Time Warner Cable is currently testing DOCSIS 3.0 in NYC, Hobbs says. Testing has netted 138Mbps download speeds and and 18Mbps upload speeds, the COO says, adding that these won’t be offered initially.

Once Time Warner completes the DOCSIS rollout in New York City by year’s end, deployments of the infrastructure in other markets will be “surgical.” New York City is an important market, as competitor Verizon has recently signed a franchise agreement with the city to fully outfit the city with its FiOS fiber-optic infrastructure by 2014.

The carrier says that further DOCSIS 3.0 deployments will be “surgical” in nature. That’s code for targeting areas where the company faces competition from Verizon FiOS, and can’t get away with nursing last-generation infrastructure. According to Hobbs, the company faces telcoTV competition in 22% of its footprint; 15% AT&T U-Verse and 7% Verizon FiOS.
Speaking to stock jocks about the company’s earnings on yesterday’s earnings conference call, Time Warner Cable COO Landel Hobbs stated that the company would be deploying faster DOCSIS 3.0 speeds this summer. Confirming reports we’ve heard from Cisco engineers familiar with the deployments, Time Warner Cable is already testing DOC 3.0 gear in NYC, which appears to be their only launch market in 2009:
In advance of our launch of DOCSIS 3.0 we have installed new CMTS equipment in Manhattan. To date, we have been testing at speeds as high as 138 down and 18 up. The system works great. We don’t expect to offer speeds this fast initially but this demonstrates we will be fully capable of meeting our customer’s need for speed for the foreseeable future.
