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.

The Samsung HL-R5067W, HL-R6167W, and HL-R5667W are part of Samsung's line of DLP (Digital Light Processing) rear-projection televisions, offering impressive picture quality and advanced technology for an enhanced viewing experience. These models were particularly popular in the mid-2000s, marking a significant step forward in home entertainment.

One of the primary features of these models is their DLP technology, which utilizes a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) to reflect light through a color wheel. This technology allows for high-resolution images with excellent color accuracy and sharpness. The HL-R5067W, with a 50-inch screen, delivers a 720p resolution, while the HL-R6167W and HL-R5667W offer larger screen sizes of 61 inches and 56 inches, respectively, also at a 720p resolution. Despite the difference in size, all models are designed to provide a stellar viewing experience, particularly in darkened rooms.

Additionally, these televisions feature Samsung's proprietary Wide Color Enhancer technology, which enhances color depth and vibrancy, resulting in a more lifelike image. The integration of advanced digital processing allows these models to display fast-moving images with minimal motion blur, making them ideal for watching action-packed movies or sports.

Connectivity is another strong point for the HL-R5067W, HL-R6167W, and HL-R5667W models. Each television is equipped with multiple inputs, including HDMI, component, and composite video, allowing users to connect a variety of devices such as Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and cable boxes. This flexibility ensures that users can enjoy a comprehensive home theater setup.

Another important characteristic of these models is their thin profile compared to older CRT televisions, making them easier to integrate into modern living spaces. Their sleek design is complimented by a stylish remote that simplifies navigation and access to various features.

In conclusion, the Samsung HL-R5067W, HL-R6167W, and HL-R5667W TVs stand out in the realm of rear-projection televisions, showcasing Samsung's dedication to quality and innovation. With their DLP technology, impressive picture quality, and flexible connectivity options, these televisions provide a compelling option for anyone looking to upgrade their home entertainment system. While newer technologies have since emerged, these models remain a testament to the evolution of television technology.
