What Is Driving Change in the Cable Industry?
▪ In one word…
COMPETITION !!!
5 NCTA 2007
In More Than One Word…
▪ Voice− VoIP is becoming more widely deployed and accepted− Wireless Providers are using Fixed Mobile Convergence to steer VoIP
calls directly to their subscribers’ homes
▪ Video− Narrowcast VoD & HDTV is more widely deployed and accepted− Satellite Providers are greatly increasing the number of HDTV channels
that they support (ex: DirectTV will offer 100 HDTV channels)− DSL & FTTH Video Providers are offering IPTV services to the PC
▪ High-Speed Data− The possibility of true convergence of Data, Voice, and IP Video Services
is becoming a reality for all service providers− Commercial Services, Video Downloads, IPTV, P2P, P2PTV (ex: Joost &
Vuze), & other applications are becoming commonplace− These new applications are requiring more bandwidth & rapidly-changing
Upstream-to-Downstream channel ratios for HSD service − HSD competitors (ex: DSL & FTTH) are rapidly increasing their
bandwidth capabilities
MSOs have many weapons to use against these competitive attacks

▪Conclusions
7 NCTA 2007
We Predict the Following Changes…
▪ Voice− Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) will let MSOs work with WiFi MTAs (in the home)
and cellular providers− More improvements and focus on the high availability, high quality, & customer
support offered by the MSO “wired” voice service− Many more Business Services rollouts using VoIP− Higher take-rates & more ubiquitous deployments of Voice over IP (VoIP)
▪ Video− More digital channels… less analog channels− Switched Digital Video (SDV) for spectrum efficiency− More HDTV & more VoD− Move toward IPTV over DOCSIS to PCs & PDAs− Introduction of fee-based IP video download services and QoS-enabled
partnerships with 3rd-party Internet TV content providers using PacketCable™ Multi Media (PCMM) and DOCSIS®
▪ High-Speed Data− Tighter coupling with WiFi for Business Services− Dynamic sharing of bandwidth between Voice, Video, and Data requiring more
complex network management− Focus on Quality of Experience (QoE) levels− Much higher DOCSIS bandwidth per subscriber using DOCSIS 3.0 Channel
Bonding− Many more Business Services rollouts using DOCSIS

10 NCTA 2007
Automated In-Premise Loop Diagnostics will accelerate VoIP Rollouts and TroubleshootingEx: ARRIS Touchstone® E-MTA 5.0 Feature
▪ The ARRIS E-MTA is a complex device capable of performing remote tests on the in-home wiring + providing troubleshooting data
▪ Five tests are available to the operator:− Hazardous Potential Test (ie. AC cross-wiring)− Foreign ElectroMotive Force (FEMF) Test (ie. ILEC cross-wiring)− Resistive Faults Test & Receiver-Off-Hook Test (ie. wiring shorts)− Ringers Test (excessive number of phones)
▪ The System Operator can remotely perform these tests, resulting in a simple Pass/Fail result, or a more substantive test report
Proactive, high-quality network management into the subscriber’s homes & businesses
11 NCTA 2007
Automated Call Quality Monitoring will expedite TroubleshootingEx: ARRIS Touchstone® E-MTA Feature

FTTH Competition is Leading MSOs to Realize there is a Near-term Need for Much More DOCSIS® Bandwidth per Subscriber
How can we increase the DOCSIS bandwidth per subscriber?
19 NCTA 2007
Possible Techniques for Increasing the DOCSIS® Bandwidth per Subscriber
“HFC has a lot of legs
left”!
▪ Fiber Node Splits − Reduces # subs per DOCSIS Channel− Limits Tmax to 40 Mbps
▪ Simple Increase in the number of DOCSIS Channels per Fiber Node− Increases BW per sub− Limits Tmax to 40 Mbps − Requires Switched Digital Video or Analog Reclamation or
MPEG-4 Compression to free up Video Channels for DOCSIS use
▪ DOCSIS 3.0 Channel-bonding to increase the amount of bandwidth per DOCSIS Channel− Increases BW per sub− Tmax values higher than 40 Mbps
20 NCTA 2007

U.S. MSOs have invested more than $100B during the past
decade building and upgrading infrastructure
▪ MSO Last Mile Access Network− High capacity coax network
5-6 Gbps of Downstream (forward)Over 100 Mbps of Upstream (return)
− Extensive fiber network close to Business Customers
▪ Next Generation IP/MPLS Network− Supports convergence of all
servicesVoice, Video, and DataResidential and Business Customers
− Carrier Class NetworkRedundancy and High AvailabilityNetwork Operation Organizations and Systems
▪ Incremental Investment− MSOs have the ability to “target”
network capacity expansion where and when needed thus avoiding network-wide upgrades
− Fixed wireless data solutions are portable assets that improve time to market and ROI

Conclusions
1. The Cable Industry has a tremendous opportunity to increase its share of the Small - Medium Business Market.
2. There is a worldwide industry shift to Ethernet Based Services replacing legacy T1, Frame Relay and SONET based technologies.
3. This shift complements the Cable Industry because they have already built Next Generation Networks capable of supporting Voice, Video and Data for Residential and Commercial Customers.
4. A significant portion of the Enablement Capital for Business Services is already in place, without new network-wide upgrades.
5. Incremental Investment and Success Based Capital will be targeted and tied to New Business Service Revenue.
6. MSOs’ extensive HFC network infrastructure, combined with the arrival of DOCSIS® 3.0, will be sufficient to support the majority of SMB service needs, minimizing costly, additional fiber builds.
Thank You !
The Cable Industry has a tremendous opportunity to increase
