DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to the block diagram of FIG. 1 showing an embodiment. In the same figure, a CATV signal from an input end 1 is amplified by an amplifier 3 via a mixer 2, and then sent out from an output end 4, and the input end 1 and output end 4 are connected to the CATV main cable. This compensates for the transmission loss of the trunk cable.
