Cable Modem

Hello,

Is Cable Modem different from general modems?

We know that modem converts analog signals into digital signals and vise versa but what about cable modem? Does cable modem only converts sound signals(sound waves) into digital signals and converts it back to sound signals at the other end?


I hope my question is clear
