CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs

CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs are the products of a new digital cable standard.

This new standard is called OpenCable and it is a concerted effort to standardize the digital cable service network interface in North America. For more information, please refer to www.cablelabs.com.

Digital Cable Ready TVs are equipped with a proper digital cable tuner to receive digital cable signals from your local cable service provider. They are also designed to work with digital cable card modules (PCMCIA card modules called CableCARDs). These PCMCIA card modules or CableCARDs will be provided by your local cable service provider after a proper subscription process.

The provided CableCARD from your local cable service provider needs to be inserted into the CableCARD slot of a Digital Cable Ready TV. Please refer to page 22 for how to insert the CableCARD. A digital set-top box which used to be provided by the cable service provider is no longer needed with Digital Cable Ready TVs and CableCARDs.

When CableCARD is inserted into the slot, the TV screen will show the message that CableCARD is inserted and tries to download necessary data such as channel information or subscription information from your digital cable service provider. When you insert CableCARD for the first time, this process could take few minutes depending on the amount of data your cable provider needs to send.

During this process the digital cable service provider or CableCARD may display messages on the TV screen to help or give you further information.

Please contact your local cable provider for more information on service availability and how to acquire a CableCARD.

HL-R4266W specifications

The Samsung HL-R4266W is a striking example of rear-projection television technology, offering viewers a blend of high-definition resolution and an impressive display size in a sleek design. Introduced as part of Samsung's lineup in the mid-2000s, this model stands out due to its 42-inch screen size that caters to a wide range of viewing preferences, making it an attractive choice for home entertainment.

At the heart of the HL-R4266W is its DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, which enhances image quality by utilizing a digital micromirror device. This method of projection creates vibrant colors, deep blacks, and sharp images, contributing to an immersive viewing experience. With a resolution of 720p, the television supports high-definition content with a crisp clarity that was cutting-edge for its time.

One notable feature of the HL-R4266W is its incorporation of the Samsung "Light Engine" technology, which improves brightness and color accuracy. This advancement allows viewers to enjoy consistent picture quality in various lighting conditions, whether in a darkened room or a brightly lit living space. The television also supports a wide color gamut, resulting in rich and accurate colors that enhance cinematic experiences.

The HL-R4266W comes equipped with multiple input options, including HDMI and component video connections, ensuring compatibility with a variety of modern devices such as DVD players, gaming consoles, and cable boxes. The availability of these ports makes it easy for users to connect their favorite entertainment sources, further enhancing the TV's versatility.

In terms of design, the HL-R4266W features a sleek black cabinet that fits seamlessly into any home decor. Its lightweight structure makes it easier to set up and reposition as needed. The television also has a built-in speaker system that provides decent sound quality, though for audiophiles, an external sound system may be required to achieve a more immersive audio experience.

Overall, the Samsung HL-R4266W combines robust technology with user-friendly features, making it a reliable choice for those seeking a quality rear-projection television. While it may not match the capabilities of today's ultra-high-definition models, it remains a notable option for home entertainment enthusiasts who appreciate the classic appeal of DLP technology.
