The Motorola DCT3080 all-digital set-top combines the extraordinary features of digital cable
with dual-tuner, all-digital video recording (DVR) for watch-and-record capability. The DCT3080
supports standard definition output only, and it does not support tuning analog channels on
the cable plant. This all digital DVR SD set-top rounds out Motorola's all-digital portfolio by
meeting a service provider's All-Digital Simulcast (ADS) requirements.
The DCT3080 all-digital set-top offers advanced capabilities, including a high-end,
high-performance microprocessor, expanded memory, and enhanced graphics. Being an
all-digital set-top, it provides service providers with a quick and cost-effective way of realizing
the benefits of an all-digital network for homes that do not require a high-definition format.
DCT3080 benefits include increased bandwidth for VOD content, on-demand information and
entertainment services, as well as reduction in theft of video services.
