Effective immediately, you can jump back up to 7 days in the TV guide. Customers who subscribe to Horizon will get the new Replay function in conjunction with a Horizon update. 500 Mbit/s data download will now also be offered to everyone. In addition, the Horizon HD Recorder now comes in a new format for fast Web surfers.
The technical work carried out over recent weeks has now been successfully completed. The new Replay function is here and brings with it some clear advantages:
• 7 days of Replay available (depending on subscription)
• Select programmes that have already been broadcast directly via the TV guide
• Watch programmes that have already started from the beginning at the push of a button
• Easier and clearer to operate
• 99 channels to choose from (all language regions combined)
In addition to the new Replay features, the Horizon update also enables quicker navigation and zapping, shows more details of episode titles and offers even better film and programme recommendations.
The new Replay function is now available to new Horizon digital television customers as well as most existing Horizon DTV customers. More information is available in the upc-cablecom.ch/horizonnews and upc-cablecom.ch/replay sections.

500 Mbit/s for everyone
Surfing the Web at full speed? You can now all benefit from the super-fast Internet connection, something which had until now been reserved for a lucky few. Our current maximum data download speed is being doubled to 500 Mbit/s and will now be available in the whole of Switzerland. We can also guarantee stabile Internet performance if the TV is on at the same time as surfing the Web.
Horizon HD Recorder in a new format
The Horizon HD Recorder’s format has been adapted slightly to coincide with Internet 500 being introduced within the footprint. First and foremost, the marginally smaller box supports the Internet speed of 500 Mbit/s as well as the WiFi standard 802.11ac. Furthermore, the box has lower power consumption and adapted connections on the back (e.g. no more Scart socket).
New customers with Internet 500 will receive this new model. Existing customers who switch to Internet 500 can also make the switch.
