Descrambler
Cable television is a system of providing television to consumers via radio frequency signals transmitted to televisions through fixed optical fibers or coaxial cables as opposed to the over-the-air method used in traditional television broadcasting (via radio waves) in which a television antenna is required. FM radio programming, high-speed Internet, telephony, and similar non-television services may also be provided. The abbreviation CATV is often used to mean "Cable TV". It originally stood for Community Antenna Television, from cable television's origins in 1948: in areas where over-the-air reception was limited by distance from transmitters or mountainous terrain, large "community antennas" were constructed, and cable was run from them to individual homes. It is most commonplace in North America, Europe, Australia and East Asia, though it is present in many other countries, mainly in South America and the Middle East. Cable TV has had little success in Africa, as it is not cost-effective to lay cables in sparsely populated areas. So-called "wireless cable" or microwave-based systems are used instead.

If you want to understand the way a descrambler or a cable network works, we are here to explain the simple reason behind the image on your TV set.
In order for you to have crystal clear image on your TV set, a cable network and/or signal from your cable line in the wall is the first necessary thing. Cable TV companies install cable lines
all over cities, running from one neighbourhood to another, from one house to another. All these cables are forming the cable network, through which the TV signal is permanently running.
The fact that a cable has TV signals running through it at all times doesn't necessarily mean that you will have image on your TV channels. Every cable company is protecting its incomes
and profit by using a simple method: scrambling all the TV signals that run through the cable lines. This is the reason why you have image on your TV and your neighbour doesn't see a thing
on his TV set, although you both own the same cable equipment. The cable company has descrambled the TV signal for you, but not for your neighbour. And by installing a descrambler
to your line, this problem is fixed. Every client has a descrambler attached to the TV set, but not all of them are activated. When you pay the cable bill, the cable TV company
is sending information through the cable line that is activating your descrambler. And this is how you get image on your TV.
If you are wondering why a cable company is scrambling the TV signal, well the answer to this question is simple: money. Cable TV companies, as any other company, want to have profit.
They can not have this unless they charge a fee paid by their clients. If they hadn't scrambled the signal running through their cable network, every person would have had image on their TV set without paying a dime.
Therefore, the TV signal is scrambled. So, a Ultralux FX cable descrambler is a device that is transposing the TV signal into image. People use cable descramblers for pay-per-view and premium channels too.
------Cable TV in Brazil - Like Carnival for TV---------
Television in Brazil was introduced in September 18, 1950, with the launch of now-defunct TV Tupi by media mogul Assis Chateaubriand. Since then, it has grown significantly in the country and represents an important factor of the popular culture of contemporary Brazilian society. The digital television was introduced on December 2, 2007, limited to the city of São Paulo.
History
In the 1950s, the Brazilian television had a character of informality, marked by professionals inexperienced with the media, and live impromptu, since there was no videotape. The high price of the TV set, which was imported, restricted the access of the media to the upper class. Technical resources were primary, offering broadcasters just enough to keep the stations on the air.
Digital Television
The SBTVD standard (based on ISDB-T) was adopted and launched in 2 December 2007. In 2007, only greater São Paulo metropolitan area can receive the signal. SBTVD broadcasts started in Belo Horizonte in the beginning of March 2008 and late May 2008 in Rio de Janeiro. Government estimated 7 years for complete signal expansion for all over the territory. The analog television is set to be shut down in 2016, but it can be delayed if needed.
The interactive platform called Ginga[1] consists entirely on free software and received highly publicity being considered the main appeal for the change. The government promised WiMAX as return channel for the system, set to be implanted in the next years[2].
In Brazil all 5 major TV networks (Rede Bandeirantes, Rede Globo, Rede Record, RedeTV! and SBT) and the public televisions (TV Cultura, TV Brasil) started to broadcast HDTV 1080i in December 2007. Brazil uses an upgraded version of the Japanese ISDB-T, which uses H.264/MPEG-4 AVC for video compression and HE-AAC for audio compression. 1seg broadcasts use the same standard as in Japan, except for the frame rate: 15FPS in Japan and 30FPS in Brazil. Other features are the same, including codec, modulation and interactive features. Hardware can be shared between both countries, with only firmware updates to address the encoding difference.

----------------Trinidad & Tobago Cable TV Customers Irate: What's the solution? ------------
The Cable Company of Trinidad and Tobago (CCTT) or the Trinidad & Tobago Trans-Cable Co. Ltd, a division of Intercomm Holdings (Trinidad), is the leading Cable TV and Broadband provider in Trinidad and Tobago. Formed by a combined merger of the local Transcable, Cable View, Rainbow and AJ Cable companies the Cable Company of Trinidad and Tobago competes against DirecTV, TSTT, and several other local Internet Service Providers in Trinidad and Tobago. Phil Cleary a businessman originally from Newfoundland, Canada has been credited as the champion of the current cable company structure and identity. The Broadband offerings provided by CCTT go by the name, FiberLine. The FiberLine network is made-up of a composite high-speed Fiber-optics Internet Backbone scattered over much of the interior parts of Trinidad. With DirecTV not licensed to provide Internet service via Satellite in Trinidad and Tobago, FiberLine is the sole high-speed Internet competitor to TSTT. As the company moves forward, more advanced technology continues to be deployed. During the years of 1999-2000 a series of Scientific Atlanta digital cable boxes were provided to all customers. Once deployed, the Cable Company of Trinidad and Tobago attempted to implement a tiered level of service packages. But the boxes were later returned by many irate customers upset that some of the boxes were randomly scrambling basic cable channels. Following the turn of events, CCTT continued to work with many customers during the transition period from analogue to digital cable. Following that situation, many still complain that the company is known for the occasional outage during International cricket matches, CCTT seemingly draws much ire of the public at large. In 2006, the company was acquired by a Canadian company, and changed its name to Columbus Communications. Flow TV . U-watch. u-watch

Initially, the systems brought American stations to viewers in Canada who had no Canadian stations to watch; broadcast television, though begun late in 1952 in Toronto and Montreal, did not reach a majority of cities until 1954. In time, cable television was widely established to carry available Canadian stations as well as import American stations, which constituted the vast majority of signals on systems (usually only one or two Canadian stations, while some systems had duplicate or even triplicate coverage of American networks). During the 1970s, a growing number of Canadian stations pushed American channels off the systems, forcing several to expand beyond the original 12-channel system configurations. At the same time, the advent of fibre-optic technology enabled companies to extend their systems to nearby towns and villages that by themselves were not viable cable television markets. Many Canadians now receive their television service through some sort of multichannel television platform, such as cable television or satellite television, as opposed to an antenna-based system providing only conventional stations. While the technical details of these platforms differ, the governing Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulations are similar for all providers.

Specialty television channels available only on cable began to be established in 1983, and systems continued to expand and upgrade their channel capacity, notably by deploying fibre-optics to carry signals as far as neighbourhoods before converting to coaxial cable for the final run to the customer premises. The use of Fibre Optic cables as far back as the 1970s does not imply that Cable companies were using digital methods to transmit signals as is sometimes assumed by the modern viewer. This is a common misunderstanding very similar to the misunderstood belief that LaserDisc was a digital format, which it isn't. Methods were developed and deployed as far back as the 1970s to transmit analog video using frequency division multiplexing via fibre-optic cabling. Digital signaling is a much more modern practice which only began in the early 2000s. Two-way capabilities were introduced, and larger systems were able to use "addressable" descramblers to offer pay-TV and different tiers of channels. Cable television began to face serious competition from DTH satellite services in the late 1990s. Telephone companies and cable television companies have since been permitted, in most parts of Canada, to compete to provide services originally provided by the other. Cable television services are not the prime providers of broadband Internet in Canada, but they are a very strong competitor for the service. During the early 1970s, Canadian television stations obtained regulatory rulings that required cable television operators to substitute their signals for distant (usually American) stations carrying the same television program at the same time. This was to protect the stations' advertising sales. Many systems were originally locally owned, and many large cities had several providers each covering specific sections of a city; a long series of consolidations and acquisitions rapidly brought most major cities' systems under the ownership of a small number of large companies. Present day Presently, cable is provided to most cities and towns, depending on the region, by companies such as Rogers Communications, Shaw Communications, Vidéotron, Cogeco, Persona, Cable Axion, Dery Telecom and EastLink. Most of these "first-generation" cable companies do not compete with each other, as the CRTC has traditionally licensed only one cable provider per market. Even in markets where more than one distributor has been licensed, each has an exclusive territory within the market. However, most telephone companies such as Bell Canada, Telus, Aliant, Manitoba Telecom Services (MTS) and SaskTel have recently secured IPTV distribution licences in their own territories, several of which are already in use.
