On the downstream side either 64QAM or 256QAM is possible, with 256QAM being the usual case. Both occupy 6MHz of spectrum.
On the upstream either QPSK or 16QAM may be employed with 200Khz, 400KHz, 800KHz, 1.6MHz, or 3.2MHz of spectrum being used.

CableLabs maintains the list of modems that are compatible with DOCSIS®, CableHome® and PacketCable™ specifications.
The Certified Modem List is a large PDF file.

Currently, there are 3 different version specifications for DOCSIS. DOCSIS 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0. DOCSIS standards are set by CableLabs »www.cablelabs.com
The most common implementation is DOCSIS 1.0, while 2.0 is still in the development stages.
For details on the different CableModem/DOCSIS specs, please see »www.cablemodem.com/
