A method and system for distributing multimedia signals to a subscriber (14) from a headend unit (12). The multimedia signals are transmitted on a network media as an RF signal. The RF signal is fed to an input terminal (50) of a tap (20) which has an RF circuit (58) that splits the RF signal and distributes to an output terminal (52). The RF circuit (58) splits the RF signals, and feeds the split signal to a plurality of connectors (30-36) on the tap's front panel (70). The RF signals on the output terminal (52) are fed downstream to a plurality of subscribers (14). A switch (42) is placed in the tap such that when the RF circuit (58) is removed for repair, maintenance or service, an electrical connection is maintained between the input (50) and output (52) terminal to prevent a disconnection of service downstream.
