Cignal Digital TV is the newest subscription-based Direct-To-Home (DTH) satellite television service provider in the Philippines. Cignal is owned by MediaScape, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the MediaQuest Holdings, Inc. under the PLDT Beneficial Trust Fund.
For subscribers to receive Cignal broadcasts, they must acquire upon subscription the satellite dish antenna, remote control, and the set top box (Integrated Receiver-Decoder). Cignal’s prepaid electronic loading system, is powered by the award-winning prepaid loading platform of Smart Communications, Inc., making it convenient for subscribers to continuously enjoy Cignal’s services via over-the-air loading. Cignal uses VideoGuard encryption system to protect its content from signal piracy. MediaScape is utilizing the NSS-11 satellite of SES to provide optimal coverage directly to the target markets.
As of 2009, Cignal is initially available in Bulacan, Rizal, Cavite, and Laguna, but it was now expanding including Metro Manila and other key cities in the Philippines.
