Abstract

The present invention is directed to a system that includes a front-end interface device having a first front-end interface port, a second front-end interface port and a third front-end interface port. The front-end interface device is configured to split a first signal directed into the first front-end interface port into a second signal provided at the second front-end interface port and a third signal provided at the third front-end interface port. An N-way high-band device includes a first high-band device port coupled to the second front-end interface port and N second high band ports. An N-way low-band device includes a first low-band device port coupled to the third front-end interface port and N-second low band ports. N back-end interface devices are coupled to the N-way high-band device and the N-way low-band device.
