Abstract
An active cable node circuit associated with a hybrid fiber coax network is disclosed. The active cable node circuit comprises an uplink transceiver circuit configured to couple to an aggregation node circuit over a first coax cable link comprising coaxial cables and receive a set of downstream data signals from the aggregation node circuit. In some embodiments, the active cable node circuit further comprises one or more access transceiver circuits configured to provide the set of downstream data signals received at the uplink transceiver circuit or a processed version thereof, to one or more access circuits. In some embodiments, each of the one or more access transceiver circuits is configured to couple to the uplink transceiver circuit at a first end, and couple to a set of access circuits of the one or more access circuits at a second, different end, over a second coax cable link.
