(1) (Digital TV Adapter) See TV converter box.

(2) (Digital Terminal Adapter) A low-cost set-top box deployed by cable companies that provides digital service from the cable to analog TVs or digital TVs via the coax cable input. The digital terminal adapter (DTA) has only two coax cable connectors: in from the cable; out to the TV. It does not support a digital program guide or video-on-demand; however, it does display a brief name of the channel along with channel number on screen. The TV is set to channel 3 or 4, and channel changing is performed in the DTA.

These devices were designed to reclaim analog channel space for more digital services. For example, Comcast claimed its 2009-2010 DTA deployment would enable it to replace 50 channels of analog spectrum with higher Internet speeds, more video-on-demand and up to 100 HD channels.
