluminium LNB arm and an LNB holder compatible with 23 or 40 mm feed diameters. The mast clamp is suitable for poles measuring 32–76 mm in diameter.

🛰️ Multi-Satellite Reception
The dish can be expanded with a compatible multi-feed kit for receiving several satellite positions using the same reflector. Under suitable reception conditions, the system may be configured for up to four orbital positions separated by approximately 6°.
Examples of common satellite combinations include:
- Astra 19.2° East and Hot Bird 13° East
- Thor 0.8° West and Astra 4.8° East
- Other compatible satellite positions with suitable orbital separation
Compatible combinations depend on geographical location, satellite footprint, the selected LNB arrangement and accurate alignment.
👥 Choosing the Correct LNB
The number of receivers or tuners that can be connected depends on the installed LNB:
- Single LNB: One receiver or tuner
- Twin LNB: Two independent receivers or tuners
- Quad LNB: Up to four independent receivers or tuners
- Quattro LNB: Used together with an external multiswitch
Please note: Quad and Quattro LNBs perform different functions. A Quattro LNB is designed for a multiswitch and should not be connected directly to four conventional receivers.
🎯 Ideal For
- Houses and townhouses
- Holiday homes and permanent residences
- Locations with weaker satellite signals
- Reception of Astra, Hot Bird, Thor and other Ku-band satellites
- Installations with one or several satellite receivers
- Twin-tuner receivers
- Multi-feed installations
- Permanent mast and wall installations
- Customers seeking improved bad-weather signal reserve
🔧 Installation
Install the dish on a stable mast or suitable wall bracket. The mast clamp accommodates poles measuring 32–76 mm in diameter.
After installation, adjust the reflector to the correct azimuth and elevation for the required satellite. The elevation adjustment range is 5–45°. Precise alignment using a satellite meter is recommended for optimum reception.
Install a compatible LNB with a 23 or 40 mm feed diameter and connect it to the receiver using suitable 75-ohm coaxial cable.
