HughesNet Standard Residential Installation

Standard Installation includes:

  • The HughesNet satellite modem (Indoor Unit or IDU) with power supply – connected to your computer with a HughesNet-supplied LAN cable.

  • A HughesNet satellite antenna (dish), radio, and mount. The antenna will be located:

    • With a clear line of sight to the southern sky.

    • At least 5 feet off the ground so that it is out of reach of small children.

  • Up to 125 feet of RG6 Dual Coaxial Cable

    • Run outside from the antenna to the HughesNet modem.

    • Through a single exterior wall penetration to an adjacent interior wall.

    • Terminated on the inside wall with a two-connector faceplate.
