There is disclosed an integrated system for converting content provided by an operator of multiple cable television systems (e.g. a MSO) to content suitable for distribution within a multi-dwelling unit (MDU). A chassis is provided comprising slots for receiving cableCARDs, an input for receiving a cable feed, and an output for transmitting the RF signal. Circuitry within the chassis is configured to extract selected encrypted programs from the cable feed, forward these encrypted programs to the cableCARDs for decryption, and encrypt the decrypted programs using an encryptor such as a Pro:Idiom™encryptor. A control unit is provided for controlling the operation of at least some of the circuitry within the chassis. The control unit is responsive to instructions sent over a network cable to allow for remote control of the circuitry.
