Super HD and Open Connect

I stream movies from Netflix and notice that many of these movies advertise Super HD (1080p).  I am using two devices to stream:  a Samsung 2012 model smart TV and Roku 2XS.  It is my understanding that Cox Roanoke must be utilizing a service known as Open Connect in order to stream Super HD.  Does anyone know if they do so?  Thanks in Advance!!

On 9/26, Netflix SuperHD was actually opened up to all Netflix customers as long as they have sufficient bandwidth (about 5-8 Mbps for regular video, up to 6-12Mbps for 3D video, plus added overhead if you're doing home networking): http://blog.netflix.com/2013/09/highest-quality-hd-now-available-to-all.html

So as long as you have Preferred High-Speed Internet, you're good to go.
