MUMBAI: Even as the government is assimilating views of the various
industry stakeholders on how to roll out conditional access system
(CAS) smoothly, multi-system operators (MSOs) are busy plotting
expansion of their digital cable TV service.
Hathway Cable & Datacom today announced the launch of its digital
cable in Hyderabad. The MSO has already rolled out its digital services
in Chennai, Mumbai, New Delhi, Pune and Bangalore.
Digital cable TV services are offered to the customer through a
remote controlled digital device, which will be accompanied by a
fully functional sleek smart card.
"The advantages of the digital set-top boxes (STBs) is that the
consumer does not have to pay extra money in their monthly cable TV
bill but in turn can enjoy over 150 digital channels. The device costs
over Rs. 2500," Hathway said in a release. |
