• Simple integration outdoor or indoor. 
• Plug and play device.
• Best performance in the market.
• Drop amplifier integration.

Safecom's new IngressGate™ is a revolutionary cost-effective ingress suppression technology that enables CATV operators to increase upstream bandwidth and add advanced services with no interference .  Unlike standard solutions for ingress detection and monitoring, Safecom's patent-pending technology eliminates 70-90% of the ingress noise by addressing the source of the problem where most ingress noise is created - at the customer premises.

How it works?

Safeom's patent-pending technology is based on the burst nature of the return path and the random presence of ingress noise. The technology functions as a upstream gateway that allows carrier signals from customer premises into the network only when the home devices are actively transmitting. This mode of operation eliminates most of the ingress noise without any adverse effect on the upstream and downstream signals.  Safecom's Ingress gate ™ (patent p) technology supports DOCSIS 3.0 that requires switching speed faster than 1.6 μS and ensures the most reliable and cost effecting solution for upstream ingress noise.

For improving system implementation and reducing cost integrated ingress protection drop amplifier enables the simplest way to resolve the ingress problems while at the same time saving the need for additional common drop amplifiers. Safecom offer range of Ingress gate solutions with or /without RF gain at the upstream /downstream.
