Satellite TV is a wireless service that delivers content through radio signals, broadcast centers, antennas and communication satellites. TV broadcasters send signals to the satellites in space, which then convert these signals into a stream of content and send it back to the satellite dishes on earth. The satellite dish installed at the consumer’s end picks up these signals and then transfers them to the receiver installed inside the house.

With satellite TV you need to install a satellite dish on your roof, plus you have to buy additional equipment if you want to get HD programming and then there is the installation cost involved as well.

• Best for international programming
• Available in remote areas

Cable delivers TV services to consumers through radio signals that are transferred via coaxial cables. Unlike satellite TV, cable TV is not disrupted by weather conditions and usually delivers reliable services. Moreover, you can easily rent the equipment required such as the cable box and TV remote. If cable lines are already there in your area right up to your residence, then you can easily install the equipment yourself too.

Unlike satellite TV, cable TV is available only where the provider infrastructure is present, which means cable coverage may not be available in most rural areas.

• Reliable and rarely gets disrupted
• Comes in varied bundle-options

• Limited channel lineup
• Not available in rural areas

Internet Protocol TV almost always delivers signals through fiber optic cables using infrared light. These fiber optic cables are strands, thin as hair. Plastic is usually used for short range transmission, while glass is used for the long-range.

Fiber Optic brings you the best TV services when compared to any other type of connection. This is because the infrared signals travel at the speed of light through these fiber optic cables making it possible to get a far more vivid picture and high definition sound. Usually you get many more channels too. Since the data sent over cables is in digital form, it doesn’t need any conversion hence no detail is lost and you get the best picture/sound quality.

• High-Definition Audio & Video
• More Extensive Channel Lineup

• Not widely available
