With the emergence of 4K HD videos, Smart Homes,

Internet of Things, and other innovative services, the

FTTH industry has entered a new stage of rapid

development. As services have increasing

requirements on bandwidth, the Giga Fiber solution is

garnering attention from carriers.

Although copper lines have been in service for hundreds of years, the application of innovative technologies, such as
VDSL2 is an extension of VDSL1 that complies with ITU-T G.993.1 and ITU-T G.993.2.
G.fast and NG-Fast, the copper lines will be able to provide higher and higher bandwidths.

VDSL2 is compatible with ADSL, ADSL2, and ADSL2+, but is not compatible with the less-common VDSL1.
Huawei will continue with copper technology innovation. In addition to vectoring and G.fast, Huawei has started the
research on NG-Fast, which will provide a bandwidth of 5–10 Gbit/s over copper lines.

During the deployment of ultra-broadband networks, carriers face the issues of high manpower costs and

drop fiber routing, and long engineering periods. To resolve these issues, the FTTD/FTTdp solution is used and the VDSL2 G.fast

Challenge
As HFC networks evolve, cable lines carry diverse services and bring complex network O&M and diagnosis.
How to quickly rectify a cable line fault?
How to identify a network fault before it has any impact on user services and to reduce the O&M costs?

Huawei Solution
To better manage and maintain an HFC network, D-CCAP supports proactive network maintenance (PNM). Before
a network fault has any impact on user services, PNM:

Detects a network fault point in advance and proactively locate and rectify the fault.

Minimizes impact on user services.

CMC
Improves operators' service level and reduces network maintenance costs.

PNM relies on pre-equalization coefficients. Specifically, the CMTS monitors the pre-equalization coefficient of each
cable modem (CM) on the hybrid fiber coaxial (HFC). By analyzing these pre-equalization coefficients, the CMTS

PRODUCTS
identifies slight line running indicator changes and detects a latent fault. Based on the analysis results and CM
topology, the maintenance personnel locate and rectify the fault before the fault adversely affects user services.

Internet Compared with DOCSIS 3.0, DOCSIS 3.1 features high bandwidths so that it empowers operators to provide
smooth and clear audio as well as video experience for users over the Internet.

The DOCSIS 3.1-based D-CCAP solution uses OFDMA in the upstream direction to share frequency bands for
multiple users and uses OFDM in the downstream direction to improve spectrum efficiency. In addition, DOCSIS

CMTS 3.1 uses higher order modulation (HOM) and LDPC to increase line rates.

OFDM is a multi-carrier transmission technology.

Unlike single-carrier QAM in DOCSIS 3.0, OFDM has strong noise resistance capability and overcomes high bit
Compared with DOCSIS 3.0, DOCSIS 3.1 supports the following: error rate (BER).
1. Uses OFDM that supports higher modulation efficiency and powerful capabilities in signal surge resistance
and narrowband noise resistance. Single-carrier technology Multi-carrier technology
2. Uses LDPC code that improves the FEC gain by about 6 dB compared with RS code.
3. Increases the modulation order range, which supports smaller MER granularity and higher efficiency as
different orders are selected for different modulation error ratios (MERs).
4. Improves efficiency as different modulation profiles are selected for different user channels. S4
