Nice that there is not tv channels to worry about. You can use the whole
usable bandwidth for DOCSIS data channels. So even if it is crappy and
restricted to 300 MHz or so, you could still run a killer DOCSIS system on
that.

The first thing to do is to find out what condition the outside coax plant
is. Once you know that you can start finding out what
upgrades/changes/replacements you need to do to convert it to a DOCSIS
system.
If it's in bad shape, consider replacing the coax with fiber in situ:

Subject: [AFMUG] Cable Systems
We have an opportunity to acquire usage rights to a cable system that
supplies 300 plus mobile homes. We plan to just inject internet (no TV).
There will be no head end equipment provided to us (currently off site at
the cable companies office), therefore just the cable in the ground and the
amplifiers. I know nothing about cable and want to know if it would be a
good idea to take this on. I.e. what we would need to buy, head end stuff,
boxes in the homes etc. Our plan would be to add a cabinet next to the
cable head end and bring bandwidth to the site via a backhaul link.
Thoughts ideas?
Anyone out there with cable experience willing to take a call to discuss
this?
Thanks
Adam
