ABSTRACT:
A node (100) for a communications system includes a forward distribution amplifier within a housing (600). Plug-in modules (200,400) can be removably attached to the forward distribution amplifier within the same housing (600) to change the functionality of the node (100). For example, the plug-in module can be a reverse amplifier module (200) for adding reverse signal processing function or an optical module (400) for adding optical capabilities.
