Introduction
The cable industry has recognized the need to develop ETSI Technical Specifications aimed at developing interoperable
interface specifications and mechanisms for the delivery of end to end advanced real time IP multimedia time critical
services over bi-directional broadband cable networks.
IPCablecom 1.5 defines interface specifications that can be used to develop interoperable equipment capable of
providing packet-based voice, video and other high-speed multimedia services over hybrid fiber coax (HFC) cable ®
systems utilizing the DOCSIS protocol. IPCablecom utilizes a network superstructure that overlays the two-way data-
ready cable television network. While the initial service offerings in the IPCablecom product line are anticipated to be
Packet Voice, the long-term project vision encompasses packet video and a large family of other packet-based services.
IPCablecom 1.5 builds upon and extends IPCablecom 1.0 to include support of the following additional capabilities:
• VoIP signalling between Call Management Servers.
• Subscriber provisioning of Call Management Servers.
• Enhanced alarm and informational event collection and reporting.
• Enhanced reliability and availability (e.g. E-MTA battery backup).
• Reliable transmission of voice-band-band data (e.g., FAX and DTMF relay).
• Enhanced audio codecs.

6 ETSI TS 103 161-1 V1.1.1 (2011-06)
The cable industry is a global market and therefore the ETSI standards are developed to align to the extent possible with
standards either already developed or under development in other regions. The ETSI specifications are consistent to the ®
extent possible with the CableLabs /PacketCable™ set of specifications as published by the SCTE. An agreement has
been established between ETSI and SCTE in the US to ensure, where appropriate, that the release of PacketCable™ and
IPCablecom set of specifications are aligned and to avoid unnecessary duplication.
