The local networks encompass a wide variety of service offerings that include various types of data transmission systems, monitoring and control systems, and video systems. It is expected that the much talked about integrated video teleconferencing capabilities will become a commercial success with the help of the enhanced transmission medium--namely fiber optics. This medium provides a commercial system provider with a flexible, reliable and a high growth capacity facility that not only accommodates traditional operations but adds value by providing new revenue sources. Fiber optics development, which is significantly supported by defense related R & D funds, is viewed from the CATV perspective by organizations such as Times Fiber Communications who bridge the special marketplace of intra busi-ness teleconferencing and the new technology. It is the intention of Times Fiber to develop components, methods and practices that are in conformance with the current CATV industry practices so that an orderly transition to the use of a new transmission technology could be effected in a painless way. This presentation is an attempt to look at the development of one commercially attractive service offering that a present CATV operation could offer over a fiber optics trunk.","PeriodicalId":100638,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cable Television","volume":"CATV-5 2","pages":"60-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1980-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TCATV.1980.285808","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68036328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is shown that the technology is now available to push the output level over 1 volt for a 12 channel NCTA crossmodulation ratio of -60 dB, or over 1/2 volt for a 35 channel NCTA crossmodulation ratio of -60 dB. The triple beat and second order distortion are typically -80 dB down at the output level of 1 volt. This ultralinear feedforward amplifier is thus an immediate substitute for two distribution amplifiers of conventional design.","PeriodicalId":100638,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cable Television","volume":"CATV-5 2","pages":"72-79"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1980-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TCATV.1980.285810","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68037541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Expanded channel capacity by means of increased bandwidth is now being promised in many major market franchise proposals. There is no reason to suggest that 400 MHz systems carrying up to 54 channel will not eventually work; but there is good reason to expect unanticipated inconvenient and costly technical and operational problems with new equipment that has never been field tested with 50 or more channels under actual operating conditions. The \"horsepower race\" toward larger and larger channel carriage capability should be replaced with sophisticated efforts to improve the efficiency of utilization of existing capacity, the technical quality of the signals carried, and the content of the programs transmitted.","PeriodicalId":100638,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cable Television","volume":"CATV-5 1","pages":"18-22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1980-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TCATV.1980.285831","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68002110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rapid growth of cable systems in the U.S.A. is encouraging the proliferation of program services for cable distribution. The tree structured broad-band nature of cable systems means that capacity must be provided for all of the service to be distributed irrespective of relative popularity. Cable losses follow a square root of frequency law which makes bandwidth extension attractive as a means of increasing channel capacity. Reducing the number of amplifiers in cascade and the use of coherent carrier systems makes it possible for extended bandwidth cable systems to handle the additional channel loading with no more distortion than in present 35 channel systems.","PeriodicalId":100638,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cable Television","volume":"CATV-5 1","pages":"10-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1980-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TCATV.1980.285830","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68002111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Improved system layout approaches, such as hubbing - in conjunction with the use of AML for hub interconnect - were tools used by the CATV operator to deliver quality pictures to their subscribers.
