Japan MSO Jupiter Telecommunications (J-COM) is migrating to the upstream-enhancing DOCSIS 2.0 platform by deploying cable modems and cable modem termination systems (CMTSs) from Terayon Communication Systems.
Specifically, J-COM will deploy Terayon’s BW 3500 CMTS and TJ 735x cable modems. To date, the BW 3500 is the only CMTS to win DOCSIS 2.0 qualification from CableLabs.
J-COM said it is making the move as it faces increasing competition from ADSL and fiber-to-the-home service operators.
