Headend to Home

Accelerate DAA Deployment with the RD2322 Remote PHY/MACPHY Device

With bandwidth demand on the rise, the transition to a Distributed Access Architecture (DAA) is not a question of if, but when. Making the move to DAA can be challenging for operators when there are so many technology and architectural decisions that come along with it. Chief among them is the choice between Remote PHY and Remote MACPHY, but operators must also align their transition to DAA with their upcoming plans to increase spectrum and evolve to DOCSIS 4.0. With the introduction of the RD2322, CommScope is giving operators a single device they can deploy today with all the flexibility they need to upgrade for tomorrow. The transition to DAA starts now.

Remote PHY. Remote MACPHY. All in One Device.

The RD2322 can operate as either a Remote PHY Device (RPD) or a Remote MACPHY Device (RMD), and transition between them with a simple software upgrade. That’s why we call it RxD - it’s the industry’s most flexible node-based device for DAA evolution.

A Robust, Scalable Management Platform

CommScope’s Virtualized Management Suite allows the operator to deploy, configure and manage RxDs while making the transition from RPDs to RMDs with a simple software upgrade. Connects to the operator’s existing management platforms to help unify operations for mixed integrated CCAP and DAA environments. It also simplifes license management and provides data analytics for a truly powerful integrated management capability.

A Flexible Pathway to What’s Next

The RD2322 offers a migration path to Flexible MAC Architecture (FMA), which will disaggregate the CCAP management, control, and data planes and provide a path to 10G.

DOCSIS 4.0

DAA solutions enable operators to incrementally add DOCSIS 4.0 capabilities to their networks. CommScope is committed to adding DOCSIS 4.0 features and to developing footprint capable devices that reduce operator total cost of ownership.
