Milford Communications delivers your video signal over an all-digital system of encrypted channels. Encryption is the process of encoding or scrambling programming so that individuals cannot view programming without authorization. Encryption also allows us to automate certain system functions and will reduce the need for scheduled in-home appointments, providing greater convenience for our customers. You will need a set-top-box (STB) or a digital transport adapter (DTA) on each TV in your home to view the programming.

Milford Communications offers a number of gadget options for you. Your first option is the DTA Smart Box or digital transport adapter. This Smart Box lets you receive and decode (allow you to view) all encrypted channels (including high definition) and has a simple channel guide. Your second option is the DCX 700 Set-Top-Box. This Standard Box allows you to view all encrypted channels (including high definition), offers Dolby audio and the i-Guide. The Standard Box can also be networked with the DCX 3510 Whole Home DVR Box for Whole Home DVR service. The final option is the DCX 3510 or the Whole Home DVR Box. This box offers two tuners (record multiple shows at the same time), i-Guide, Dolby audio and a 500 GB hard drive. It can be networked with the Standard Box allowing you to watch recorded shows in up to four rooms.

This of course depends on what type of gadget you choose. The Smart Box fee is $1.95 per month. The Standard Box fee is $4.95 per month and the Whole Home DVR Box fee is $8.95 per month.
