Automatische Zeitgebungseinstellung für diverse Verkehrslenkung von HFC Systemen

摘要

A telephony system having automatic timing adjustment for diverse routing of HFC systems has a signal stream routing through a signal line loop (140) between a head-end (120) and at least one communication unit (152). If a fault occurs within the signal line loop (140), recognized by the head-end (120) when a short uplink burst from the communication unit (152) does not align within a predetermined timing window, the head-end (120) will cycle through predetermined delay parameters corresponding to various alternate signal line loops made up of redundant signal lines (146, 148). Once the predetermined delay parameter corresponding to the current alternate signal line loop is determined, normal operation of the system resumes.
