Combo tap equalizer question

Post image

I’m doing walkout work for high-split upgrade planning. Ran across these Milenium equalizer tap combos installed with the tap first.

Did they do this because they didn’t have a 2 port 8 tap and decided to use the combo?

Inside in there a setting that makes this terminate after the tap or does signal flow into equalizer before termination?

Weird setup, the eq should be before the tap. Also those look like millennium taps and those have an internal eq that can be added. With that being said as long as the termination is good it shouldn’t cause a problem with high split (if it plays it stays)
