Live Learning Agenda:
With the DTV Transition on February 17, 2009 and network operators transitioning to all digital networks, we have a new opportunity to improve our networks for future services. One area we need to focus on is EAS. With advanced digital networks being deployed and the DTV preparation complete, EAS is another critical component to successful integration of the next generation networks.

During this 60 minute Webcast, sponsored by Trilithic and hosted by CED, industry experts discuss in more detail the impact of EAS on cable operators’ systems.
