MC Cable (formerly MC Cable) is a cable television company for the Principality of Monaco owned by Monaco Telecom. It offers two services: a universal service with over 80 channels and a box-based service with over 200 French and foreign TV and radio channels.
History
[edit]The company was established in 1990 as Société Monégasque de Télédistribution (Somodi or SMT), as a result of a cabling law forbidding television antennas from being installed inside the country.[1] As of 2000, the company was one of Vivendi's subsidiaries.[2]
In 2001, SMT was taken over by Monaco Telecom and was renamed MC Cable.[1]
In 2010, it launched its new VDSL offer, upgrading to an IPTV system. The universal service (six analogue channels) was replaced by a new, 18-channel one.[3]
