Question
Chapter 1, Problem R5RQ
Program Plan Intro
Hybrid Fiber Coaxial (HFC):
Hybrid fiber coaxial is related to telecommunications which helps in aggregation of optical fiber and coaxial cable. In HFC system, the data is sent to the local systems through optical fiber from the coaxial cable.

Is HFC transmission rate dedicated or shared among users? Are collisions possible in a downstream HFC channel? Why or why not?
Is the HFC transmission rate allocated to a single user or shared? Is it conceivable for collisions to occur in a downstream HFC channel? Why do you think that is?
How many users share the HFC transmission rate? Is a downstream HFC channel prone to collisions? To what end?
