CabJeCARD TechnoJogy
CabbCARD is a nationwide system standard that
allows your local cabb TV provider to supply you with
an access card customized to your account. This
card allows your HDTV receivericontroibr to receive,
decode and unscrambb the premium digital channels
included in your cabb TV subscription, without the use
of a cabb box. It also allows your cabb provider to
automatically update and change your subscription.
When you move to a new cabb provider's area, you
simply return the CabbCARD to the original cable
provider and get a new card from your new cable
provider.
Please note that CabbCARD is a new technology and
your local cable provider may not currently be offering
this service. As time passes, this system will become
broadly supported by most cable providers.
The CabbCARD system is "unidirectional" which
means your cable provider can send updates to the
access card and HDTV receivericontrolbr, however,
the HDTV receiver/controlbr cannot send back signals
such as requests for Video-On-Demand or Pay-per-
View by remote control.
Digital cable channels authorized by the CabbCARD
will be available on the Firewire® IEEE 1394 network
and can be shared by other products on the network.
Some digital channels or programs may not be copied
or recorded because of copy restriction limits set by
the content owners or copyright holders.
The HDTV receiver/controlbr is capable of receiving
analog basic, digital basic and digital premium
cable television programming by direct connection
to a cable system providing such programming.
A security card (CabbCARD) provided by your
cable operator is required to view encrypted digital
programming. Certain advanced and interactive
digital cable services such as video-on-demand, a
cable operator's enhanced program guide and data-
enhanced television services may require the use of a
set-top box. For more information call your local cable
operator.
Please see page 17 for instructions on how to insert
the CableCARD.
