I can help with the ACC2000 / ACC4000 as we make a replacement known as the SCS1000 works like the ACC2000 but has a windows based OS.. note does NOT have Two way or IPPV..

If possible, I need to know where they were used geographically, and which companies operated them if prior to Virgin Media. Also, is there anywhere that they are still operational in the UK?
And most importantly, does anyone know where I could source this equipment which includes, the Jerrold decoder (550 Model), the MVP encryption units, and the Jerrold Addressable Control Computer (ACC-2000)?
Alot of this equipment would have been decommisioned from Cable headends, during the Analogue to Digital changeover.
Thanks!

As a note we can repair ACC4000 or replace if needed.

We have no financial prospect of delivering a Digital Platform for quite some time and we're trying maintain the network we have.
I've been able to source MVP's from Japan ( who use PAL-I) and an ACC from the states, and have been sourcing decoders from NTL/chorus here in Ireland, but I can no longer get them. The UK is obviously PAL-I like ourselves so I'm sure there is a warehouse somewhere with these units simply waiting to be dumped which we'd be more than willing to take off their hands.
