Impedance-matched interface for broadband data service provisioning

A method of providing broadband data services to a subscriber, comprising:

• forming a junction of a first set of communication cables and a second set of communication cables,
• said first set of communication having a first impedance and being communicatively connected to a central office,
• said second set of communication cables having an impedance approximately equal to said first impedance of said first set of communication cables, said second set of communication cables being communicatively connected to at least one customer premises equipment unit;
• providing a broadband data signal to said junction of said first and second set of communication cables from a broadband distribution unit located at said junction of said first and second communication cables, said broadband data signal being transmitted to a subscriber via said second set of communication cables.

A servicing area interface, comprising:

• a cross-connect box having a first set of terminals and a second set of terminals, said first set of terminals being operably connected to a plurality of cable pairs in an F1 distribution cable bundle, said second set of terminals being operably connected to a plurality of cable pairs in an F2 distribution cable bundle;
• a plurality of connectors for establishing electrical junctions between predetermined pairs of said first set of terminals and said second set of terminals;
• and
• a broadband distribution unit operable to provide a broadband data signal, said broadband distribution unit being connected to a plurality of predetermined junctions between said first set of terminals and said second set of terminals.
