Not necessarily.
The upgrade to 200Mb can be done quite happily on 10 channels if there are relatively few modems on each 10 channel group. Not cheap but if there's something pressing preventing installation of new CMTS it can be done.
300Mb, will most definitely need 12 channels as a bare minimum. It was tried on 8 and the results were.... unfortunate.
