Cable broadband Internet access piggy-backs onto a pre-existing cable
television system. One or more of the cable channels is
given over to the cable broadband service. Typically a
number of users share each of the cable channels carrying
the broadband service.
Cable broadband provides a duplex link within
the cable infrastructure. Cable broadband does not, therefore, require
a separate back channel.
