Relationship among the Devices

This illustration shows a cable company that offers DOCSIS- and PacketCable-compliant

voice/data services.

What the Modem Does

The Residential Voice Gateway provides high-speed Internet access as well as cost-effective,

toll-quality telephone voice and fax/modem services over residential, commercial, and

education subscribers on public and private networks via an existing CATV infrastructure. It can

inter-operate with the PacketCable compliant headend equipment and provide the IP-based

voice communications. The IP traffic can transfer between the Residential Voice Gateway and

DOCSIS compliant headend equipment. The data security secures upstream and downstream

communications.

What the Modem Needs to Do Its Job

 The Right Cable Company: Make sure your local cable company provides data services that

use cable TV industry-standard Euro-DOCSIS or DOCSIS-compliant and Euro-PacketCable

or PacketCable-compliant technology.
