The broadcasting of radio programs via ultra-short wave (FM/UKW Air) is to be discontinued throughout Switzerland at the end of 2024 and replaced by DAB+. In order to be able to offer our customers a high-performance infrastructure, the cable network will be upgraded in the following regions mentioned below.
The Sunrise cable network will be upgraded in some areas to offer superfast internet and TV services. This means that DAB+ Cable technology will replace the Cable FM reception. However, customers in these areas will still be able to receive radio stations via DAB+ Cable over cable or with our TV box.
