## Abstract

On September 14, 2000, the Federal Communications Commission adopted a Report and Order (R&O) on the labeling of digital television (DTV) receivers and other consumer electronics receiving devices. The labeling requirements are designed to ensure that consumers understand the capability of digital television equipment to operate with cable television systems. This will not only aid consumers in making informed purchasing decisions with respect to DTV equipment but also promote the overall transition from analog to digital television.
