Cable television
What is "cable television"?
Cable television is a system that delivers television programming to viewers through special cables. It provides access to a variety of channels, including news, entertainment, sports, and other types of content, often with options for premium channels or on-demand services. Subscribers typically pay a monthly fee for access to these services, and cable TV systems are usually connected to the home via a cable box or digital receiver. Cable television is commonly used in urban and suburban areas and offers more channel variety than traditional over-the-air broadcasting.
Examples
Cable television offers subscribers access to hundreds of channels, including premium and specialty networks.
