A digital cable receiver, which has a simplified structure and can reduce the fabrication cost, is disclosed. The digital cable receiver includes an out-of-band (OOB) receiver receiving an out-of-band signal outputted from a cable head-end, a point of deployment (POD) interface transmitting the out-of-band signal outputted from the cable head-end and a transport stream outputted from POD module, and receiving the transport stream scrambled at the POD module, and an out-of-band (OOB) transmitter outputting the out-of-band signal outputted from the POD interface.
