Hello,
a "DBox Kabel" is a receiver for (digital) cable-tv, a "DBox Sat" is a (digital) satellite-receiver.

Hello,
yes, there are two types of boxes: for Satellite-Tv and for Cable-Tv.
If and/or how your cable-DBox can receive french digital TV-stations via the french cable-network, I don't know ...

Bye,
MTM.
