There are no Quality of Service protections available in DOCSIS. Quality of Service protections are incorporated in the physical layer.
Quality of Service protections are incorporated in the MAC layer. Quality of Service protections are incorporated in the MPEG layer. Which of the following best describes "CMTS forwarding out-of-band data to a digital set-top box." DNCS Control Plane tru2way middleware Proprietary set-top software stack DSG Agent The CMTS acts at the DSG agent forwarding OOB data to the digital DOCSIS set-top gateway. Which of the following is the most appropriate reason for why encoding a high motion sports sequence would be more challenging than encoding primetime news? The increased motion and changing images in the sports footage demand more video frames from the encoder. The complex and fast-paced motion in the sports footage will have large differences in the content from frame to frame, giving the encoder less redundancies to work with. The increased color and motion in the sports sequence means it will have more I-Frames per GOP then the news sequence. The news footage will be lower bitrate then the sports footage, so less strenuos to the encoder. Sports programming, action-adventure films, or any content with moving elements that are highly dynamic from frame to frame present greater challenges for encoders to achieve high compression ratios, while talking heads type programming such as the newscaster seen here is far less challenging to an encoder For Digital Program Insertion, SCTE 30 is the protocol used for which of the following communications? Communications between the video server and the encoder Communications between the encoder and splicer Communications between the edge-modulator and splicer Communications between the video server and splicer
The primary difference between computer data traffic and real-time media data traffic is: Media data traffic needs only intermittent connectivity Media data traffic uses sliding window ARQ Media data traffic requres a delivery receipt. Media data traffic is not re-transmittable Which of the following specifications specifically addresses the combination of these components? Embedded Cable modem, out-of-band directory, digital set-top box. DOCSIS 2.0 tru2way DSG SCTE 18 Which of the following management systems is intended to be used for monitoring a wide range of equipment within the network? Element Management System Network Management System Operations Support System Back Office System In order to pass closed captioning, an encoder will need to transcode which VBI line(s)? 21 Any 20

To make sure all the work can get done in the available maintenance window To make sure that customer care doesn't see a big spike in call volume To make sure that the system stays stable as it scales by users Headend or hub trial goals: Usually no impact to subscribers, often prelude to technical trial Does the product perform in the headend or hub the same as in lab tests? Was something missed? Interaction? Stability over time for users as service scales, headends or hubs usually more stable than labs Work can get done in the available maintenance window No spike in call volume seen by customer care In linear analog-to-digital conversion, what would be required to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of the recovered baseband signal? Increase the compression clock frequency Increase the encoding rate value Increase the sampling rate Increase the quantization bit value From Encoder to set-top box, digital programs are carried in an MPEG transport stream. For a digital cable system, which of the following most accurately defines the interfaces at which you can connect an MPEG stream analyzer to test the signal? Component video, SDI, ASI, and IP.

All of the following are considerations in allocating RF spectrum for a new service EXCEPT: Total plant capacity Current lineup Future data services Modulation type Which of the following is the best example of objective video quality evaluation? Equipment is used to quantify impairments in the video frames against pre-defined metrics.
