Spanish term or phrase: cabecera
I know it's appeared a lot in ProZ, but what exactly is it in this sentence:
La red de distribución tiene su inicio en la salida de la *cabecera* y finaliza en las tomas, tendrá una topología árbol-estrella, principalmente en derivación, para poder equilibrar los niveles de señal entre las tomas y proporcionar desacoplo suficiente entre derivaciones.
