Cisco Model DPC3008 DOCSIS 3.0 8x4 Cable Modem
The Cisco® Model DPC3008 DOCSIS 3.0 8x4 Cable Modem (DPC3008) provides
DOCSIS® broadband service providers with a cost-effective solution for delivering highspeed bi-directional data services. The DPC3008 provides a faster connection to the
Internet by incorporating eight bonded downstream channels along with four bonded
upstream channels. These bonded channels deliver downstream data rates in excess of
340 Mbps. That’s up to eight times faster than conventional single-channel DOCSIS 2.0
cable modems.
The DPC3008 is designed to DOCSIS 3.0 specifications as well as being backward compatible
with DOCSIS 2.0, 1.1, and 1.0 networks.
