By Dr. Robert Howald, Jon Cave & Olakunle Ekundare, Comcast; John Williams & Matt Petersen, Charter Communications

In this paper, Comcast and Charter will provide a unified point of view on the rapidly approaching cycle of DOCSIS 4.0 upgrades. We will address:

  • Implementation options in DOCSIS 4.0, including Full Duplex/FDX and Extended Spectrum/FDD
  • Common use cases, with guidance on how DOCSIS 4.0 options may be applied
  • The range of network variables and anticipated impacts
  • How key dependent variables may drive evolution path decision criteria
  • The complementary nature of the technologies

This is a useful and timely session for all operators, suppliers, and industry partners interested in how DOCSIS 4.0 will shape tomorrow, as envisioned by engineering leads of two largest cable operators in North America.
