About Digital Video Broadcasting – Satellite (DVB-S/S2)

Digital Video Broadcast Satellite (DVB-S) is the standard used for direct broadcast satellite services in many parts of Europe and around the world. DVB-S delivers excellent picture and sound quality thanks to high bandwidth and modern video compression methods. DVB-S2 is an enhanced version with a larger data stream, and it is commonly used as a platform to deliver HDTV via satellite. Viewing encrypted content (or Pay TV) requires a subscription and smartcard, and your satellite provider must allow access to encrypted content using a CAM (conditional access module). Please contact your provider for more info about supported CAMs.

The availability of DVB-S/S2 reception and free-to-view (unencrypted) programming varies by country, and even city to city.
