DiSEqC (/ˈdaɪsɛk, daɪˈsɛksi/;^{[citation needed]} short for Digital Satellite Equipment Control) is a special communication protocol for use between a satellite receiver and a device such as a multi-dish switch or a small^[1] dish antenna rotor. DiSEqC was developed by European satellite provider Eutelsat, which now acts as the standards agency for the protocol.

^ The maximum dish size that can generally be used with a DiSEqC motor is 1.2m; however, using a V-box as in interface, DiSEqC 1.2 can be used for very large dishes using 36V motors.
