ABSTRACT:
In a system for distributing CATV signals to multiple customer locations, each location is connected to a remote terminal via a dedicated optical fiber. The tuner associated with each customer TV set is located in the remote terminal. Channel-selection signals are sent over the fiber from the customer location to the remote terminal. Only the single selected channel is then transmitted over the fiber from the remote terminal to the associated TV set.
