Please keep in
mind that this is not a cable box, it is a digital cable
descrambler / decoder filter, which plugs into the back of your
own current digital receiver box. It will allow you to receive
channels you have to order with your remote, such as all
your:
- Pay-Per-View channels
- Special
order sport channels
- Special
events
If you have
to call in to place your PPV order, it will not work. You must be
able to order your movies through your remote. All instructions
will be sent with the digital cable
descrambler/filter.
HPF 54 USED FOR INTERFERENCE FILTERING
Because cable modem gets bandwidth from your Cable TV
provider, the coaxial cable that provides the cable TV signal at
the jack will be split using a 2-way splitter Model 15-2582
(5-1100MHz) manufactured by Radio Shack. One signal will be sent
to the input jack of the TV set and the other goes to the input
jack of the broadband cable modem.
The transmitted signal from the cable modem can sometimes
overwhelm the cable signal going to the TV if both are connected
on the same string. This means adding a HPF 54 Filter such as the
one we sell (PASS: 54-2300MHz/STOP BAND: 0-40MHz). This filter is
manufactured for many different reasons. This is to allow only
the TV channel frequencies to pass through while blocking the
upstream frequency band and to block ingress noise in the low
upstream frequency range from the in-house wiring. Noise injected
at each individual residence accumulates in the upstream path
towards the head-end so it is essential to keep it at a minimum
at every single residence using cable modem service.
To connect the cable modem to the PC desktop via Ethernet, a
Network Interface Card (NIC) must be installed into a PCI or ISA
slot. In this case, an Etherfast® 10/100 LAN Card PCI Type
Model LNE100TX ver 5.1 manufactured by LinkSys is installed in
one of the spare PCI slots on the PC. The cable modem is then
attached to the Ethernet card via an RJ-45 network cable.
Once the introduction of cable television, the general
direction regarding entertainment programming had been driven in
one direction. That is, from the cable headend to the subscriber.
With the advent of Pay-Per-View (PPV) programming, information
began flowing from the subscriber to the cable operator.
Initially, it began with Pay-Per-View selection data including
billing. In some cases, the telephone served as the return
information path.
As new services for the homes increased, such as shopping,
banking and access to the Internet, faster data transfer became
necessary. The twisted pair, the telephone wires that normally
carried this data, can no longer satisfy this type of
requirement. The coaxial cable used in signal transmission for
cable television can provide the high speed return path
communication link for today's use and for future expansion. The
frequency band of 5 to 42 MHz was selected as the return path.
This particular frequency band is not without its own variety of
difficulties.
Unfortunately, there are many undesirable signals generated in
this frequency spectrum such as world radio, ham operators and
home appliances. These undesirable signals, or ingress, can get
into the cable system signal stream via poor connections or from
the home hook-up of the subscriber and contaminate the return
data information to the point where the data can no longer be
recognized. To eliminate this interference, put a HPF 54 filter
strategically into the drop cable. This filter, as shown in the
figure above, can be used in the system where return data from
the subscriber is not being used.
This device is to be used ONLY on your own privately owned
equipment! It is meant to be used as a second or third setting
when you are already fully activated. It can be used legally on
your own digital box when you have paid for an event that you are
watching on your other rented or privately owned box.
This unit is also a great tool for technicians to use on
equipment they are repairing and testing. If the technician was
to test the PPV buy option on the remote to see if the box is
indeed working correctly, they could press the "Buy" button on
the remote and the pay-per-view comes in, the box and TV are then
shut off by the technician so no one was to watch that paid
programming, and the customer is not billed for the PPV that was
ordered.
All programming that can be received by pressing the "Buy",
"Order" or "Purchase" button on your remote can be viewed without
the billing information from reaching the cable company by having
device connected to your digital cable box as it blocks the
billing information. Therefore, is is imperative that you notify
the cable company of any programming purchased and/or viewed
while using our equipment, and you must also please read and
agree to our terms of sale before purchasing any of our products,
and to abide by all local, state and federal laws regarding the
ownership and/or use of any cable equipment.
