The Communication Station CMTS unit from
Blonder Tongue is a high performance cable
modem termination system designed to accom-
modate practically any application but is per-
fectly suited for small system type deploy-
ments.
The CS-CMTS starts out like your usual DOC-
SIS/ Euro-DOCSIS “pizza box” like unit but that
is where the comparison ends. The unit fea-
tures a scalable design architecture that mini-
mizes capital investment by providing the ability
to add support for additional subscribers as the
base grows. This is accomplished by support-
ing 1 to 8 upstream modules that are field
installable. An advanced command line inter-
face (CLI) software with context sensitive help
and variable prompts make set-up easy. The
CLI can be accessed locally via the serial inter-
face or remotely through the built-in network
secure Telnet server as well as provide remote
download capability for software updates with
the use of TFTP and FTP servers.
Security is vital to any data application today
and the CS-CMTS provides advanced tools
such as DOCSIS BPI and BPI+ packet filtering,
and DHCP and ARP monitoring to prevent
unauthorized system access. Traffic forwarding
is handled as a layer-2 transparent bridge with
support for Syslog, Radius, PPPoE and net-
work protocol services. Plus, subscriber satis-
faction during peak usage is maintained with a
unique dynamic load balancing approach of
upstream traffic management with the use of
load balancing algorithms and support for
upstream frequency reuse. An optional NMS
(Network Monitoring Software) is also available
to provide a single source for configuration,
service provisioning, performance analysis,
QoS accounting and subscriber access authen-
tication. This all adds up to the most complete,
easy to use and affordable DOCSIS based
CMTS solution available.
