A CableCARD is a device that consumers who own Digital Cable Ready (DCR) TVs will receive from their Cable provider to allow for the descrambling of digital programming. The card is inserted into your DCR TV and allows for the descrambling of the digital signal. The card works in place of a traditional set top box.

Cablecard will not allow a subscriber to receive TV Guide services, Pay Per View, or Video on Demand due to the one-way nature of the CableCARD device's function.
