Others & Us

The Difference You Can See

No box behind the TV means no clutter in the room. Here's what a guest room looks like with other providers versus us.

Legacy guest-room TV with an external receiver, tangled cables and multiple remotes
Others

A box behind every TV

An external receiver, a tangle of cables and a second remote in every room — more to break, more to maintain, more for guests to unplug.

Receiver-free guest-room TV with a single clean coax connection to the wall plate
Us

One clean connection

No box, no extra remote, nothing on display. HD channels arrive over a single wire to the wall — the same TV the guest already knows how to use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Box-Free TV systems.

Box-Free TV means that there is no set-top box, receiver, or extra hardware installed behind the television in the guest room. All high-definition channels are delivered securely from a central headend server located in your property's IT room directly to the TV.
Most modern commercial hospitality TVs are fully compatible. Specifically, displays that support Pro:Idiom digital rights management (DRM) are ideal for receiving secure, high-definition content without the need for an external receiver.
No. In the majority of deployments, both the DISH Smartbox 2 and the DIRECTV COM3000 systems can utilize your property's existing coax wiring infrastructure, making the upgrade process incredibly fast, clean, and cost-effective.
Troubleshooting is drastically simplified. Because there are no external boxes or secondary remotes to configure, if a screen is damaged, your maintenance team simply replaces the TV. The central system continues delivering the signal seamlessly.
