Let’s Be Friends: How Cable 10G and Wireless 5G/CBRS Work Better Together (Room 225-227)

01 Oct 19
2:15 PM - 3:15 PM

Tracks: Converged Networks and Mobility

Cable 10G and wireless 5G/CBRS initiatives offer disruptive and revolutionary technologies that at first glance seem to be at odds. But when combined, they offer an evolutionary strategy with much synergy. This session will review the technologies that promise symmetric multi-Gigabit services, discuss the capacity and latency of the options, and compare them to wireless technologies such as 5G, Wi-Fi 6 and CBRS. The importance of DOCSIS mobile backhaul of LTE and 5G will also be discussed, along with the challenges of mobile backhaul, such as dynamic adaptation and 5G system integration. The session will show how a self-organizing network (SON) can be the glue between the DOCSIS system and the 5G eco-system that owns the policies – and how cable 10G and wireless 5G/CBRS are much stronger together, as the core of a next generation network evolution.
