ABSTRACT:
Downstream and upstream signals in a transmission system are attenuated by different amounts to allow upstream signals to be originated at individual subscribers (22--22, 30--30) at the same level yet be received at a common upstream amplifier (19b) at substantially the same level. Different attenuation of downstream and upstream signals is achieved by the combination of a pair of directional couplers (110a and 110b) and a diplex filter (132). The couplers and diplex filter collectively separate a downstream signal destined for the subscriber from an upstream signal generated by the subscriber. The upstream signal which is separated may be attenuated by a matching loss element (138) to attenuate the upstream signal by an amount greater or less than the downstream signal.
