Overview 2-15
MB*/* Installation and Operation Manual
Model Description Function
ICS
Ingress Control Switch This option enables remote monitoring, isolation, and
reduction of ingress on the return path by providing
signal attenuation of 6 dB or cutoff of 38 dB typical. The
unit is shipped with a jumper in this location.
SP or DC/*
Output passives These options should be installed in place of the JMP
jumper to activate the third output of the MB*/*.
JXP-RPC
Return Path Correction Board This optional board provides additional flatness
response correction in the return path for systems that
must meet especially stringent return-path flatness
requirements.
MBP-HSG
Bypass housing This housing accommodates the signal bypass jumper,
which prevents transmission loss to subscribers during
maintenance and upgrades.
