Content
The STB 102 also includes, in one implementation, a network interface 302 for communicating with the broadband communication network 101 via the head-end 110. The interface 302 may include conventional tuning circuitry for receiving MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) packets for a selected television channel. The interface 302 may also include conventional cable modem circuitry for sending or receiving other types of data. For example, the interface 302 may conform to the DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification) or DAVIC (Digital Audio-Visual Council) cable modem standards. In one embodiment, a CMTS-DRFI (Cable Modem Termination System-Downstream RF Interface) may be used in conjunction with a CMTS-URFI (Cable Modem Termination System-Downstream RF Interface) to establish two-way communication between the STB 102 and the head-end 110.
