Why is Cox Digital Cables HDTV better than satellite?
We offer high-definition programming from local networks such as NBC, ABC, NETV etc. Satellite providers send one set of signals to all of their customers across the nation. This is a drawback because they can only carry so many signals due to bandwidth limitations. In order to watch local network affiliates like NBC, ABC etc., some satellite customers may have to switch from their dish to an antenna, or otherwise watch the network broadcasts from a different region. With Cox, there are no hassles with switching between antenna and satellite. We have the advantage of local operations, which allow us the bandwidth to carry the local HDTV network broadcasts available in our area. As a HDTV cable subscriber, all of your programming (HDTV signals and standard digital) will be “piped” directly to your television via your cable connection.
