A headend is a facility that processes and distributes television (analog and digital) signals received from satellite, cable, or broadband providers to multiple customers. It serves as a distribution hub that links the customer premises equipment (CPE)—such as set-top boxes (STBs), digital video recorders (DVRs), and cable modems—to the network, and as a content aggregator that receives and processes the signals from various sources.
