Today's digital QAM carriers demand greater plant integrity over past generation analog. PPC has several options that offer a basic level of service to subscribers.
Subscribers that choose Cable Modem services without video require the installation of filters that prevent the reception of analog video services. PPC Data Only filters have many configurations to fit specific needs.
The SNBR series Data Only filters provide superior pass-band performance to ensure reliable data services.
Ingress noise is a major concern with two-way services. PPC has developed a series of filters to control this problem. Now with the introduction of VoIP, ingress mitigation is critical in order for robust, reliable voice services to be made available.
With increased bandwidth to 750 MHz and higher, maintaining the correct carrier levels at the subscriber is becoming more difficult. Adding to this problem is the increased number of TV’s and other devices used. PPC has designed a series of filters to balance the full spectrum of carriers.
Single channel notch filters block individual pay channels and also serve as a restrictive device against channels that subscribers prefer not to receive. Because these filters have inherently narrow bandwidths, they require careful maintenance of their stability. PPC’s patented design incorporates hermetic connector interface seals that prevent moisture from entering the filter, thus eliminating frequency drift.
PPC can provide a custom trap assembly for every situation. Whether the assembly is needed in a pedestal application where space is at a premium, or in an aerial application, PPC custom trap assemblies will solve the situation.
The quality construction of PPC’s trap accessories provides optimal performance and superior protection against water and the elements for reliable, long-term use. PPC’s trap tools make for fast, easy and consistent installation.
