Dvb C/T tuner, analog ?

[stu667]

Hello,

I would like to switch to an Ultimo with dvbs2 and dvbc/t tuner but I don't know if the dvbc tuner can handle the analog channels.

According to the specifications it can but I prefer if someone can confirm.

The specs :

Hybrid - DVB-C/T-Tuner:

TV and radio programmes with antenna and digital cable
VHF-Channel: 2-12 (49...230 MHz) <------ analog stuff here
UHF-Channel: 21-69 (470...861 MHz)
DVB-C HDTV compatible
Input frequency: 51...858 MHz
Symbol rate: 1 ... 7 Mbaud/s
Input impedanz: 75 Ohm
Tuner In/Out connector: IEC
DVB-C / DVB-T switchable by software

This would be the ultimate box for me if it works

Where can you see that specifications say it's an analog tuner too ?
The only clue is that "hybrid" but I can't see the analog demodulator is data specs.

The red part. VHF/UHF is normaly analog frequency or am I wrong here ?

Input frequency: 51...858 MHz
Symbol rate: 1 ... 7 Mbaud/s

This is the part that is with no doubt digital. All the digital cable channels I have from my provider are on these frequency. The channels that are analog are on the VHF/UHF part.

That's why I ask the question. If someone with cable can make it clear.

Thanks

No mate, you can't tell by frequency if it's digital or analog. It all depends on modulation (frequencies are the same)
