Yeah chuck: We have been looking into this for some time, Cisco has you thinking it's new but it aint. You use existing phone jacks and wiring and a little box figures it all out. One freq for data one for voice on the same wire. There is a standard called home-phone/rf (or some such thing I forget) I could get the name if you want. The driving datalink for us is DOCSIS to the MDU or Institution or even a SFD (single family dwelling w/multiple connections) but then what to do to reach the cpe, options are; Extend the HFC to the set-top (ie. cable TV). "NAAA" Wireless through the facility. ""Well maybe, we'll see" "I think dinosaurs have blue-teeth but c'mon 802.11"" Use existing phone wiring. " I like!!!!!" (without affecting existing voice calls (and run data and voice simultaneous)) (LRE) To: Sent: Monday, December 31, 2001 11:11 AM Subject: OT: Cisco LRE ( Long Reach Ethernet ) [7:30553]
