20th anniversary of digital cable?

« Cable providers discuss IPTV | Main | Phone providers having merger fever? »

Thought digital cable was a relatively new invention? Amazingly, digital cable has been around longer than you might think. In the town of Hunter's Creek near Orlando, Fl., BellSouth installed a fiber to the home (FTTH) digital transport system to transfer cable TV back in 1986.

Knowing this, it is obvious that the aquisition of BellSouth works well with AT&T's IPTV plans. To read more about Hunter Creek Cablevision and their early venture in digital television, you can read BellSouth???s Pioneering Fiber Cable TV System Revisited.
