When Sky Q was announced I checked with Sky whether my flat with only a single cable feed could receive Sky Q - I was told that it would not be possible - my enquiries in trying to get my flats upgraded to have two cable feeds were fruitless and there is no room for a stacker destacker.
I learned this week that at last I can get fibre broadband in my flat - this lead me look at possibly moving to BT TV - anyway after a long circular bit of web searching I learned new things for me regarding Sky Q installation in MDUs (multiple dwelling units).
Sky can come out to assess the satellite equipment in a block of flats - they can upgrade the multiswitch to a dSCR (digital single cable router) switch, which basically means that all the info required for Sky Q can travel along a single cable - they may carry out the upgrade for free, or ask for the flat residents to meet some of the cost - probably depends on how many Sky subscribers live in the flats.
Or, if it turns out to be too expensive to upgrade the multiswitch, then Sky can install, free of charge, a plug in adapter, that will serve just a single flat for each adapter and that will send all the required Sky Q info down a single cable - Sky just need access to the satellite equipment. As far as I can tell this is available from the end of August 2017.
Has anyone had experience with a dSCR upgrade? Or are they awaiting the installation of a plug in adapter?
