M-Card MediaCipher Multi-Stream CableCARD

Based on OpenCable standards, the M-Card enables a wide variety of consumer electronics products to include Motorola's MediaCipher™ and DigiCipher^® conditional access technologies. M-Card's higher throughput rates support simultaneous viewing and recording of multiple digital video channels — and dual-tuner, picture-in-picture viewing of two premium channels simultaneously — with Motorola's unsurpassed cable programming security.

The M-Card expands upon single-stream conditional access features and provides compatibility with S-Card devices, while maximising cable operators' investment in single-stream technologies. M-Card is included with Motorola's Digital Cable Host (DCH) set-tops.
