Provided is an outdoor optical node unit (ONU) and method for converting/combining frequencies, and an apparatus and method for converting/combining frequencies in a cable television headend system. The optical node unit (ONU) includes: a downstream optic-to-electric converting unit for converting a downstream optic signal transferred through an optical cable network from a headend system to a downstream electric signal; a down frequency converting and combining unit for isolating the downstream electric signal to a broadcasting signal transmitted as a coaxial cable usable frequency band (In-Band signal) and a band signal higher than the coaxial cable usable frequency band (Super-Band (SB) signal), isolating each of channel signals in the SB signal, converting the isolated channel signals to downstream signals in a coaxial cable usable frequency band, and combining each of the frequency-converted downstream signals with the In-Band signal to generate a coaxial cable usable frequency band downstream signal; an up/down band isolating unit for outputting each of the coaxial cable usable frequency band downstream signals inputted from the down frequency converting and combining unit to a corresponding coaxial cable, or dividing an upstream signal transferred through a coaxial cable from each of subscriber's sub cells to a cable TV upstream frequency band signal and In-Band upstream channel band signal (IUC band signal) which is other upstream channel in a coaxial cable usable frequency band excepting the cable TV upstream frequency band, and outputting the cable TV upstream frequency band signal and the IUC band signal to an upstream frequency converting and combining unit; an upstream frequency converting and combining unit for converting the upstream signals which are the cable TV upstream frequency band signal and the IUC band signal inputted from the up/down band isolating unit to channels not overlapped in the coaxial cable usable frequency band, combining the converted channel signals to generate a coaxial cable usable frequency band upstream electric signal; an up electric-to-optic converting unit for receiving the optical cable usable frequency band upstream electric signal, converting the optical cable usable frequency band upstream electric signal to an upstream optical signal, and outputting the upstream optical signal to the headend system through an optical cable network; and a local oscillating unit for generating local oscillating signal for frequency-conversion, and providing the generated local oscillating signal to the down frequency converting and combining unit or the up frequency converting and combining unit.

Provided are a transmission apparatus and a transmission method for a subscriber network in a cable network. A passive optical network (GPON) receiver receives data packets through a fiber line using a plurality of optical wavelengths from a head end. A micro cable modem termination system (CMTS) converts the data packets into a data over cable service interface specification (DOCSIS)-based DOCSIS frame and transmits the DOCSIS frame to at least one subscriber device through a coaxial line.

Disclosed are a method and apparatus for providing broadcast service information in a cable network. A data transmitting method of the broadcast service information providing apparatus includes receiving IPTV broadcast contents, configuring broadcast service information on the IPTV broadcast contents, assigning a virtual channel to the broadcast service information; and transmitting, to a terminal, the broadcast service information to which the virtual channel is assigned. A data receiving method of a terminal includes receiving broadcast service information to which a virtual channel is assigned, displaying configuration information of the virtual channel, selecting the virtual channel, and decoding the broadcast service information assigned to the selected virtual channel to display the decoded information.

An apparatus of providing Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) reception information includes a Cable Modem (CM) to provide an interactive service that enables an IPTV broadcast content including service information, and a Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) Media Access Control Management Message (MMM) based on the service information to be received from a cable network, or enables an IPTV broadcast content control signal to be transmitted from a subscriber to the cable network, and a Set-Top Box (STB) to decode the IPTV broadcast content received from the CM and to transmit the decoded IPTV broadcast content to a display device. The STB may receive an IPTV broadcast content selected by a user using Layer 2 (L2) reception information bounded to the IPTV broadcast content. Thus, it is possible to receive an IPTV broadcast content selected by a user directly without a delay time.

A terminal authentication apparatus and method in a Downloadable Conditional Access System (DCAS) is provided. The terminal authentication method may determine whether terminal authentication information, received from a DCAS terminal, is valid by referring to a database, may transmit DCAS image information and pairing information about the terminal authentication information to a user terminal, when the terminal authentication information is valid, and thereby may enable the DCAS terminal to set the user terminal based on the pairing information.
