Abstract

A method for controlling communications between a cable television (CATV) network and a client network while preserving downstream CATV signal strength includes receiving a downstream CATV signal from a common terminal of a diplexer at a data port, blocking the downstream CATV signal from transmitting to a high frequency terminal of the diplexer, receiving an upstream CATV signal at the common terminal from the data port, receiving a first Multimedia over Coaxial Alliance (MoCA) signal at the common terminal from the data port, blocking the first MoCA signal from being transmitted to a low frequency terminal of the diplexer, receiving the first MoCA signal from the diplexer at network ports, receiving a second MoCA signal from at the low frequency terminal, blocking the second MoCA signal from transmitting to the high frequency terminal, and receiving the first MoCA signal from the common terminal at the data port.
