CipherTV QAM FAQs

How many channels can a single CipherTV QAM support?

Each CipherTV QAM hardware can support 80 HD channels. We can chain multiple devices for additional channel requirements.

How many rooms can each CipherTV QAM support?

One CipherTV QAM hardware can service your entire hotel through its COAX cable plant. Theoretically there is no limit to the number of rooms as long as the building’s existing Coaxial Cable is RF balanced to support reaching all the rooms.

How much internet bandwidth is required for the CipherTV QAM?

Each channel requires a dedicated 3Mbps connection, so if 50 channels, you would require 150Mbps dedicated to support the hotel TV service.

How are TV’s connected to CipherTV QAM?

Each room’s TV is plugged directly into the Coaxial Cable jack, and then tuned to receive signals. The TV remote is used to switch channels.

What type of hotel TV’s are required?

Nearly all TV’s support QAM through their Coaxial Cable tuner. Today’s standard supported is J.83 Annex B, which should be outlined on the back of your TV sets.

Can CipherTV QAM support older standard TV’s?

No, CipherTV QAM supports the current J.83 Annex B standard. The previous ANSI-SCTE-07-2013 standard can be supported with an additional piece of equipment that supports this older standard

How do guests access the TV Channel guide?

There is a scrolling channel guide on one of the CipherTV QAM channels that shows each channel and upcoming shows.

Can guests access video-on-demand movies?

Our video-on-demand channels are only available if guests are using the CipherTV Set-top Box. Hotels can carry CipherTV Set-top Boxes in addition to the CipherTV QAM to offer select guests VOD access.

Other CipherTV Hotel Scenarios

In addition to providing hotels with a reliable TV option, our TV service and system can also be configured to serve other types of commercial use cases.   Our TV technology not only can broadcast over IP or COAX, but can also provide customers an ability to broadcast their own live channel or video-on-demand content to their community users.  Contact us for custom commercial TV solutions for:

  • Remote work camps
  • Hospital, long term care homes, prisons
  • Bulk condominium TV
  • Indigenious community TV
  • Internet service provider TV reseller

Connectivity Options

Our CipherTV Hotel service is available and runs optimal for all (AEBC, CipherTV, CipherKey) network customers.   We can provide commercial fiber access, or bonded carrier cable / DSL access to your building for quality, high uptime service.

For buildings that are not connected to our network, or that do not have network capacity, we can provide a small satellite head-end installation. This installation would require a minimum of 2 satellite dishes on the roof and as many receivers as needed to receive your selected TV channels. The satellite system operates on its own, and would not be affected by any internet connection issues.
