2 edits | hmm I read an article on CES about something like this. They stated that the main thing that is stopping cable companies from switching is that there is no equipment that would let them switch over in steps. I think they said it would require hardware that would allow both docsis via coax and the ftth fiber on the same hardware.
If cisco can come out with something like that thats not really expensive they would make tons of money.
Does this mean that as long as they switched the coax to fiber but still used docsis 3 that they can do a 1Gbps cablemodem?
Nevermind, the article states further down this is basically PON using the accounting software that cablecompanies use currently. this is stupid.
Why cant cisco just work on what I said at the begining of my post. Just create a device that allows the node to be both PON and Coaxial Docsis so that the cablecompanies can slowly switch over away from their docsis network. |
