This practical guide to the design, implementation, and maintenance of cable TV systems, written for technical personnel, engineers, managers, and operators, includes an overall introduction to standard NTSC and HDTV systems, outlining start-up procedures and development of the industry to the present day. The impact of new high-definition television (HDTV) systems is also discussed, for the first time in any cable TV book. This book presents a brief overview of the basic electrical circuits required for cable television systems, as well as sections on coaxial cables and cable systems, in which the whole cable TV distribution system is treated in detail. The head-end and hub system are completely discussed, and up-to-date material on cable system design and network topology is included. And to insure proper maintenance, readers get the latest test procedures and measurements, plus guidance on standards, records, and reference data.
