Satellite TV functions through a system of communication satellites that are in geostationary orbit. These geostationary satellites capture digital signals and relay them back down to earth to a satellite receiver or dish. The satellite receiver translates digital signals in a similar manner that a digital converter box will, which eliminates any analog problems.

Fiber optic TV employs fiber optic cables which have been shown to be very resilient and much less prone to outside interferences such as static and storms. This makes certain that data transported over the fiber optic network is not lost or delayed and transmits with greater clarity for the greatest picture possible.
