Nope the upload upgrade to child sites is nothing to do with their parents. The CMTS serving Castlecary live at the Castlecary hubsite. As far as broadband goes the links are all IP only.

The upload upgrade is pure DOCSIS, so terminates at the CMTS.
The smaller child sites are going to get the upgrade before their larger parent sites simply because there are more components to replace in the cabled areas covered by the larger sites as they pass more homes. Case in point is my own, which should've been done last month, it is a 4 x VXR, 2 x BSR site, its parent site, Croydon, has 4 times as much CMTS capacity with 16 VXRs and 4 Cisco 10ks.

All the CMTS support DOCSIS 2 upstreams without modification, it's bonding that needed the new cards.
