Cable Timing & Synchronization
Cable
Today’s Utilities’ Network Demands Split-Second Coordination
Modern power infrastructure must support modern operations, but utilities face increasing pressure to provide:
Consistent high-speed data performance
Support for real-time applications and gaming
Efficient spectrum utilization
The Result Is Distributed Timing Complexity
The transition to DOCSIS 3.1/4.0 and fiber-deep architectures brings significant synchronization challenges, including:
-
Remote PHY timing requirements with millisecond precision needed across distributed cable access networks.
-
Packet delay variation management affecting service quality in converged HFC and fiber infrastructures.
-
DOCSIS protocol evolution requiring migration from legacy DTI timing to packet-based PTP synchronization.
-
Network convergence complexity integrating timing across traditional coax, fiber, and wireless backhaul technologies.
-
Virtualization challenges with timing distribution to cloud-based and edge computing platforms.
-
Service quality assurance demands for consistent timing across video delivery, voice, and data services.
