1. An amplifier comprising:

  • a first interface operable to exchange signals with a first endpoint;

    a second interface operable to exchange signals with a second endpoint;

    a first amplifier operable to amplify downstream signaling communicated from the first interface to the second interface;

    a second amplifier operable to amplify upstream signaling communicated from the second interface to the first interface;

    a gate operably connected between the first interface and the second interface and controllable between at least a first position and a second position, the first position disabling upstream signaling and the second position enabling upstream signaling; and

    a detector configured to control the gate between the first position and the second position based on presence of a gate-control signal within at least one of the upstream signaling and the downstream signaling.
