Are you ready to cut the cord? If you're looking for a way to watch your favorite shows without paying through the nose for cable, look no further than a set-top box! A set-top box is a device that allows a digital signal to be received, decoded and displayed on a television. The signal can be a television signal or Internet data and is received via cable or telephone. In the form of cable and satellite television, the past brings us to the present.

The numerous channels were generally transmitted to an auxiliary channel on television. Other features included a decoder for pay-per-view and premium channels.
