Den minste i Dreambox familien, leveres både i (S)atelitt versjon og (C)able versjon.;

DM 500 S/C

Rimelig tuner av god kvalitet. Dette er ingen billig plastikk sak.Like liten som en VHS kassett, men ikke la DM 500 lure deg. Den har masse av godsakene som gjør nettopp Dreambox så genial.

Foruten:
-LAN/nettverkskort
-1 smartkort leser
-AC3 utgang og SCART
Så går denne også på 12 Volt om du ønsker det.
Denne lille kraftpluggen er også lynkjapp. Fjernkontrollen er liten og søt. Garantert til å vekke oppmerksomhet.  
Det kommer også en Terrestial  (500T) tuner snart.
