Re: Now comes with twice as many crap channels as before!

All they are doing is putting in 3Ghz passives. In other words, mainline splitters and taps. The plant is still at the mercy of their actives (amplifiers), which stated is 1 Ghz. It'll be a while before they start mass producing 3 Gig amps.

Phoenix, AZ		 The attenuation that 3ghz signal would cause would require all plant to be rebuilt to compensate....

It' can get bad enough on a 750 plant I would hate to be at the end of a line on a 3ghz plant....

 Correct.

Now to another point. I think sometimes that people need to stop reading b2b press releases for their information. The 3ghz gear is trying to be pushed to gain sales. It's a pure business move of someone trying to hawk their gear. In the real world, as to where it means anything to the consumer, it's not being implemented because it's a huge mess for cable operators to implement. (as you said above)

This just brings us back to the "it works in the lab, but lets see it in the field" point.

Wasn't Cox talking about deploying that on just a "few select" plant runs? Mainly bushiness areas to bring down the costs to service medium businesses?
