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

What this does is add quite a bit of capacity to the cable system. It doubles downstream capacity and adding four times the amount of upstream bandwidth.[Depending on how it is setup .] The other part about it, is that it will work with existing equipment. There is some work needed, like amps and cable taps changed to a 3 Ghz capable one, and some equipment at the headend will have to be added.

This would add room for quite a bit of HD, faster internet, and more channels without upgrading to FTTP.
It is also considerable less, $125 per home passed, vs. $1,500 - $2,000 for FTTP.
