Power is the problem really. Cascades are smaller than they used to be so attenuation and in turn MER from repeated amplification needed to get over it isn't the biggest problem, however to get the extra gain to compensate for the higher frequencies needs extra juice.
EDIT: The biggest problem of all is that splitters and isolators in homes in plant like that one will only be good for 1GHz before they have a big roll-off. They'll need swapping.
