A set-top box, known as a cable box or a television decoder, is an information appliance system that often has a TV tuner input and outputs output to a television set and an external source of signal, converting the source signal into material that is viewed on the television screen or other display devices. 4K set top boxes have applications in cable, satellite, over-the-air broadcasting networks, and others. Users use a telephone line or a cable link to access the Internet on the television with a device that connects to it.

Increased penetration of 4K TVs in the upper economic class and government mandates relating to digitization in the area are largely responsible for fast growth prospects in the region. As a direct result of increased local demand, the prices of ultra HD televisions and compatible STB devices dropped, resulting in consumer growth in the area.
