Hybrid Management Sub-Layer

The SCTE Hybrid Management Sub-Layer (HMS) refers to a set of specifications intended to support the design and implementation of inter-operable management systems for evolving HFC cable networks. The HMS Physical (PHY) Layer Specification describes the physical layer portion of the protocol stack used for communication between HMS-compliant transponders interfacing to manage outside plant network elements (NE) and a centralized headend element (HE).
