Full Duplex DOCSIS 3.1 technology builds on the successful completion of CableLabs’ DOCSIS 3.1 specification, which made deployments of 10 Gbps downstream and 1 Gbps upstream broadband possible. Full Duplex 3.1 technology improves upon the DOCSIS 3.1 standard by:
Significantly increasing upstream capacity
Enabling symmetric multi-
gigabit services over existing hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) technology
Ensuring that cable operators are ready to meet future usage needs for technologies, such as virtual and augmented reality – although widespread consumer demand for high speed upstream is not yet here, operators need to be prepared when the time comes
