    Are you talking about a UPC wall box? The other connection is for FM radio, I believe there is a filter inside the wall box which ensures that no other signal gets out of that port other than FM stations between 88 and 108 Mhz.

    That's based on my setup which is kosher UPC (i.e. I've not interfered with the wiring). One port from the wall box is connected to a splitter/filter sitting on the ground behind my TV and which branches to Broadband and digital TV, the other port on the wall box is connected to my amp. for FM radio.

    I got some new UPC literature today and it explicitly says that the other port is for FM radio only.
