1.1 Introduction
Lindsay Broadband LB-1000 3RU Optical Headend Access Platform is a converged headend, hub
access platform to enable cable operators and services providers to build, migrate or upgrade their
existing analog and/or digital networks to meet ever growing demand for advanced Video, HSD and
