DOCSIS 3.1 Overview

!  Faster speeds – downstream and upstream

!  Better spectral efficiency (more bits per Hz)

!  Higher modulation orders (4096-QAM)

!  Expanded DS and US spectrum

!  Better error correction

!  Performance optimization per CM

According to CableLabs:

“DOCSIS 3.1 technology will enable a new generation of cable services and help operators continue to meet consumer demand for high speed connections and sophisticated applications, positioning them to be the providers of choice in their markets.”

cBR-8 Software Architecture Intelligence, Elastic and Resilient

CISCO

IOS-XE

!  Next generation, retains advantages of IOS and adds modularity, resiliency, restartability and patchability:

!  Process Separation: DOCSIS and Video processes operate independently

!  Highly intelligent with full IOS-XE routing and DOCSIS features

!  Operational Consistency - same look and feel as IOS Router

!  Restartability ensures failure recovery with Zero DOCSIS packet loss and minimal Video packet loss

!  Patchability enables true hitless upgrades

!  SDN functionality improves Service Velocity

DOCSIS Control Plane v 1.0 has new software patch release v 1.1 code available. V1.1 code has been downloaded and is ready to replace the v1.0 code

1 Separation between control plane and data plane

2 Control plane is now running with new v 1.1 code
