Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a network termination includes a downstream channel modulator modulates downstream data into downstream channel signals to convey the downstream data via a guided electromagnetic wave that is bound to a transmission medium of a guided wave communication system. A host interface sends the downstream channel signals to the guided wave communication system and receives upstream channel signals corresponding to upstream frequency channels from the guided wave communication system. An upstream channel demodulator demodulates upstream channel signals into upstream data. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 1):
A network termination comprising:\n a first interface configured to receive first data from a communication network and to send second data to the communication network; a channel modulator configured to modulate, by a first physical layer processing, the first data into first channel signals, the first physical layer processing formatting the first channel signals in accordance with a wireless standard communication protocol that is compatible with direct wireless connectivity to wireless devices via antennas of a distributed antenna system without requiring either an analog to digital conversion or a digital to analog conversion by a plurality of repeaters of the distributed antenna system, the formatting of the first channel signals further enabling the plurality of repeaters of the distributed antenna system to receive and repeat a first guided electromagnetic wave conveying the first channel signals along a surface of a transmission medium; a second interface, coupled to a fiber optic link, configured to send the first channel signals formatted in accordance with the wireless standard communication protocol over the fiber optic link to the distributed antenna system and to receive second channel signals formatted in accordance with the wireless standard communication protocol via the fiber optic link, the second channel signals conveyed by the distributed antenna system via a second guided electromagnetic wave on the surface of the transmission medium; and a channel demodulator configured to demodulate, by a second physical layer processing, the second channel signals in accordance with the wireless standard communication protocol into the second data.
