Scaling Bandwidth and Services Using Channel Bonding

Tags:
bandwidth issues

Overview Competition for subscribers has never been fiercer, as telcos increasingly deploy higher-speed services aimed at stealing not only residential data subscribers, but also residential video subscribers, away from cable operators. DSL technologies are now able to provide beyond 50 Mbps of bandwidth, and fiber-to-the home initiatives offer even greater bandwidth potential for both video and data services. CableLabs, through its member cable operators, established the DOCSIS 3.0 Channel Bonding Initiative. The goal of this initiative is to develop a standardized approach to bond multiple physical channels into a single, virtual, high-bandwidth channel. This is achieved by inverse multiplexing multiple RF channels to create a single logical channel.
