Broadband Cable TV Access Networks: From Technologies to Applications Book
In Broadband Cable TV Access Networks: From Technologies to Applications, Intel Corporation expert Shlomo Ovadia explains cable television networks' operations for the benefit of network designers, operations engineers and people engaged in designing cable modems and other equipment. Cable television networks, because they have an enormous capacity to transmit analogue and digital information and reach into almost every Western home, are being called upon to serve as the infrastructure for all sorts of consumer services The approach in this book is detailed and specialised, but the clear writing style, attention to detail and eagerness to explain how principles translate to customer services, make it outstanding.

Explanations of fundamentals are accompanied by discussions with block diagrams, and are dissected in ever greater detail. While this book has done a great job of explaining (from a technical point of view) the increasing overlap of the cable television network with the switched telephone network and the Internet, be sure to read Telecommunications Convergence for a more (but not entirely) business-oriented look at the issue. --David Wall Topics covered: Cable television networks and why they work, with emphasis on how they can be adapted for all sorts of last-mile broadband applications. Fundamentals are covered, as in lightwave transmitters and receivers, optical fibre amplifiers, RF digital quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) modems and the Data-Over-Cable Interface Specifications (DOCSIS) protocol.Read More read less...
