Full Duplex DOCSIS

The Full Duplex (FDX) DOCSIS specification defines simultaneous upstream and downstream communications for symmetrical upstream and downstream data rate capacity. The specification leverages distributed access architecture (DAA) to enhance upstream capacity. The NCTI® Full Duplex DOCSIS course teaches the broadband technician about interferences that are unique to FDX operation and how these interferences are addressed. The course also explains the difference between full duplex operation and frequency division duplexing, and how both are used for FDX DOCSIS operations. Completing the NCTI FDX DOCSIS course prepares the broadband technician for FDX DOCSIS operations in their network.
