I suspect not.

No coax available.

Out building on a large estate. Ethernet is present (fiber from the house), but too far away to run coax from the main house where the dish is.

Might be able to talk the customer into installing another dish on the out building, but I know he would prefer not to.

Currently only has Roku in the out building.

Ip based video distribution. Problem solved

I currently have my Dish Hopper attached to my router via the built-in wifi of the Hopper 3. And the Joey 2.0 wired up to the router via cat5/6/7, idk which at the moment. And it's working perfectly, has been for over a month.

So I don't see any reason why DirecTV can't do the same, unless they disabled that ability.

I just plugged in the CAT5, power and let it do it's thing automatically. Of course when the Dish tech came in, they installed the coax and I just moved the TV and Joey 2.0 to where I wanted it after they left.

I am looking into this, but because of the fiber topology throughout the complex, this may not be possible. So... not sure about IP (like JAP).

In the meantime, I'd like to try to verify if a Genie client can be solely run over IP.

I don't think they have Ethernet ports like the dish joeys, so I don't think it's possible. But the tvs with RVU built in can run only on Ethernet.

You could swap it to dish. I really like my hopper 3 system and the elan IP control works great.

Apple TV 4, download the DirecTV Now app, login and you're done.

fiber to ethernet converter...RVU.

or fiber to ethernet for JAP.

or a solution like this?

Blonder Tongue would be a great source to contact if you need to convert fiber over to coax...

honestly in the end though i think JAP into a fiber to copper network adapter would be cheapest and easiest. RVU would obviously be cheapest but i have found that the sony RVU clients are slow to respond.

Look at video storm. Runs on standard unmanaged switchs
I've ran video while going thru 5 different switchs to get from point a to point b

Sony xbr have dtv tuners built in and work very well. As long as the tv can see the genie on the network it's super easy.

Directv has a Wireless genie mini 4K. Add a Directv wireless video bridge and done.

Those are VERY distance limited

He didn't give a distance. I've seen 100'

I've seen fifty feet work sporadically, given it's an out building I'm going to guess it's over a hundred feet and has at least two exterior walls to penetrate.
Either way I wouldn't even bother with it as its trying to connect two buildings

The out buildings already have fiber to copper convertors, as well as the main house. Unfortunately the head end for the fiber is in the middle out building, which back feeds the WAN feed to the house. Kind of a wonky topology. I bringing a fiber expert on board tomorrow morning to help me sort out my options. Currently there are functioning Ethernet switches in bout out buildings.

The way JAP topology is, you can feed one main Luxul (or Cisco) switch to another, but it needs to be a dedicated line (according to JAP TS) bridging the 2. And I'm not certain I have that in the fiber that has been pulled.

I'll know more tomorrow .

JAP would be my preference, because then all sources in the main house would be available in all the out buildings...if the fiber topology is the way I hope it is.

He does have an AppleTV (gen 1) in the rack, and a Roku too (not sure which gen Roku).

If I can't do JAP easily, I could certainly install a Roku and Apple TV as local sources at each of the outbuildings and use the ATV as a DTV client.
