PE42723 DOCSIS RF Switch

The nearly insatiable consumer demand for higher data rates will cause the global internet traffic to grow three and a quarter-fold from 2014 to 2019. So in 2019, three trillion minutes (five million years) of video content will cross the Internet globally each month. That's 977,095 minutes of video streamed or downloaded every second. How are operators preparing to support this massive increase in data consumption? What are the concerns? The increase in internet traffic puts a tremendous strain on broadband infrastructure and on home equipment. PSEMI RF switches offered today can ease this transition and meet the stringent requirements of the DOCSIS 3.1 standard. These switches address the industry-wide challenge with cable standard transition, infrastructure refresh, and bandwidth upgrade.
