The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

The following sections list the new hardware and software features supported on the Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Routers in this release:
The Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) protocol for encrypting video services as defined in the ETSI TS 103 197 DVB Simulcrypt specification has been implemented on the line card for DVB R-PHY on Cisco cBR-8.
For ASM, the input is identified by the group IP address.
For SSM, the input is identified by the source and group IP address pair.
In both cases, the UDP ports are ignored. Both ASM and SSM can co-exist but cannot overlap in a group IP address. Hence, for a group IP address, either a single ASM, or one or more SSM can be used.
A QAM profile describes the common downstream channel modulator settings, referred to as physical layer parameters. This includes QAM symbol rate, interleaver-depth, spectrum-inversion, and annex.
The CableLabs’ MHAv2 standards requires CCAP Core and RPD must support both IPv4 and IPv6, which means the Remote PHY Signaling between the CCAP Core and RPD is able to run on both IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
