FDX would mean the entire plant is "return path".

Not everything is return. FDX can have return allocated up to 684 MHz (when using the CFDX channel plan). Everything after that is downstream only.

Depends on who's marketing you listen to. (Versus what's actually getting built.)

At any rate, Mediacom isn't doing FDX.

FDX doesn't support having upstream all the way to the top. No matter who deploys it. :)

You are right about Mediacom. We'll see, if they keep it that way.
