Two options for physical layer technology are included. One option is based on the downstream multi-programme te
10、levision distribution that is deployed in North America using 6 MHz channelling, and supports upstream transmission in the region 5 MHz to 42 MHz. The other one is based on the corresponding European multi-programme television distribution and supports upstream in the region 5 MHz to 65 MHz. Source
11、Annex B to ITU-T Recommendation J.112 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 9 (2001-2004) and approved under the WTSA Resolution 1 procedure on 9 March 2001. Annex O “Privacy for J.112 Annex B Implementations“, which was informative at J.112 Annex B approval in March 2001, was changed to normative by IT
12、U-T Rec. J.112 Annex B/Amendment 1 (02/2002). ii ITU-T Rec. J.112/Annex B (03/2001) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of I
13、TU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics
14、for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepare
15、d on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practi
16、ce or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation developm
17、ent process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore str

B.1.3 Background B.1.3.1 Service goals Cable operators are interested in deploying high-speed packet-based communications s
25、ystems on cable television systems that are capable of supporting a wide variety of services. Services under consideration by cable operators include packet telephony service, video conferencing service, T1/frame relay equivalent service, and many others. It has been decided to prepare a series of i
26、nterface specifications that will permit the early definition, design, development and deployment of data-over-cable systems on a uniform, consistent, open, non-proprietary, multi-vendor interoperable basis. The intended service will allow transparent bidirectional transfer of Internet Protocol (IP)
27、 traffic, between the cable system headend and customer locations, over an all-coaxial or hybrid-fiber/coax (HFC) cable network. This is shown in simplified form in Figure B.1-1.

J.112/Annex B (03/2001) 3 The transmission path over the cable system is realized at the headend by a Cable Modem Te
29、rmination System (CMTS), and at each customer location by a Cable Modem (CM). At the headend (or hub), the interface to the data-over-cable system is called the Cable Modem Termination System Network-Side Interface (CMTS-NSI) and is specified in DOCSIS3. At the customer locations, the interface is c
30、alled the cable-modem-to-customer-premises-equipment interface (CMCI) and is specified in DOCSIS4. The intent is for operators to transparently transfer IP traffic between these interfaces, including but not limited to datagrams, DHCP, ICMP, and IP Group addressing (broadcast and multicast).
