Overview
The CATV Distribution Hub allows terrestrial broadband
RF video to be distributed to multiple RF receivers via
Cat5 unshielded twisted pair cable and is available in an
8-port or 16-port configuration. The product supports
standard CATV channels, digital cable and broadband
Internet.
The CATV Hub also features built-in gain amplification,
port buffering and works in conjunction with MuxLab’s
passive CATV Balun II (500302) and other RF video
equipment for a complete RF cabling solution.
Applications
Residential, apartment, condominiums, hotels, offices,
schools, hospitals, trading floors.
