ACCESS NODE FOR MULTI-PROTOCOL VIDEO AND DATA SERVICES |
摘要 |
An access node that is deployable at a distance from a cable company headend or a telephone company central office serves residential and business subscribers within a small geographical area. The access node provides interoperability between and across communications links and protocols, thereby providing a modular, configurable access point for both business and residential users that enables the service provider to tailor its services f or each user in a cost-effective manner. The access node includes modular interfaces to multiple communications links and protocols on its network sid e and modular interfaces to multiple communications links and protocols on its user or access side. A switch/router connects the outputs of the two interfaces together and aggregates traffic to the network while simultaneous ly partitioning traffic to the users to the appropriate connections.
