System Description

Nowadays there are several available broadband access networks using different mediums, such as telephone line, power line, CATV coaxial cable, and so on. Specifically, CATV Coaxial Cable network is the most suitable and ideal network access medium for subscribers with the advantages of wider bandwidth, better shielded wiring, higher accessibility and richer contents. By leveraging the existing coaxial cable network, subscribers can enjoy a digital entertainment service brought to home like HDTV, IPTV, VoIP, on-line game, etc.

Cable Express is a total solution that provides broadband access over CATV HFC network. By using the latest digital technology "MOCA" (Multimedia over Coax Alliance), Cable Express transmits and receives signals at frequency from 800 to 1500MHz above cable modems and cable TV's signal in order to coexist with devices on the same coaxial cable without interference to TV sets, cable modems, set-top boxes or other customer terminal devices. Cable Express improves the existing CATV HFC network to a bi-directional, digitalized and broadband access platform that can be used to transfer Video, Voice and Data service together in one coaxial cable. It will greatly increase the competitiveness of MSO.
