It's for a smartcard, just like your virgin box uses. The cable version is also the same as the satellite version only with a different tuner and you need to use a smartcard to watch any satellite packages. It's to allow you to view premium channels on your network, normally.
The emu, i.e. evocamd, does the same job as a card would do.
Theoretically, you could use your virgin card and get the channels that you pay for.
