Azam TV is a popular satellite television provider operating across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Malawi, and Zimbabwe. In Kenya, Azam TV has built a solid subscriber base by offering premium entertainment, movies, and live sports at competitive rates compared to competitors like DStv and StarTimes.
One of Azam’s biggest selling points is its exclusive broadcast coverage of East African regional sports, including the FKF Premier League (Kenyan Premier League) and the Tanzanian Ligi Kuu Bara.
The standard HD Azam decoder features an HDMI port for 1080p picture output, an RCA jack for older TV models, and a USB port for playing external media files.
