Today, cable television is a popular service that is used by almost all residents of the Russian Federation. The most advanced provider of these services on the market is Rostelecom. The cost of the service provided can be compared with the payment for a landline telephone. Rostelecom cable television gives subscribers the opportunity to connect to the global network in order to watch television programs, films and series. For ease of use of the service, a personal account with convenient functionality has been developed.
Cable TV from Rostelecom
Currently, cable connection to television is carried out only if the user has a connection to the global network. The equipment used is a special player and a set-top box controlled by a remote control. The installed program in the form of a personal account allows you to independently change settings and activate additional functions.
Before using the company’s services, you should check the prices for packages. The final price is influenced not only by the number of TV channels and the availability of additional options. But also the type of equipment used. For those users who spend a long time watching TV, it is more profitable to connect the maximum package of services that has no restrictions.

- Minimum, usually provides 22 channels.

List of channels Rostelecom cable TV
Before connecting to the Rostelecom cable television service, you should first study the list of channels. There may be no need to activate an additional package offer.
The standard tariff plan offers the most popular TV channels with high ratings for viewing. During the first 30 days you can test this tariff. The “Optimal” offer includes 162 channels, the list of which includes music, children’s, films and educational channels.
The package includes access to 194 channels. Among which we should highlight film and educational ones. The “premium” tariff plan offers additional options that include access to Interactive TV and video rental for free.
Analog or digital?
People who follow modern trends in television broadcasting know that analogue broadcasting in the Russian Federation will soon cease altogether. Worth o - this is not a completely correct definition.
This year it is planned to stop analogue broadcasting at the federal level, but regional channels can continue to air in the meter range. Household devices from Rostelecom receive all types of signals.
Analogue TV costs slightly less than digital TV and includes several additional options:
- installation of open and closed type cables;
- activation of additional television receivers;
- installation of an amplifier directly in the apartment;
- setting up equipment by a specialist;
- diagnostic testing and repair of devices;
- setting up equipment via the Internet.
Since the complete transition to digital broadcasting, contrary to forecasts, will continue for quite a long time, you can leave the “analog” service. Especially if you plan to watch regional channels that will broadcast in the meter range for at least another two to three years.
If the provided number of channels begins to be insufficient, and the choice is already quite limited, then you can think about connecting more modern broadcasting methods. An alternative for a collective antenna can be:
- Cable TV;
- IPTV;
- satellite dish.
By contacting the Rostelecom support service, you can get detailed information about the available methods and pricing policy.
How to connect cable TV Rostelecom
Before connecting Rostelecom cable television to your TV, carefully study the step-by-step guide so that unforeseen situations and errors do not arise during the process. A prerequisite for activating the service is an Internet connection.
After the application is submitted, the company's client receives a special router that connects directly to the cable. It is acceptable to use technologies such as ADSL or fiber optic network. If the service provides for the provision of additional equipment, then it is issued free of charge and will be withdrawn after termination of the contract.
What it is?
So, what opportunities does this from Rostelecom give the subscriber? It allows you to watch TV shows when it is convenient for you, pause them, save them to your device and rewind them to the desired moment. And with the help of convenient settings, you can protect children from unwanted content. Agree, very convenient!
Digital TV from Rostelecom is television without unnecessary wires and dishes. The set-top box is equipped with a special Wi-Fi adapter, which means the connection is made via wireless networks. At the same time, the Internet provider can be anything.
However, if the data transfer speed on your tariff is low, you can configure the connection via a cord, and then the picture will be of better quality. Or you can try choosing a different type of Rostelecom television connection.

Subscription fee
In Moscow, payment for a collective antenna is simplified as much as possible. According to the company’s agreement with large banks, the payment is included in the financial document according to which payments for housing and communal services are paid. This practice also exists in the regions, but it happens that the receipt for payment for the antenna comes as a separate document.
In addition, you can make a subscription payment using the Internet, payment terminals, or by contacting Sberbank. When paying for the service, certain categories of citizens are given a 50% discount. Those eligible for reduced pay include:
- single pensioners;
- families recognized as low-income;
- citizens who have a subsidy for utilities;
- heroes of the Russian Federation and the Soviet Union, as well as full holders of the Order of Glory.
In general, Rostelecom can be proud of the high quality of the services provided. Excellent technical support in voice mode allows you to solve almost any issue. If more serious problems arise, a technician is sent to the subscriber's address.
