RF distribution

[Josh Scott]

I am trying to add some TV to our rf modulator in our production room. What is the best way to split and amplify. The runs will be over 200'.

The only way to assess the 'best' way would be to know what already exists and the details of what you want to do. You may already have a splitter in place or a trunk run to which you could add taps. You may have sufficient signal level or not. It's difficult to address what additions or modifications might be best without knowing quite a bit more about what you already have.

Looking at the set-up (no one knows for sure what we have I am trying to figure that out right now), we have Coaxial cable going from our production room to our Telco room. This is the room that as all the cables from the East side of our building, which from what I can find is only as jack in our north and south atriums. All the cabling is RG-59. We have never used any of it, it was installed when the building was put in.

We currently have an RF modulator that takes a feed off our switcher. This is split and one run goes to our green room (we added this after the building was put up), the other run goes to the telco room. The room we are going to does not have a cable pulled we will have to pull one. It looks like it was set up for the telco room to be the hub with come kind of splitter/amplifier, just not sure what I need that will work well.
