:said by ke4pym :said by Loker :3. This one is more of a question but why is everyone so convinced coax is dead when it still has legs and can still be competitive for at least another 10-15 years.
Because hacks such as SDV and bit caps are just that. Hacks. And as the headline says - eventually it will cost more to manage the network than it is to simply upgrade it.
That is just marketing spam from Motorola 'give us money and we promise it will be cheaper in the long run'...
and to the rest of your post even if you despise SDV as a hack it is still not needed...it has great benefits yes, but the dropping of all analogues is where the bandwidth is really going to be coming from...
Yep, when cable drops the analog channels there will be plenty of bandwidth. I agree with you Loker, I don't see where the cable companies need to upgrade to fiber in the next 10-15 years.
