Requirements and technical specifications of a cable TV hybrid set-top box compatible with terrestrial and satellite TV transport
Recommendation ITU-T J.298 describes the requirements and technical specifications of a cable TV hybrid set-top box compatible with terrestrial and satellite TV transport. The main purpose of the Recommendation is to specify minimum and basic requirements for a hybrid set-top box (STB), which meets the requirements of all countries and regions. The hybrid set-top box has full functionalities for traditional cable broadcasting services based on Recommendation ITU-T J.83; at the same time, satellite or terrestrial broadcast receiving functions will also be implemented so that the STB is able to receive satellite or terrestrial broadcasting services. The basic functionalities for IP-based interactive video services are also required so that the STB is able to support the latest Internet protocol (IP) interactive services together with legacy cable and satellite/terrestrial services.
