If the TV is capable of upscaling it, then you are fine (which if it says only 480p/1080i, I'm assuming it has some form of scalar as most non-digital tv is 480i). However, if it is not, you'll have to confirm the box from the cable company upscales to 1080i. I know most boxes do, but there is a chance it doesn't.
If it doesn't, you can always get an upscaler from a site such as monoprice for fairly cheap.
