Indoor splitter structure of cable television system

An indoor splitter, especially an indoor splitter used in a cable television system, wherein the indoor splitter has a function of detecting a disconnection.

The Community Antenna Television Service (CATV) is a network system that uses coaxial cable to receive or transmit television signals. The cable TV network system is a one-to-many long-distance transmission method (system-to-user). In addition to transmitting signals by coaxial cable, it is necessary to use an amplifier (Amplifier), a splitter (Multi Tap), and a power plug-in (Power). Devices such as Inserter) transmit the transmission signal to the remote client.

At present, the cable television network system is connected to the client television through a coaxial cable. In addition to transmitting a radio frequency (RF), the coaxial cable is added to the power inserter at a suitable distance to load the power signal. Provide power to operate each device.

In the case of a splitter, the splitter has the function of dividing the transmitted signal into multiple paths. Referring to the first figure, a circuit block diagram of a prior art splitter, wherein the main signal includes a power signal (AC90V 10A) carrying an RF signal (RF). The splitter is mainly composed of a distributor 41 (SpIitter), a high frequency transformer 42 (Coupler), a main signal input port 43, and a main signal output port 44.

The distributor 41 has a first output port 411 and a second output port 412. The main signal is input from the main signal input 埠43 into the barrier via the capacitor 45. The capacitor 45 filters the power (low frequency) signal of the main signal to make the RF (high frequency) signal and the power signal divergence.

The RF signal is transmitted to the distributor 41 via the high frequency transformer 42 and then outputted from the first output port 411 and the second output port 412, and the RF signal is transmitted back to the high frequency transformer 42 and then the power signal is recombined into the main signal. It is output by the main signal output 埠44 and transmitted to the next place. An inductive coil 47 for passing a power signal is disposed between the two capacitors 45 and 46.

However, the shortcoming of the cable television system is that it is impossible to detect whether the cable of the user terminal is cut or stolen. From the circuit block of the first figure, when the main signal is output 44, the first output 埠When the cable 411 of the 411 or the second output port 412 to the user television is cut off, the system control terminal cannot detect that the cable television cable has become a disconnected state, and thus cannot perform any anti-theft function, such as stopping the transmission immediately. Signal. In the process of disconnection, because the cable TV cable system is still transmitting signals, as long as the cable TV cable is cut back, it can continue to watch cable TV, which is not only bad for the operator's operation, but also for the paid viewers. It is even more unfair.

Therefore, it is necessary to provide an indoor diver that can detect whether the cable television cable has been cut or stolen to solve the above-mentioned lack of conventional technology.

The main purpose of the present invention is to provide an indoor splitter structure of a cable television system, wherein the indoor splitter receives the mixed signal output by the outdoor splitter, and transmits the cable signal in the mixed signal to the client via the disconnection detector. TV for users to watch.

The indoor splitter includes a voltage detecting unit, and the voltage detecting unit is configured to detect a cable television connection state between the cable and the user terminal television. When the voltage detecting unit is connected to the user terminal television and has a disconnection detector, the voltage detecting unit The transistor enters a conducting state, and the indoor splitter can continuously receive the mixed signal transmitted by the system control end via the outdoor distributor, and further transmit the cable signal in the mixed signal to the user television.

Conversely, if the voltage detection unit and the disconnection detector of the user television are removed, the transistor in the voltage detection unit will enter an off state, and the voltage detection unit will generate a detection signal to the system control end. When the system control terminal receives the detection signal, it immediately stops the outdoor distributor from transmitting the cable signal to the indoor splitter that sends the detection signal.

Therefore, the creation can detect whether the cable television cable is cut or stolen, thereby implementing the monitoring function and stopping the transmission of the cable television signal to the indoor splitter that is detected to be disconnected.
