It is hard to understand your question, but if you are referring to why you cannot get all the channels when you split the cable is becaue you have to have a cable box hooked directly to the TV in order to access all the channels. It is the cable companies way it racking in more money and it works. The cable box is used to decode the signals in order to get access to all the channels.
