    Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS)

A cable modem termination system is a system located in the headend of the cable television system that coordinates the overall operation of the cable modem system. The CMTS controls the gateways (Internet to data) and end user cable modems. The CMTS not only manages the data paths to allow end users to connect to the Internet, but also provides cable modem authentication, IP address assignment, billing functions and is responsible for the majority of Media Access Control (MAC) functionality in a cable modem network. A single CMTS typically controls hundreds or even thousands of end-user cable modems.
