The new DOCSIS 3.1 spec will bring with it a host of advantages for the cable operator in both speed and bandwidth. However, DOCSIS 3.1 roll-outs will not be “plug and play” easy in all cases.

This is a FREE event
Join BTR and a panel of industry experts for the DOCSIS 3.1 command performance tech breakfast, where you’ll find out what’s changed since last year, where things are headed, and what to watch out for in the months to come.

Attendees Will Learn:
The current state of play with DOCSIS 3.1
What to expect in the coming year
How to prep both plant and technical staff for the transition
What benefits and enhancements does DOCSIS 3.1 bring compared to earlier versions of DOCSIS?
What plant improvements or changes might be necessary to support DOCSIS 3.1? Are there shortcuts or work-arounds?
What are test equipment vendors doing to support the new specification?
What is DOCSIS 3.1? How will it “roll out” in the operator community? What are steps along the way?
When can cable operators expect DOCSIS-compliant CMTSs and modems to be available?

The breakfast will be hosted by BTR Publisher & Founder Tim Hermes.
