Our Starlink installation SMEs kick-off the processing of the service request by performing the following:
An initial offsite assessment was conducted to gather the customer’s requirements for the Starlink installation in South Bend, IN. Following this, our team performed an onsite technical survey to:
🔹Confirm the optimal installation point for the Starlink dish using the results of the obstruction test.
🔹Identify existing low-voltage cable pathways or if none are available, coordinate with the customer’s point of contact to determine the most suitable cable entry point into the building and the internal cable termination location.
🔹Verify any additional parts or materials required to complete the installation.
After the site survey, our Starlink installation subject matter experts (SMEs) prepared and submitted a detailed installation proposal for customer review and approval. Once approved and the necessary equipment was ready, the installation schedule was then coordinated with our Starlink installers in South Bend, IN.
Our professional Starlink installers arrived onsite and began the installation by mounting the Starlink dish using a non-penetrating roof mount with pipe adapter mount and weighted with cinder blocks. The dish was positioned in a location identified as having a “Good” rating during the Starlink obstruction test.
The installation team neatly routed the Starlink cable, securing it with cable clips, from the satellite dish to a designated wall entry point. They then extended the cable along the indoor ceiling to the IT room, where the power supply unit (PSU) and Cradlepoint device were installed. The team connected the Starlink cable to the PSU and used an Ethernet cable to link the PSU to the WAN interface of the Cradlepoint device.
The team activated and configured the Cradlepoint device following the provided guidelines. They then conducted a speed test against the minimum required threshold of 40 Mbps download and 8 Mbps upload. The test produced impressive results, reaching 121 Mbps download and 39 Mbps upload.
After installing the equipment, the team performed a Starlink alignment test to position the dish with a clear line of sight to the satellite network. This alignment test is an essential step to ensure uninterrupted connectivity and strong signal reception for the Starlink dish.
The final stage of the installation is conducting a Starlink speed test, key performance metrics includes download speed, upload speed and latency. This Starlink connection is operating at a high-performance level, combining strong download speed with remarkably low latency for satellite broadband. It is capable handling high bandwidth-intensive tasks and business applications.
It’s important to note that Starlink may require up to 12 hours to fully optimize its connection. During this initial period, temporary speed fluctuations or brief dropouts may occur. However, once the system stabilizes, it delivers a reliable and high-speed internet connection.
