This is the third Genie Server model to be released by DIRECTV and it's the best yet! This is the model that will work with 4K UHD broadcasts when DIRECTV starts to send them via satellite. This model includes a SWM power inserter, reducing the mess behind your TV. It's also faster than older models and has a simplified motherboard. This unit lacks the component and composite outputs but can display that with appropriate breakout cables from its AV port. NOTE: "If you encounter any service issues such as crackling/flickering/Intermittent Loss of Picture on the TV, we advise to contact your service provider immediately so the service provider can reset Satellite receiver codes for the receiver and Trouble shoot the Configuration Errors if any. If you need any further assistance you can contact our 24/7 support team and we will be glad to assist".
