A point of deployment module includes a HOST-POD interface for connecting the point of deployment module to a digital audiovisual receiver. A first connector on the point of deployment module may receive a downstream signal from a service provider. A second connector on the point of deployment module may provide a signal to a tuner of the digital audiovisual receiver. An out of band transmitter in the point of deployment module provides an upstream signal to the service provider. A combiner may be coupled to the first connector, the second connector, and the out of band transmitter. The combiner may transfer the downstream signal from the first connector to the second connector and may transfer the upstream signal from the out of band transmitter to the first connector. The point of deployment module may include a receptacle for a second point of deployment module connected to the HOST-POD interface.
