What is DTH?

DTH is an acronym for ‘Direct to Home’ service. It is path-breaking in terms of broadcasting of satellite channels on our televisions. Currently, cable operators are providing analog signals to us. In effect, a viewer gets to watch fewer channels and lesser quality.

In a digital set up, the signal receptivity is clear and all the channels have the same reception quality. Also as both the signals are received at the same time, there are no issues with the synchronization of sound with video.

In DTH the customer will receive broadcasting signals directly from the satellite on his set top box (STB); so that automatically means fewer disturbances. The pictures broadcasted are of superior quality and carry crystal clear sound.

Another big advantage is that the viewer can opt to watch programs of their choice with a wide range of channels and packages available. The package can be totally customized based on the choice of the viewer. DTH enables the customer to select and pay for only what he wants, unlike a single package provided by cable operators.

There are only handful cable operators who have an organized set up and are large enough to be able to switch from analog signals. It is practically impossible for other cable operators to provide digital signals because of the cost involved. Even if they provide the Set Top Box, they cannot match the bandwidth by the organized sector.
