An entry device includes an entry port configured to receive cable television (CATV) signals from a headend. The entry device also includes a filter connected to the entry port. The entry device also includes a plurality of first output ports and a plurality of second output ports. The entry device also includes a first path connecting the filter to the first output ports. The first path is configured to have the CATV signals and multimedia over coax alliance (MoCA) signals pass bidirectionally therethrough. The entry device also includes a second path connecting the filter to the second output ports. The second path is configured to have the MoCA signals pass bidirectionally therethrough and to block the CATV signals from passing therethrough.

An automatic RF combiner receives signals from an over-the-air antenna, a cable television signal source and at least two satellite antennae, and combines the signals for output to one or more television receivers. The combiner includes a first signal combiner connected to the input for the over-the-air antenna and the cable television signal source and providing an output signal. The output from the first signal combiner is supplied to a second signal combiner together with signal at the input for the at least two satellite antenna. A conflict module prevents conflicts from more than one antenna being connected at an input. A switch or filter is connected between the input for the over-the-air antenna and the first signal combiner, and a logic controller is connected between the input for the cable television signal source and the switch or filter that is configured and operable to open the switch or activate the filter when a signal is detected at the input for the cable television signal source, and to close the switch or deactivate the filter when no signal is detected, thereby controlling whether the over-the-air signal passes to the first signal combiner

The present disclosure is directed to a passive, enhanced MoCA entry device. The entry device includes an entry port, a broadband port, high-band ports, and a filter device. The entry device also includes a broadband path connecting the entry port to the broadband port and a high-band path connecting the entry port to the plurality of high-band ports. The filter device generates a broadband signal and a high-band signal. The filter device provides the broadband signal to broadband port via the broadband path. And, the filter device provides the high-band signal to the high-band ports via the high-band path.

An audio device includes a signal input interface, a first output interface, a second output interface, at least one processing circuit configured as a buffer control portion, at least one memory configured to store an audio signal. The buffer control portion sets a second reading position at a position that precedes a first reading position of the first output interface by delay time, and, when starting output of the audio signal, writes silent data for the delay time in the memory and sets the first reading position at the head of the silent data.
