Argentina's Supercanal and CableHogar Migrate to DVB-C with Conax The Argentine MSO Supercanal, which two years ago started to digitalize using Motorola's system in Mendoza province, now adopted DVB-C technology to cover new regions, such as Reconquista, located in Santa Fe province. Grandvision supplies STBs and CAS is provided by Conax, which has already been achieved with MSO Cablevisión and is moving forward with TVSA Group, and is gaining ground with its DVB migration. Cablevisión has three million subscribers. It is the leading MSO in Argentina and stands second in Latin America. Supercanal is the second MSO of importance in Argentina, with a little less than half-million subscribers and less than 5% of them are digitalized. Supercanal holds operations in the whole country and migrating to DVB-C, except from Mendoza where it has its base. Conax gained the two main Argentine cable operators and the fourth MSO, called TVSA, whose operator emblem is CableHogar from Rosario and Cable Express located in Salta and Santiago del Estero. As a whole, it is estimated that TVSA has about 70,000 subscribers. The third MSO in the market, Telecentro, has Motorola's system. And the fifth one, Gigared also utilizes Conax. There are also two big groups, Red Intercable and Colsecor, but they are both operators' associations. Red Intercable is digitalizing with Iderto's CAS. Other Argentine cable operators such as Telered, TPO, S-Vision, Davitel and Del Viento have also implemented Conax. Conax stands third as a global CAS provider, but was the leader in smartcards sales last year if replacements are not taken into account. In South America are the Telmex operators, except for Net Servicios, which utilizes Nagra. |
