Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0169933A1] A residential gateway (RG) (200) for distributing video, data and telephony services to multiple devices within a residence is disclosed. The RG (200) receives signals from a telecommunications network, converts the signals to formats compatible with the multiple devices, and transmits the appropriate signals to the appropriate devices. Wireless remote control devices associated with the remotely located televisions (TVs) (199) transmit channel select commands as wireless signals to the RG (200). The wireless signals are received by a Remote Antennae Package (RAP) (900) that transmits the wireless signal over cable. A remote Antennae Module (RAM) (920) receives the wireless signal and extracts the channel select command.
