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. If you have any other clue on how to solve this please let me know. On 9/25/07, Allen Yu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The Motorola PTP 600 radio support both Ethernet and T1 interface.
