Off-Premises Addressability System Design And Operational Considerations (1985)
By Joseph P. Preschutti, AM Cable TV Industries, lnc
Off-premises jammer systems (including the Tier Guard System) have been receiving higher interest due to intangible benefits associated with improved customer satisfaction: the use of VCRs, multi-channel sound, additional outlets for extra TVs and FM radio, etc.
This paper describes system design concepts required to deploy the off-premises Tier Guard System in a variety of CATV systems. Differences from traditional tapped feeder concepts are highlighted.
In addition, financial models for initial installation costs and operational benefits are provided, showing the Tier Guard System to be a cost-effective design concept in a variety of systems including urban, suburban, rural, new build, rebuild and upgrade situations.
