DOCSIS 3.1 is the most deployed version of the DOCSIS set of specifications, promising download speeds of up to 10 Gbps. It defines a totally new physical layer for achieving those speeds. However, to fully utilize its features, major HFC network upgrades are required.

The goal of this engineering course is to provide insight into how the new physical layer operates, the impact on the network and how the HFC network needs to be modified.  The course also provides a good understanding of the speeds that can be offered by 3.1 based on network parameters.

Achieve an in-depth understanding of the technological evolution and its advantages along with the new concepts introduced in DOCSIS 3.1

An overview of different features and characteristics

Calculation of speeds that can be offered by 3.1 based on network parameters

After attending this course, the attendee will be capable of understanding DOCSIS 3.1 concepts, numerology, configuration and monitoring
