Residence Hall TV & Streaming Solutions
Deliver campus television and streaming to university residence halls, student housing, and common areas through infrastructure designed around your buildings.
University TV Service Designed for Residence Halls
University Video Services combines campus TV infrastructure, DIRECTV® programming, installation, monitoring, and support in one institutional solution.
No Set-Top Box in Every Room
Compatible campus configurations can distribute programming without installing and managing a separate receiver in each residence hall room.
Existing Coax or IP Infrastructure
UVS can design service around supported RG6 coaxial RF, home-run or daisy-chain cabling, and compatible IP infrastructure.
Residence Rooms & Common Areas
Plan television availability around student rooms, lounges, shared spaces, and other appropriate campus viewing locations.
New and Existing Buildings
UVS installs television infrastructure for new construction and can assess existing residence hall systems for an appropriate upgrade path.
Campus Streaming Options
Pair campus television with HBO Max for participating universities when it fits the institution's requirements.
Monitoring & Technical Support
UVS provides ongoing monitoring and technical support after the residence hall television system goes live.
DIRECTV® Campus TV Without Per-Room Receiver Management
UVS is an authorized DIRECTV® dealer serving colleges and universities. The system is planned for institutional distribution rather than a collection of individual residential subscriptions.

- Sports, news, entertainment, and specialty programming
- Compatible RF or IP distribution options
- Installation planned to minimize disruption to existing service
- Optional HBO Max access for participating institutions
From Residence Hall Assessment to Ongoing Support
Every university has different buildings, cabling, channel requirements, and project constraints. UVS starts with the campus rather than a one-size-fits-all package.
Review Campus Housing
Discuss buildings, rooms, common areas, existing infrastructure, programming needs, and project timing.
Design the System
Determine an appropriate DIRECTV®, RF, IP, and streaming configuration for the institution.
Install & Activate
Coordinate installation and activation with attention to existing campus operations and service continuity.
Monitor & Support
Continue with system monitoring and technical support after launch.
Discuss Your Residence Hall TV Requirements
UVS works with US colleges and universities. Service design, availability, lineup, installation requirements, and pricing depend on the institution and project scope.
Share your residence hall count, approximate room or unit count, current provider, infrastructure, and desired timing. The UVS team can review the project and prepare a custom proposal.
