Hi I guess I can throw some inputs, Cable access are the way to go man,
it can give SLA equivalent to any other WAN circuit, primarily the focus
of the cable Industry is mainly at the residential connection, Business
houses aren't looking at this option as yet, but if I were you I would
certainly go for Cable since at the end of the day I am going to save
some $$$ for my company without compromising anything at all.
I have put-up quite a few Cable MSO myself in Latin American countries
using Cisco uBR 7206, uBR 10012 and also helped some in California and
Japan .....
If you go ahead and implement this, you might as well get pad in the
back from the management for saving some bucks and your innovative
means.
Good luck,
Raja

Subject: OT: WAN Redundancy with Cable modem
Hi Group,
I work for a company with approximately 12 locations in US east coast.
Currently, our locations are connected via MPLS VPN. All locations have
Primary and Backup circuits to the MPLS VPN.
I have been asked to make WAN more available by having alternate
connection available during outage in MPLS cloud or etc. For this I am
looking at either ISDN circuits (PRI and BRIs) or VPN over business
class cable modem. I like the cable modem option as it provides
redundancy with a very low monthly cost. I am just wondering if anyone
in this group has done this before and can share pros and cons and what
I should be aware of.
TIA
