| | Cadant Uses APEX 20KE Devices to Achieve Wire-Speed Processing in Cable Modem Termination System (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15) |
 | | Key challenges in supporting broadband cable services are providing differentiated service, accommodating new users and new applications, and maintaining a reliable, high-performance service. |
 | | To meet these challenges, the major cable system companies, referred to as multiple system operators (MSOs), have implemented a standard technical specification called the data over cable service interface specification (DOCSISTM 1.1), which increasingly requires quality of service (QoS) features and high-reliability, high-availability infrastructures, including new-generation cable modem termination systems (CMTSs). |
 | | A combination of programmable logic and a high-performance processor satisfies these requirements, allowing cable modem manufacturers such as Cadant, Inc. the option to easily modify their product designs and the products themselves, if needed, to meet changing conditions. |
