A cable box is a metal enclosure (found in the vicinity of a house that has cable service) that connects a house or building to the cable provider. This is traditionally the demarcation point and signifies where the service provider's responsibility ends and the customer's responsibility (for cabling and connections) begins. The box is usually located near the connection points for other service connections (electric or telephone). Other locations of the cable box include centralized locations (apartment buildings), lawns, or telephone poles.
Purpose
Cable boxes direct cable service to the cable wiring inside the house or building being serviced. To control which channels are available to the subscriber, service providers may place analog filters at the transmitting or receiving end, a method once popular in the '90s although now less common. Digital cable providers now use digital methods to control the availability of channels.
A cable converter box or television converter box is an electronic tuning device that transposes/converts any of the available channels from a cable television service to an analogRF signal on a single channel, usually VHFchannel 3 or 4, or to a different output for digital televisions such as HDMI. The device allows a television set that is not “cable ready” to receive cable channels. While later televisions were "cable ready" with a standard converter built-in, the existence of premium television (aka pay per view) and the advent of digital cable have continued the need for various forms of these devices for cable television reception. While not an explicit part of signal conversion, many cable converter boxes include forms of descrambling to manage carrier-controlled access restriction to various channels.
Cable-ready televisions and other cable-aware A/V devices such as video recorders can similarly convert cable channels to a regular television set, but these do not include advanced capabilities such as descrambling or digital downconversion.
This video will show you how to set up a new Xfinity-Comcast X1 (XiD-P) Cable Box.

How To Connect A Wireless Cable Box To A TV-Full Tutorial
In this video, I show you how to connect a wireless cable box to a TV. It is a really simple process, and the amazing thing about wireless cable boxes is that they don't need a coaxial cable since they are wireless. This makes the process even easier than connecting an old school cable box to a television. The most difficult part is basically connecting it to your internet system and actually getting the cable signal to transmit to the TV.
