The FCC’s set-top integration ban expired in Dec, but cable is still required to post stats on CableCARD deployments for retail devices. NCTA said Fri that Cablevision, Charter, Comcast, Cox and Time Warner Cable have deployed more than 589K cards for use in retail CableCARD-enabled devices. When the next 4 largest incumbent cable operators are included, that number grows to 621K. By contrast, those 9 companies have almost 55mln operator-supplied set-tops with cards currently deployed.
