DOCSIS 3.1: Begin Preparing Now Posted on September 11, 2013 by Carl Weinschenk-BTR Experts believe that DOCSIS 3.1 is few years off. The specification has not yet been finalized. After that, test and early customer premise equipment (CPE) and corresponding CMTS and CCAP line cards will be sprinkled through systems. The bottom line is that it will be a long time until DOCSIS 3.1 is an element of everyday cable operations. So preparations should start now. The industry has been down this road before. What seems like a long road, with
