Title:	      Cable IP Telephony - An Industry Perspective

Abstract:

Cable companies are aggressively deploying local telephony service in their
serving areas.  This talk gives an industry perspective on the need to
migrate from a circuit-switched architecture for cable telephony to an
IP-based architecture.  It will concentrate on the architectures and
technical challenges of building and deploying a primary line IP Telephony
service in a large cable company.
