Methods and systems capable of improving the transmission of data along an upstream path of a Hybrid Fiber-Coaxial Cable Network, from a transmitter in a node to a receiver in a Cable Modem Termination System.

Techniques for adding WiFi capabilities to a region may include installing WiFi access points in a cable television (CATV) system. For easier installation of the WiFi access points, a WiFi access point extension devices may be integrated into existing taps in the CATV system. The WiFi extended taps are able to provide radio frequency (RF)/CATV signals to subscribers, provide power to the respectively integrated WiFi access point, and maintain power to the coaxial transmission line during installation. During installation, the WiFi access point extension devices can be integrated into the CATV outdoor distribution plant without having to splice into an existing coaxial transmission line. The multiplicity of existing tap locations in CATV distribution plants makes the positioning of new wireless access points extremely versatile for the cable provider.

Described herein are systems and methods for a JXP-type plug-in device that may be inserted within existing transmission equipment, such as RF amplifiers and the like, to provide an appropriate amount of flat attenuation to the lower frequencies of signals being processed in the equipment while allowing desired peaking at high frequencies of the same signals to compensate for high-frequency roll-off.
