ABSTRACT:
In order to facilitate the installation of off-premises equipment which distributes CATV signals from a distribution cable to subscribers and to allow different subscribers to receive different classes of service (basic service alone or with one or more premium or pay-per-view channels), a pair of housings are used, one containing circuits for tapping the signals from the cable and the other for electronics hardware which processes the signals and distributes them to subscribers in accordance with the class of service which is ordered by the subscribers. The housing containing the tapping circuits is permanently connected to the cable and need not be removed or replaced when connecting additional subscribers or changing the class of service. The housing containing the electronics hardware for processing the signals may be attached to or along side of the first housing. The first housing may be suspended from the strand which supports the cable in an aerial mount configuration. The second housing may be attached to and suspended from the first housing. The first housing is smaller than the second housing so that the assembled housings constitute a body having a conning tower provided by the first housing.
