CableLabs Bonds Over DOCSIS 3.0

摘要

Modularization and channel bonding are the big news in the next revision of Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) 3.0, which is likely to be in operator labs sometime this year and in products in 2006. The new spec is arriving just as the telcos are pushing fiber-to-the-prem-ises and promises to provide cable with a competitive weapon. DOCSIS 3.0 has a minimum throughput of 160 Mbps with no fixed upper limit, said CableLabs CTO Ralph Brown.
