2. Cable converter box - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_Converter_Box

   A cable converter box or television converter box is an electronic tuning device that transposes/converts channels from a cable television service to an analog RF signal on a single channel, usually VHF channel 3 or 4, or to a different output for digital televisions such as HDMI.

3. Analog television - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_television

   In an analog television broadcast, the brightness, colors and sound are represented by amplitude, phase and frequency of an analog signal. Analog signals vary over a continuous range of possible values which means that electronic noise and interference may be introduced. Thus with analog, a moderately weak signal becomes snowy and subject to ...

4. Signal strength in telecommunications - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_strength_in...

   For very low-power systems, such as mobile phones, signal strength is usually expressed in dB-microvolts per metre (dBμV/m) or in decibels above a reference level of one milliwatt . In broadcasting terminology, 1 mV/m is 1000 μV/m or 60 dBμ (often written dBu). Examples. 100 dBμ or 100 mV/m: blanketing interference may occur on some receivers

5. Attenuator (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attenuator_(electronics)

   An attenuator is a passive broadband electronic device that reduces the power of a signal without appreciably distorting its waveform. An attenuator is effectively the opposite of an amplifier , though the two work by different methods.

9. Attenuation-to-crosstalk ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attenuation-to-crosstalk_ratio

   Positive ACR calculations mean that transmitted signal strength is stronger than that of near-end crosstalk. [4] ACR can be used to define a signal bandwidth (e.g. 250 MHz for category 6 cable) where signal to noise ratios are sufficient to support certain applications. [4]
