Abstract: A cable television (CATV) multi-tap system includes a tap housing. The system also includes a face plate including one or more subscriber ports. The system also includes a circuit board positioned within the tap housing and coupled to the face plate. The system also includes an access cover coupled to the tap housing. The access cover is configured to be removed from the tap housing to allow access to the circuit board without removing the face plate or the circuit board from the tap housing.

Abstract: A signal conditioning module for a cable tap may include a reversible jumper having at least one pair of U-shaped wires, a first body configured to receive the at least one pair of U-shaped wires on opposite ends within the first body and protruding through recesses within the first body; and a second body configured to cover the first body and retain the at least one pair of wires in place. The first body and the second body are configured to be connected together to form a t-shape, the first body and the second body having a set of first edges that are angled with respect to opposite second edges. A printed circuit board (PCB) includes at least two sets of contacts, wherein the PCB is configured to connect with the reversible jumper and selectively form a first electrical path of at least two electrical paths through the PCB when the reversible jumper is installed in the PCB in a first position.

Abstract: A tap for a cable-television network includes a coupling device configured to receive downstream signals from a distribution line, to provide upstream signals to the distribution line, or both, a plurality of signal conditioning circuits each configured to apply a signal conditioning effect to the downstream signals, the upstream signals, or both, a path-selection device electrically connected to the coupling device and configured to selectably route signals to one or more of the plurality of signal conditioning circuits, and one or more subscriber ports configured to receive at least some of the signals that are selectably routed by the path-selection device, and configured to connect to one or more cables extending to a subscriber premises.
