Yes, that is precisely what we have. We just switched to Shaw a couple months ago, and the XG1 (plus two Arris portals) is what we got for three TV's.

You can use either Coax or CAT5, and the portals all detect each other automatically. Personally I used coax...the network can probably handle the traffic, but I thought it was best to keep it separate.

The picture is great...the XG1's UI is a bit too simplified for my taste, but it's idiot-proof, smooth, and works well.
