 nh5 join:2006-01-21 Old Bethpage, NY | CV Cablevision is not yet ready for this I hate how they always say they are ready for stuff but yet their network can't even handle their current subscriber base. Right now you if you have OOL boost you can't even get your full 30mbps at all times of the day. Proving that they can not handle the load. They best upgrade their network first so they can compete without problems.
Also to the person who said Docsis 3 has a max download of 343mbps it can actually only handle 160mbps by bonding 4 channels together.
Fiber would be the better choice for cable to go. They have the resources. I would hope that cv is splitting up nodes and adding more for the step to Docsis 3 since they can not currently handle this. |

 1 edit | thats not true. the docsis 3 spec can handle a max of 8 bonded channels not 4. Current hardware i think only is capable of 4 but the actual spec allows 8.

that is a pdf i found on the spec. I actually dont think there is a real limit on the amount of channels that can be bonded .I think its a network/hardware limitation not a spec limitation. |

 | Ground Control to Major Tom, lets face it fiber is the end-game- it's future proof as far as wired service goes-although i'm sure after these "upgrades" cablvision will have all kinds of uncompressed HD channels and blistering internet service, sort of like my current Fios service. Ah yeah. |

 1 edit | I do not work for cablevision but iam tired of all the wrong info being spread around. PS I have a verizon business fiber conenction at work thats allways going down and thats getting replaced but a much better long island fiber connection so i am not against fiber.
The problem is that people keep perpetuating this lie that coax cant offer these good speeds. IT can heck the docsis 3 spec goes all the way up to 320 down and says it can go up to gigabit speeds so obviously coax isnt as bad as people think.
People are believing verizons marketing.
If i have to ill post straight from the docsis 3 specs from cablelabs documentation which is available from their website. |
