Device for dispatching video and/or audio signals between several receivers
First Claim
1. Device for dispatching signals between several receivers, which is intended to be mounted in an installation comprising a main television receiver (1), a standard antenna (4) for signal reception combined with a distributor (5) for transmitting an antenna signal to the main receiver by way of a coaxial connection cable (6) and towards at least one auxiliary television receiver (7), locally separated from the main receiver, and at least one additional source (12) of baseband signal, which is independent of the reception antenna, a dispatcher unit (14) receiving the antenna signal in order to transmit them to the main receiver as well as the additional baseband signal received from the additional source, a bypass unit (15) mounted on the coaxial connection cable between the antenna and the dispatcher unit in order to avoid the return, towards the antenna reflected signals from the dispatcher unit and, to allow transmission thereof towards the auxiliary receiver through an additional coaxial cable (9) and an incoming unit (16), the latter receiving the reflected signals from the dispatcher unit through the bypass unit in order to transmit them to the auxiliary receiver.

Abstract
Device for dispatching video and/or audio signals to several receivers. A typical installation has a main television receiver (1), optically coupled to a video recorder (2), and a standard antenna (4) for video and/or audio signal reception. A distributor (5) transmits these signals to the main receiver and to at least one auxiliary television receiver (7), and is coupled to at least one additional source (912) of baseband video and/or audio signals, which is independent of the reception antenna. The device has a dispatcher unit (14) which receives the antenna signals and transmits them to the main receiver directly, or through the video recorder, and receives the baseband video and/or audio signals from the independent source. A bypass unit (15) is mounted on a coaxial connection cable (6) between the antenna and the dispatcher unit in order to both avoid return signal towards the antenna of the signals received from this dispatcher unit, and also to allow their transmission towards the auxiliary receiver through an additional coaxial cable (9). An incoming unit (16) receives signals from the dispatcher unit through the bypass unit and transmits them to the auxiliary receiver.
