The Series3 HD box can also operate with a single CableCARD, but will be limited to accessing one digital cable channel at a time. You will need to call your cable provider to request CableCARD decoders. Depending on your cable company, CableCARDs may require a small monthly fee, ranging from free to $2 per month. More CableCARD info on our CableCARD page.

 

1 HD requires more storage space than content recorded at lower quality and will deplete your storage capacity at a faster rate.
2 Also compatible with analog cable and over-the-air digital HD (ATSC). Two CableCARD decoders required (available from your cable provider).
