The CVT-2/8WB and C-0333 are 8-output amplified splitters with a built-in
combiner for modulated signals. They allow IR signals to pass through the
modulator input to the TV outputs, making it a perfect match for the
E2200IR, E3200IR or E4200IR. The CVT-2/8WB is designed to mount
directly on any flat surface, while the C-0333 can snap directly into a
structured wiring enclosure.
Features:
!8 Amplified outputs: 4.5dB Gain
!Amplified return path from 5-42MHz
!Compatible with Advanced Wide Bandwidth Digital CATV systems
!Supports 1 modulator input
!Allows IR pass through on the modulator input port
!Easy installation

in the house. The CVT-2/8WB will supply the amplified TV signal to 8 TV
locations.

Cascaded Application with IR Control
The IR engine built into the E2200IR, E3200IR, and E4200IR can support up
to 8 TV locations with IR receivers. Note: any TV location that does not have
IR receiver needs to be DC blocked using model 3109.
Large System Amplified Splitter Application
The CVT-2/8WB can be cascaded for situations that require more than 8
outputs. Each of the 8 outputs of the CVT-2/8WB can feed the input of an
additional CVT-2/8WB creating a system with 64 TV outputs.

Using the CVT-2/8WB with the Affinity (P-0321)
The CVT-2/8WB can be integrated with the P-0321 to send modulated signals
through a system that has some TVs with digital cable boxes and some TVs
without digital cable boxes. An RF filter can be used to remove the digital
content from the TVs which do not have digital boxes. This allows modulated
channels to be inserted without interference problems. The P-0321 preserves
the digital content for the locations that do have digital boxes. Additional details
regarding the operation of the Affinity model P-0321 can be found in its
installation manual.
