1. A system for providing access to a higher data transmission rate channel and a lower data transmission rate channel present on a communications trunk, the system comprising:
- an integral transmission line integrated into a premises served by the communications trunk;
a digital wireless distribution system for communicating the lower data transmission rate channel at the premises, the digital wireless distribution system configured with a multiple channel format;
a splitter associated with a termination of the communications trunk, the splitter configured to separate the higher data transmission rate channel for transmission over the integral transmission line and the lower data transmission rate channel for transmission over the digital wireless distribution system; and
an alarm system in communication with the lower data transmission rate channel.

Abstract
A method and device for distributing both high-speed data service, such as digital computer, video and multimedia data, and lower speed data service, such as POTS voice telephone signals, throughout a customer premises. High-speed digital data and lower speed POTS voice signals are separated by a POTS splitter and distributed throughout the customer premises on separate distribution networks. The lower speed POTS is carried on a wireless distribution network and the high-speed data carried on the existing customer premises wiring ordinarily used for POTS.
