CH A P T E R 29-1 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.1 User Guide 29 Monitoring Cable Technologies Cable broadband communication operates in compliance with the Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) standard which prescribes multivendor interoperability and promotes a retail model for the consumers direct purchase of a cable modem (CM) of choice. Figure 29-1 depicts the architecture of the cable broadband in compliance with this standard: Figure 29-1 Cable Broadband Architecture DOCSIS defines two key devices necessary for broadband cable communication: Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS) is a piece of equipment typically located in a cable companys headend or hubsite, and used to provide high speed data services, such as cable Internet or voice over Internet Protocol, to cable subscribers. A CMTS provides many of the same functions provided by the DSLAM in a DSL system. In order to provide these high speed data services, a cable company will connect its headend to the Internet via very high capacity data links to a network
29-2 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.1 User Guide OL-31018-01 Chapter 29 Monitoring Cable Technologies Viewing the Cable Broadband Configuration Details service provider. On the subscriber side of the headend, the CMTS enables the communication with subscribers cable modems. A single CMTS can accommodate thousands of cable modems, and provides the connection point to the Internet backbone. Cable Modem (CM) is a type of network bridge and modem that provides bi-directional data communication via radio frequency channels on a hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) and RFoG infrastructure. Cable modems are primarily used to deliver broadband Internet access in the form of cable Internet, taking advantage of the high bandwidth of a HFC and RFoG network. Usually located at the customer premises, terminates the cable line, and modulates/demodulates signals to and from the CMTS. Data flowing from the CMTS to the Cable Modem is deemed downstream traffic. Data from the Cable Modem to the CMTS is upstream traffic. A DOCSIS binary configuration file provides the appropriate ISP parameters for cable modems to connect to the network. There are two types of CMTS systems, which are explained below: Integrated CMTS (I-CMTS)—In this type of CMTS, the contents of the downstream channel are directly modulated and transmitted by the Downstream RF Port. Modular CMTS (M-CMTS)—In this type of CMTS, the contents of the downstream channel are encapsulated into a DEPI tunnel for transmission. Cisco Systems offers a complete portfolio of standards-based cable products, solutions, and network management systems that enable integration of data, voice, and video services on a single multiservice cable IP network. For information on supported CMTS systems, refer to Cisco Prime Network 4.3 Supported VNEs. These topics describe how to use the Vision client to manage cable networks. If you cannot perform an operation that is described in these topics, you may not have sufficient permissions; see Permissions for Managing Cable Technologies, page B-27.

It interfaces with the DTI Server to provide Time, Frequency and Management interfaces to the Modular Cable Modem Termination System (M-CMTS) device. QAM Domain—Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) domain MAC Domain—A MAC domain is a logical subcomponent of a Cisco CMTS router and is responsible for implementing all DOCSIS functions on a set of downstream and upstream channels. The CMTS MAC domain typically includes one or more downstream paths and one or more upstream paths. Depending on the CMTS configuration, the CMTS MAC domain can be defined to have its downstream on one cable interface line card with its upstreams on another card, or one or more CMTS MAC domains per cable interface line card.
29-3 Cisco Prime Network 4.3.1 User Guide OL-31018-01 Chapter 29 Monitoring Cable Technologies Viewing the Cable Broadband Configuration Details Narrowband Channels—A Narrowband Channel is a logical representation of a non-bonded channel that is a standard DOCSIS 1.x/2.0 protocol downstream channel that contains one RF channel. The wideband protocol utilizes the existing narrowband downstream channel for carrying the MAC management and signaling messages and the associated narrowband upstream for return data traffic and signaling. Wideband Channels—A Wideband Channel or Bonded Group (BG) is a logical grouping of one or more physical RF channels over which MPEG-TS packets are carried. Wideband channel carries DOCSIS bonded packets encapsulated in MPEG-TS packets from a WCMTS to one or more WCMs. The wideband channel, comprising of one or more RF channels on the EQAM device, is used for DS data traffic. The US channels on interface line cards—such as the Cisco uBR-MC3GX60V or Cisco uBR10-MC5X20—are used for US traffic. Fiber Node—A Fiber Node allows the Multiple Server Operator (MSO) or service provider to configure the CMTS to be more intelligent by making Cisco IOS aware of how the cable plant is wired. The downstream channels of the cable plant must be accurately configu r e d i n t h e C M T S fi b e r nodes. This allows the CMTS to accurately signal the wideband modems on which the wideband channels are available to the modem.
