| Only "Casa Systems" have official upstream DS3Bonding today 08:56AM Monday Mar 30 2009 by Karl Bode said:"Interestingly, Arris says they've completed the first 160Mbps deployment of DOCSIS 3.0 in Japan, and the first deployment of upstream channel bonding (though they don't specify what upstream speeds they're offering).
It sounds like Arris is just pushing for bragging rights --..."
Sure they are (i got my vendors mixed up elswere so sorry for that...), you do Know that "Casa Systems" and their C2200 CMTS are still the only DS3 vendor to actually get official Docsis3 gold/Full/final certification, as in all the bells, including Upstream Bonding certification as of right now , dont you ?
Arris (C4 CMTS), and Cisco (uBR 10012 CMTS) only have "Bronze", as in download bonding only ,NO official upstream Bonding CableLabs certifiaction to date |

Lakeville, MA | To add to Pip's comment....Casa Systems has three CMTSs that have received FULL DOCSIS 3.0 qualification from CableLabs. The only CMTSs in the world to have passed the testing. Arris can make any claims that they want about the first FULL DOCSIS 3.0 network in the world...but that does not make it the first. The CASA C3200 CMTS has been deployed commercially in Sweden using both downstream and upstream channel bonding since December of 2008. Press releases don't make you first... "actions do". |
