Suddenlink Deploys DOCSIS 3.0

In 2008, cable MSO Suddenlink started deploying DOCSIS 3.0 technology and launching a new Internet service with up to 20 Mbps download speeds – with the capability to provide even faster speeds, as customer demand requires. The company reports that these deployments have been completed in areas serving approximately 8 percent of its nearly 1.3 million customers, including in Georgetown, Lubbock and Midland, TX. In the months ahead, Suddenlink executives said they expect to complete substantially more DOCSIS 3.0 deployments and 20 Mbps launches.
