CEA-761-B defines minimum specifications for a one-way data path utilizing an 8 VSB trellis or a 16 VSB remodulator in compliance with ATSC Standard A/53, Annex D. It also defines on-screen display (OSD) capabilities. CEA-761-B applies to any type of device used to connect to an ATSC compliant digital television receiver (DTV) receiver. Devices meeting this standard should interoperate with any ATSC compliant receiver that also supports "monitor mode."

CEA-679-C describes the physical and electrical parameters of the interface for conditional access (CA) devices for consumer electronics (CE). It specifies the interface to a CA device that performs the signal access and, optionally, descrambling and key generation. This interface definition allows the entire CA system to be removable and hence replaceable. Very few constraints, if any, are placed on the CA system architecture.
