Cable Applications: Converging the Network at Layer 2 While Delivering Profitable Voice, Video, and Data Services

Overview In recent years, cable operators have delivered many new profitable data services to subscribers by upgrading their hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) networks.

The new Cisco 10/100 Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet ML-Series line cards, running the proven, feature-rich Cisco IOS Software, are delivering packet multiplexing and quality of service (QoS) features on the Cisco ONS 15454 Multiservice Provisioning Platform (MSPP).
