| 20080232801 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSPORTING DOCSIS COMMUNICATION SIGNALS OVER A PASSIVE OPTICAL NETWORK - A translation agent adapts DOCSIS information, primarily QoS information, for transmission over a PON. The agent places into an IP address field of a DHCP message the MAC address of an ONU associated with a CPE device attempting to register with a CMTS. The translation agent intercepts DHCP reply messages from the DHCP server using the MAC address of the ONU. The translation agent extracts information, including an IP address of the client CPE assigned by the DHCP server. The agent downloads a configuration file for the CPE device using the configuration filename and configuration file server contained in a DHCP reply message. Information contained in the configuration file is converted from content in a format used by DOCSIS, to content in a format used by PON devices. The translated content includes QoS parameters, functions related to which are controlled at the ONU by an OLT coupled to the CMTS. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20080285592 | Extended layer two tunneling protocol applications and architectures - A device, deployed at the edge of a provider network, includes logic to receive traffic from one or more customer edge devices, and to encapsulate the customer traffic into a Layer 2 tunnel of an IP frame. The IP frame in further included within an Ethernet frame, and quality of service priority bits are promoted from the customer traffic into both the IP frame and the Ethernet frame. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20090274156 | CARRIER ETHERNET OVER DOCSIS - A network includes a provider edge device with logic to encapsulate Ethernet frames received from customer equipment into Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) frames using Layer Two Tunneling Protocol. The provider edge device further includes logic to implement a virtual switch instance (VSI). | 11-05-2009 |
| 20090285233 | MULTI-SERVICE PHY BOX - A data communication system includes multiple Media Access Control (MAC) units, multiple physical layer (PHY) interface units, and logic to communicate between the MAC units and the PHY units using a single tunneling protocol over Internet Protocol (IP). | 11-19-2009 |
| 20100322420 | Duplicate Address Detection Proxy in Edge Devices - Methods, systems, and apparatus used to provide duplicate address detection in edge devices. Edge devices can include CMTS devices or DSLAMs where network nodes are not allowed to communicate with each other directly. Duplicate address detection proxies can provide duplicate address protection for network devices and can avoid the issue of broadcasting node advertisement messages to all of the devices connected to a particular downstream link. | 12-23-2010 |

| 20080284521 | Electronic Signal Processor - An electronic signal processor for processing signals includes a complex first filter, one or more gain stages and a second filter. The first filter is characterized by a frequency response curve that includes multiple corner frequencies, with some corner frequencies being user selectable. The first filter also has at least two user-preset gain levels which may be alternately selected by a switch. Lower frequency signals are processed by the first filter with at least 12 db/octave slope, and preferably with 18 db/octave slope to minimize intermodulation distortion products by subsequent amplification in the gain stages. A second filter provides further filtering and amplitude control. The signal processor is particularly suited for processing audio frequency signals. Related methods include filtering the input signal with an input filter of the second or third order high pass type, amplifying the filtered signal and further filtering the amplified signal with a low pass filter, which may be of the second order type. | 11-20-2008 |
