Collection: CAM & CI+ Modules

A standard CI (Common Interface) module supports older conditional access systems and lacks content protection features. A CI+ module adds a secure authenticated channel between the TV and the module, which is required by most modern pay-TV broadcasters. If your TV has a CI+ slot, always use a CI+ certified module to ensure full channel compatibility. Browse our full range of CAM & CI+ Modules to find the right fit.

Most CI+ modules follow the standardised CI+ specification, so they work with CI+-equipped TVs from major brands such as Samsung, LG, Sony, Philips and Panasonic. However, some TV manufacturers implement proprietary extensions that can affect compatibility. Always check the module manufacturer's compatibility list before purchasing, and match the CI+ version (1.3 or 1.4) to your TV's slot specification.

Yes, in most cases a smart card (provided by your pay-TV operator) is required alongside the CAM module. The module is the hardware interface; the smart card carries your subscription entitlements. Some newer modules support card-less operation using software-based entitlement management, but this depends on your provider's system. Contact your operator to confirm what is included with your subscription.

Yes — many set-top receivers also feature a CI or CI+ slot, allowing you to use a CAM module without relying on the TV's own interface. This is a common setup when the TV lacks a CI+ slot or when you prefer to centralise decryption in the receiver. Check your receiver's specifications to confirm CI+ support. Explore our Satellite & Terrestrial Receivers for compatible options.

Firmware updates for CI+ modules are typically delivered over the air (OTA) by your TV or receiver through the CI+ channel — no manual download is needed. Simply leave the module inserted and powered for a period after initial installation or after a broadcast update is released. Some modules may also offer USB or network-based updates via your TV's menu. Always keep the module updated to ensure compatibility with current broadcast security standards.

It depends on the module and the conditional access system. Some CAM modules are designed specifically for satellite (DVB-S/S2), others for cable (DVB-C), and some multi-standard modules support both. The key is whether the module supports the conditional access system used by each provider, not the transmission medium itself. Check the module's specification sheet for supported CA systems and input types before purchasing. You can also pair a compatible module with our Satellite & Terrestrial Receivers for a complete solution.
