Colton, While we have never tried it ourselves, an option we've looked at in similar situations are these: http://www.ready-links.com/ipc1840c.html http://www.bectechnologies.net/main/EoCoax2310.shtml (up to 31 endpoints) Frank -----Original Message----- From: NANOG [mailto:nanog-bounces@nanog.org] On Behalf Of Colton Conor Sent: Wednesday, July 29, 2015 8:27 AM To: NANOG <nanog@nanog.org>; Scott Helms <khelms@zcorum.com> Subject: DOCSIS CMTS Systems We are servicing more MDU customers that have older buildings. There is no CAT5E installed, so extremely old phone cable or coaxial TV cable seems to be our only inside wire options. There is no easy and inexpensive way to run new cable, so we must deal with what is available. We are very familiar with the VDSL2 offerings to be able to use the phone cable, but know nothing about CMTS solutions available.DOCSIS 3.0 capable modems seem to be much more inexpensive than VDSL2 capable modems. We are looking for recommendations on small CMTS systems for MDU's. I would expect we would want at least DOCSIS 3.0 capabilities, and I assume DOCSIS 3.1 is too new and expensive to deploy on a small scale (think 50 to 200 units per property). We would need the full solution to manage and maintain such an offering. I was thinking something like this might be a good fit: http://www.picodigital.com/product-details.php?ID=miniCMTS200a which is available new for $4500 online. For those of you deploying CMTS systems what do you use and recommend? I am not sure if there is a cable equivalent list to NANOG, but if so please let me know.
