A second frequency dowstream would double capacity, but cost, what £2 million?
Regarding EuroDOCSIS, not going to happen until the CPE kit can support it I'm afraid, which is unlikely at the moment as there are still a lot of DOCSIS only boxes about. Also there's the minor issue that the MC16 cards that are installed in Langley uBRs are, or at least were when I left, MC16C which are DOCSIS only, as oppsed to MC16E which do EuroDOCSIS.

As far as running multiple downstreams goes nowhere near that cost. Methinks you read the posts and perhaps the books but still don't quite understand how it all fits together, keep reading t he books young padawan. Lighting another downstream is much easier than you think the main complication is the kit ntl use.

Pretty much, involves some jiggery pokery with MC28 cards, though uBR10ks and MC520 cards are the bestest plan from the Cisco point of view for this.

The main cost there is the manpower in getting it to work.
