Frequently asked questions

The EAS is designed to provide subscribers with emergency alerts, such as warnings about severe weather, natural disasters, and other critical events. It receives emergency alerts from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and broadcasts them to subscribers through a digital television system.

The process involves receiving an alert from the FCC or a local authority, processing it through the EAC, and then forwarding it to the DNCS, where it's sent to set-top boxes.

The key components include the Emergency Alert Controller (EAC), the Digital Network Control System (DNCS), and the set-top boxes that receive the alerts.
