Re: Legal P2P will be fostered; illegal P2P will be punished Speaking of node architecture. Its interesting most CMTSes are built around a shared design of the downstream link, 4 nodes use an identical downstream channel, but each node has a different upstream. The CMTS has 4 upstream ports, and 1 downstream. So the upload may pass 100 houses, while the downstream passes 400. I'm not sure if this is just 1990s thinking or downstreams are really never used and its always upload that is maxed out. |
