Super-ring architecture and method to support high bandwidth digital amp;ldquo;last mileamp;rdquo; telecommunications systems for unlimited video addressability in hub/star local loop architectures
A communications system is provided which includes a regional ring with a plurality of local nodes, each local node including at least one fiber interface device and at least one Local Node interface device for connection to a global electrical and fiber network. The Local Node interface device connects to a user interface device through a cable. The system may include a “super ring” or “super branch” to service an even larger number of subscribers than a regional ring alone. In these embodiments, a global backbone may extend past and be spliced into an switch transfer point, which is in turn connected to a super ring or branch. The super ring or branch is then connected in turn to a number of regional rings or branches.
