Hello.

I am not sure if anyone here would have knowledge of this subject but I had some questions about the outside pedestal in regards to cable services.


1. The different levels of cable service are simple a matter of adding/removing the correct filters to the line.


2. Is signal strength determine by any changes in the pedestal or is that amplified after it goes inside the house? In other words, is there are a weak signal would it require changes to the cable once it entered the house( possible with an amp) or would it require a change be made to something inside the pedestal?

3. The wiring between the pedestal and the house consist of 1 coax cable which would be considered the master input feed correct. This input feed must then be distributed to the various cable outlets in the house possible by connecting to a large cable splitter?

That is my understanding on how this entire system works. Please let me know if I have a correct understanding of it or if I am off base.

Thanks.
