Cable Packages Starting to Unravel
The Future of Bundled Cable in Question
 The average American TV household receives
189 channels, but tunes into just 17 channels1
 Average cable bill growing at 5.8% per year,
outpacing inflation – up 30% over past 5 years2
 Increasing programming costs, particularly for
sports, driving cost escalation – cost passed on
to consumers; non-sports viewers effectively
subsidizing sports viewers
 Increasing incentive for viewers to try
alternatives and reduce cost, combined with
proliferation of OTT alternatives driving change
 Net neutrality, new business models, new
technology, new market entrants all in the mix
 Beginning in March 2016, Canadian regulatory
authorities will require cable TV providers to let
their customers pick and pay for channels after
a $35/mo. basic package

Security – Content, Systems … and Partners
Content Security; Infrastructure Security – Challenge
 The IT breach of Sony’s network, leading to the leak of confidential content, has
placed cybersecurity at the front of every corporation’s priority list
 Increased use of SaaS, outsourced services introduces complex interconnections
between systems with potentially untested and unknown vulnerabilities
 As users become more mobile, content generation increases, and the number
and sophistication of hacking attempts rises, breaches will be inevitable
“Our customers in [the broadcast] market are already planning for IP-based solution[s] that
automate complex and critical workflow systems and processes. Ensuring that these networks'
elements and content is safe and secure will become increasingly important to them.”
John Stroup, President and CEO of Belden
