Satellite antenna Fuba DAL 800 R, 10.75–12.75 GHz input, 740×840 mm, red

Fuba DAL 800 R is a rotatable satellite antenna designed for standard Ku-band reception with an input frequency range of 10.75–12.75 GHz. The reflector is constructed from aluminium and finished in red. With physical dimensions of 740×840 mm and a weight of 8 kg, this antenna is intended for domestic or small commercial satellite TV installations where a compact, rotatable dish is required.

Advantages

The aluminium reflector offers a durable, corrosion-resistant surface while keeping the overall weight low. The rotatable design allows precise alignment to a variety of satellite positions without replacing the entire dish. Measured noise figure values (36.8 and 38.5) and a cross-polarisation isolation of 27 dB support reliable signal separation and reception quality in typical Ku-band conditions. The compact dimensions make mounting and handling easier in constrained spaces.

Suitable for

• Home satellite TV installations requiring Ku-band reception
• Small commercial sites such as guesthouses or retail outlets
• Locations where a compact rotatable dish is needed for multiple satellite positions

How to use

Mount the Fuba DAL 800 R on a stable mast or wall bracket capable of supporting its weight and allow clearance for rotation. Point the dish roughly towards the desired satellite position and secure the mounting hardware. Use the rotatable mechanism to fine-tune azimuth and elevation until the received signal quality is maximised. Connect a compatible LNB and coaxial cable to the receiver, observing correct polarity and grounding practices. After final alignment, tighten all fasteners and check signal stability on the receiver.

Usage recommendations

For best reception, install the antenna with a clear line of sight to the satellite, free from obstructions such as trees or buildings. Use weather-resistant mounting hardware and perform periodic checks of fasteners and connections. In areas with strong winds, ensure the mast and brackets are rated for local conditions and consider additional reinforcement. When performing alignment, use an accurate satellite-finding tool or receiver signal meters to achieve optimal results.
