## Abstract

Provided are a system, method and device for providing communications to a multiple dwellings.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A device for providing communications to a plurality of units of a building, comprising:
an enclosure;
a plurality of circuit cards disposed in said enclosure and with each circuit card being associated with one of the plurality of units;
a fiber port disposed in said housing and communicatively coupled to each of the plurality of circuit cards;
wherein said fiber port is configured to receive telephone signals, data signals RF, analog, digital, wireless, WiFi, MiFi, WiMAx, and television signals;
wherein each circuit card comprises:
an upstream port (edge connector) configured to receive telephone signals, data signals, RF, analog, digital, wireless, WiFi, MiFi, WiMAx, and television signals from said fiber port;
a coaxial port configured to communicate signals over a coaxial cable;
a twisted pair port configured to communicate signals over a twister pair conductor; and
a processor configured to receive to receive telephone signals, data signals, RF, analog, digital, wireless, WiFi, MiFi, WiMAx and television signal; from the fiber port and wherein said processor is configurable to provide the telephone signals to the twisted pair port and to provide the data signals and the television signals to the coaxial cable port.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The device of claim 1, further comprising:
a power supply for supplying power to the plurality of circuit cards;
a fan for moving air in the enclosure;
one or more vents in the enclosure; and
a lockable enclosure door.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The device of claim 1, wherein each circuit card further comprises:
an Ethernet port in communication with said processor;
a test port in communication with said processor; and
a fiber port in communication with said processor, wherein said processor is configurable to provide the telephone signals, the data signals RF, analog, digital, wireless, WiFi, MiFi, WiMAx and the television signals to fiber port.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The device of claim 1, wherein said processor is configurable to provide the telephone signals to the twisted pair port and to not provide the data signals RF, analog, digital, wireless, WiFi, MiFi, WiMAx and the television signals to the coaxial cable port.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The device of claim 1, wherein each circuit card comprises a memory storing configuration data used by said processor to determine what data received by said upstream port to supply to said coaxial port and said twisted pair port.
