TV reception technologies

Starting from Spring 2025, all Finnish terrestrial television networks will migrate fully to DVB-T2 broadcast technology, which enables high-definition (HD) broadcasts. After the transition, you need a television or set-top box with an HD tuner to receive TV broadcasts. This also applies to households covered by the cable network.

You can find information about the prevalence of HD devices in households by reception network on our statistics page (External link). The statistic describes the proportion of households that have at least one receiver equipped with an HD tuner and suitable for the network in question.

Below you can read more about the equipment needed to watch HD broadcasts in different networks.
