Installation Example.
A motel in a rural area has an exisiting coaxial cable system distributing TV to every room. The area was previously served by an analogue transmitter, but was switched to satellite during the digital switchover. The motel can either install VAST receivers in every room, and fit a satellite distribution amplifier, or fit a Satellite Transmodulator headend such as this one (provided every room has a MPEG4 Digital TV Fitted)
