UMES upgraded the cable television system in January 2017 to stay current with the latest technology and expand the number of channels available for viewing.
A basic cable TV cord is all you need to connect your TV to the wall cable outlet. Dorm rooms on campus only have a single CATV outlet and therefore a splitter will be need to be installed for multiple televisions in the room. Splitters can be purchased in the bookstore or usually found at the grocery store, pharmacy or big box store.
| You must program your television to get all the channels on your television. Use the auto-scan feature on your television's setup menu. |
Please see On-Campus Television Channel Line-up for the list of available channels.
