I *think* the splitter needs to be rated up to 2GHz but I don't remember exactly - its been about 5 years since I had cabe Internet. |
Have to correct a few things here.
The downstream channel is a regular channel slot, below ~850MHz. Mine is currently running at 579MHz. The upstream channel, as Iceberg mentioned above, is below ~50Mhz. Any splitter rated to 900Mhz will work, and that includes all of them. I've never seen one that isn't rated to at least that.
