 More Info on Cable Box
Cable television or Community Antenna Television (CATV) (and often shortened to 'cable') is a system of providing television, FM radio programming and other services to consumers through fixed coaxial cables, rather than by the older and more widespread radio broadcasting (over-the-air) method.
Technically, both cable TV and CATV involve distributing a number of television channels collected at a central location (called a head end or headend) to subscribers within a community by means of a network of optical fibers and/or coaxial cables and broadband amplifiers.
Cable companies have recently expanded their service to provide broadband internet services through their cables, using cable modems, as opposed to ADSL through the telephone cable.

 [SpamCop-List] Re: Cable TV Descramblers - Industry reporting address ?
When cable companies only had a few premium channels, they would shift the channel slightly and add a strong beeping signal where the TV normally would find the audio signal.
Most cable companies try to prevent this theft of service by inserting notch filters that prevent the signal from even reaching the house, so unless the someone has tampered with the external cable feed point, the descrambler still will not work.
Some cable companies also conduct inspections to make sure that their connections have not been tampered with.

Companies that offer convenience to consumers seem to be the early winners, such as florists, videos, tourism services, and computer software.
Since ASN does not qualify as a "television station" for the purposes of section 20 of the Cable Television Regulations, 1986, simultaneous substitution is not practised by the cable undertakings that distribute ASN.
The licensee argued, however, that allowing cable licensees to do so by condition of licence would ensure that viewers are not lost to foreign signals in general, and that tuning to ASN in particular would increase.
