Re: [WISPA] Cable network for Internet, VoIP and Video distribution
Javier, If I'm understanding the question correctly, which is basically "Can I send DOCSIS over IP networks (wireless or otherwise), the answer is no. If you think about it in terms of OSI model, it will become a little clearer--the CMTS use a QAM to read the RF signal and pull the Ethernet frames (this is layer one / layer two); your basically asking if that information can be encapsulated inside of a layer-3 IP packet (and the answer is no). There are DOCSIS over wireless solutions (look at various "wireless plant extensions" for more detail) that basically shove the RF out over wireless instead of out the HFC plant, but that doesn't seem to be what you're looking for... What problem are you trying to solve? I'm assuming there is some reason why you aren't just using IP wireless links directly to the customers -Clint Ricker Kentnis Technologies On 9/25/07, Javier Arigita <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The CMTS does have ethernet interface.

Re: [WISPA] Cable network for Internet, VoIP and Video distribution
The CMTS does have ethernet interface. The problem is the distribution of the video data and voice. The CMTS seem to have an IF (intermediate frecuency) interfaces and coaxial interfaces. The IF if is meant to transmit the CMTS "signal" over wireless links (not IP ones of course), the coax ifs do the same over coax lines. I would like to transmit that "signal" using IP wireless links (such as Alv B100 or whatever) to other areas. If we do not manage to do that we will have to install one CMTS for each area and that is really expensive. Many Thanks for your responses.

Re: [WISPA] Cable network for Internet, VoIP and Video distribution
The Motorola PTP 600 radio support both Ethernet and T1 interface. Not sure which CMTS you are refer to, but the compact CMTS/Router does have Ethernet interface, does that combination will work?

Re: [WISPA] Cable network for Internet, VoIP and Video distribution
If they're only going to use 1 CMTS then you must get wireless links that shoot video, which will pretty much kill any IP wireless links in the area running on the same channel. A CMTS usually must have a management server for provisioning & management, so you could buy several cheaper CMTSs (I purchased a used Nortel/Arris CMTS1000 years ago and it's never had a hiccup) and place them at each site, linking them to the management server via wireless links. I've also investingated DOCSIS wireless radios (they'll just do the data part). The problem with all this is if you don't have some kind of circuits (wired or wireless) between the sites, then you'll have to have feeds for all the channels you're going to provide at each location. Depending on mileage, you may be able to use dry copper circuits. I know that some of this can be done over T-1 circuits, but the project I'm involved in didn't go that route, so I never spent too much time on it. Hope this helps.

Re: [WISPA] tower site monitoring help
But other than the battery monitor feature, what part of the BNDCOM unit justifies nearly twice the price of the other unit? Just trying to learn. We had looked at the BNDCOM unit and were turned off by the price. And as a small nit to pic, the mini server unit comes in a box, more ready to use. - Original Message - From: "Mike Delp" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'WISPA General List'" Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2007 9:15 AM Subject: RE: [WISPA] tower site monitoring help Mac, We have one of these sitting on my desk, creating all of the functionality for it.

My guess would be (from 8+ years of experience with this town) that college students are using whatever bandwidth is available at any given second. When we provided service to 15 college apartment complexes many years ago, it was a joke. Some students would queue up 100 songs to be downloaded and then just let it run all day while they were gone to class. It didn't matter how much bandwidth you gave a complex, they would use 100% of it. You are also forgetting that although WiMax may be available in 100 cities around the country, unless you have service in every one of those coverage areas, you will get to pay again. Compared with Sprint or AT&T, in which I can pay $60/month and have coverage everywhere at the same speed... (and like Brad mentioned, be moving down the freeway at the same time). Also, is there a set frequency that WiMax uses? In my area, they are using 2.3ghz. Is that the same all over the country? Is that the frequency that Intel will build into their chips?

[WISPA] Cable network for Internet, VoIP and Video distribution
One of my customers is designing a Cable operator network for several estate areas. They plan to use a Motorola CMTS device to serve those areas. The areas are not connected by fiber and the problem they are facing is the way to extend the CMTS service to those areas. They have think in PTP radio links but the CMTS devices are not IP, so they should use 1 CMTS for each area and that is very expensive. Is there any way to extend the CMTS coverage to this areas by using PTP IP radio links?
