ARRIS has reached agreement with its major customers on the timing and pricing to upgrade deployed Cadant C4 CMTSs for DOCSIS 2.0 compatibility. The field upgrades will be made possible by the introduction of a new DOCSIS 2.0 Cable Access Module (CAM), which the company said is 100% compatible with the installed base of Cadant C4 CMTSs. Each CAM supports 2 downstream channels and 12 upstream channels with DOCSIS 2.0 features. ARRIS plans to submit its Cadant C4 CMTS with the new upgrades to CableLabs for DOCSIS 2.0 qualification by Q1 2004.

From the Graveyard
You just read about ARRIS. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
C-COR built Cable access, optical transport and network management. What became of it?
C-COR brought Cable access, optical transport and network management to Telecom. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by ARRIS for US$730M. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside ARRIS today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
From the Technology Graveyard
You just read about All. A technology from the archive that helped get us here:
Google/Alphabet Project Loon served 2011–2021. What ultimately replaced it?
Google/Alphabet Project Loon solar-powered balloons drifting in the stratosphere (~20 km), steering by rising and falling into different wind layers, relaying LTE from ground stations to phones far below. Its job passed to Unit economics — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
