As the communications industry moves rapidly toward open communication, it is introducing new, higher bandwidth services. Providers of communications services must develop new services while continuing to protect their existing revenue. The HFC-2000™ broadband access system, a cost-effective, full service network solution, was designed to address these competitive needs. This paper describes the technology and performance of hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) systems in general and the powerful paradigms offered by the HFC-2000 system.
