Cable Antenna Television(CATV)

CATV:
Ø CATV (originally "community antenna television," now often "community access television") is
    more commonly known as "cable TV."
Ø In addition to bringing television programs to those millions of people throughout the world who
    are connected to a community antenna, cable is an increasingly popular way to interact with the 
   World Wide Web and other new forms of multimedia information and entertainment services.
Ø Cable television is a system of delivering television programming to paying subscribers via radio
    frequency (RF) signals transmitted through coaxial cables or light pulses through fiber-optic
    cables.
Ø This contrasts with broadcast television, in which the television signal is transmitted over the air by
    radio waves and received by a television antenna attached to the television.
Ø FM radio programming, high-speed Internet, telephone service, and similar non-television services
   may also be provided through these cables.
