Abstract
A system and method enabling the concurrent provision of multiple multi-user band transmissions, each via a single cable, to a media gateway appliance, thereby providing the media gateway appliance with an increased array of user bands for the provision of program content. The multiple multi-user band transmissions can originate from a single multi-output single-cable interface, or from multiple single-output single-cable interface. This enables the switching fabric and internal tuners of a given media gateway appliance to select any one of the provided user bands and demodulate program content therefrom.
