When combined with NetGame's DOCSIS compliant Phazer Cable Modem, and DOCSIS compliant Quarterback (CMTS), the DCBR-1100 offers Cable Operators' home or office-based customers with a comprehensive data over cable service solution. With the QoS ability offered by the DOCSIS System, users are also assured of constant high-speed Internet access to each individual customer. Compliance to the DOCSIS standard ensures interoperability of equipment throughout system operators' infrastructures, including a wide range of consumer devices.
