CMTS Components • Switch / router routes the traffic between cable modems and to the external network. It interfaces to CMTS via the terminator (term). • Modulator (mod) and demodulator (demod) transform digital data from and to analog format. • Combiner and splitter and filter perform the complimentary functions of mux’ing and demuxing. • Transmitter converts the RF signals to optical carrier; receiver down-converts the optical signal. • Servers handle the applications and databases. • Security is managed by the security and access controller. • OSS and element manager perform network and service management. MJ 11/0704 16
CMTS Components • Three groups of interfaces: • Data interfaces • Cable modem to CPE (1) • CMTS-NSI (2) • Operations support systems and telco-return • OSS (3) • Telco-return (4) • RF and security • DOCS security system (5) • RF interface (6) MJ 11/0704 17
