Training Course Outline

Wireline Telecom Courses   Next Generation Network Training Courses

Understanding DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications)

View course dates

Course Duration: 1 day

Course Code: PWL032

Course Description:

The next generation of telecommunications networks will deliver broadband data and multimedia services to users. Integration of Internet Access with TV, music and radio distribution will become a reality provided mechanisms to provide multicast delivery are implemented.  IP Television will provide an alternative mechanism for delivering services.

DOCSIS is a set of standards produced by the Cable Television industry for delivering Internet access and other data services over traditional cable television Networks.

This course provides an understanding of how IP multicasting works, its advantages and limitations and how it can be deployed to provide effective services over a modern Cable TV network. It will provide a detailed understanding for implementers, designers, managers and infrastructure engineers that need to plan, implement and use the new generation of networks and services.

Objectives

When you have completed this course you will be able to:

Describe the basic structure of DOCSIS standards
Select the appropriate parts of the DOCSIS specifications
Implement the required services at the customer and network sides
Provide Baseline Privacy Plus service
Select appropriate IP service mechanisms for Address Allocation
Carry Internet services over cable network infrastructures
