Broadcasting service distribution is the core of our business. Televés began operating in 1958, linked to the birth of television in Spain and the manufacture of antennas, an activity in which we were pioneers. Since then, we have evolved alongside technology development, to become an international leader in the design, development and manufacture of equipment for capturing and distributing radio and television signals. We played a part in milestones such as the leap from black and white to colour, the introduction of private channels and, much more recently, the worldwide implementation of digital terrestrial television (DTT), high definition (HDTV) and television formats of the future.
We have progressively incorporated other products and solutions in complementary areas such as the measurement tools required by professional installers, or solutions related to new audiovisual service distribution technologies. Thus, today our brand is renowned as a guarantee of quality in taking television signals to the very last socket in the home, whether DTT, satellite or IPTV, using coaxial, fibre optic or hybrid solution networks.

Terrestrial Antennas
The antenna is the equipment responsible for picking up the signals that carry radio and television services (DTT) and converting the radio waves into electrical signals for distribution . Therefore, its quality and performance are essential to ensure high quality error free reception.
Devices which mission consists in the reception of electromagnetic signals from the satellite. They consist of a parabolic reflector (passive equipment), a feeder (active equipment known as LNB) to receive the reflected signal, and the mechanical equipment required to position and fix both of them
Equipment for the support of TV reception devices, such as antennas or satellite dishes, with multiple mounting options: on eaves, walls, roofs, floors, windows... There is a variety of models based on the wall anchoring system (mortised, screw-mount...). The surface of these supports has to have an appropriate treatment (galvanizing, sealing...) to ensure a long working life under aggressive environmental conditions.
Televes has been researching and manufacturing small antenna towers for over 30 years. The first 81m-tower of the 600 series was manufactured back in 2001 for wind surveying purposes. New product ranges currently allow to reach 200m in height.
These devices process the television signal (terrestrial and/or satellite) received by the antennas to adapt it to the distribution network and deliver it to the receivers with maximum quality.
Processing headends transform the TVSAT, DTT or IP audiovisual service reception format to adapt it to any user multimedia device (receivers, television sets, tablets, etc.). They are also compatible with coaxial, optical fibre and structured cabling distribution networks.
Set of devices and accessories that allow changing the transmission medium from RF signals to optical fibre and vice versa. This allows TV and SAT signal distribution over large distances without losing signal quality.
Devices that allow signal distribution from one or more satellites to multiple users. The number of multiswitch inputs indicates the number of satellites that can be received, while the number of outputs indicates the number of users that can be connected. The terrestrial signal is usually combined with satellite at the input.
The distribution network (or delivery network) is in charge of delivering the TV signals (terrestrial, satellite, cable...) to the user outlet. It usually consists of passive equipment, and the key parameter is bandwidth (frequency range). This section provides a wide range of devices adapted to work in all bands (VHF, UHF, IF-SAT).
The coaxial system (cables and connectors) is the transmission method used for television signals. The coaxial cable consists of two concentric conductors: the inner conductor(or core) and the outer conductor (or braid), separated by a dielectric (insulator). Televes provides a wide range of coaxial for the professional installer.
This domestic equipment assists completing the domestic TV installation: set top boxes that decode the signal before sending it to the TV, modulators to add an additional channel, audio/video and IR (infrared) senders to extend the number of TV points without new set top boxes, and audio/video leads.
Equipment, tools and kits for measuring or simulating signals, on multiple bands and with different standards, both in radio frequency and in other data transmission media (fiber optics, copper solutions, ...). They allow for a reliable, efficient and professional network analysis, maintenance and certification in telecommunications infrastructures.
