Its main offer will consist of four packages, the cheapest of which will include 23 channels and 20 Mbps broadband internet access and cost CZK349 (€11.7) a month.
The most expensive will offer 38 channels and 40 Mbps for CZK539 a month, though viewers will in addition be able to receive a number of thematic packages including one with seven HD channels for CZK249 a month.
Digizone reports that OrbisNet will also deliver its service via cable from the beginning of September 1.
