CATIUS sub-systems:

CATIUS Gateway |
The CATIUS Gateway, located at the Cable Operator's head-end, controls upstream and downstream data flow in the CATIUS system. This device is connected to the internet backbone, the Cat-5 head-end network and to servers hosting Video-on-Demand and Gaming software. The CATIUS Gateway provides a 6MHz CATV RF channel output capable of up to 40Mbps downstream bandwidth. This signal is combined with other CATV channels in the cable operator's Combiner and transported across the cable network. The CATIUS Gateway requires very little power and is small in size, facilitating easy installation and maintenance. Each CATIUS Gateway can serve thousands of subscribers. |

V-Switch |
On the cable network, the V-Switch provides connectivity to subscribers via its 14 Ethernet ports. An uplink Ethernet port connects to the Cat-5 network while downstream data is received through a coax cable port. Two power options are available: the injected voltage on the coax cable and Power over Ethernet (PoE). In PoE mode, the switch can drive power to other V-Switches in the network. V-Switch supports Ethernet cable lengths of 300m over Cat-5/5e/6 UTP/STP cables. When deployed in Arc or Ring topologies, cable cuts are detected and alternate paths automatically established, providing fail safe service delivery. The V-Switch is outdoor mountable and its ports are protected against lightning surges of up to 4KV levels. The V-Switch can also be deployed as a regular Ethernet switch, with both downstream and upstream on Cat-5, offering the same advanced management features. |

CATIUS EMS |
CATIUS EMS software facilitates managed, reliable delivery of data and video services across the network. With the easy-to-use CATIUS EMS, the Operator can monitor, configure and control all key CATIUS components from the head-end. Each Ethernet port of the V-Switch can individually be enabled or disabled, and bound to a specific subscriber PC. Traffic between subscriber PCs connected to the same V-Switch can be blocked. CATIUS EMS can configure the network to filter spurious broadcast data or virus traffic from the subscriber end (at the V-Switch), improving network efficiency and performance. |
