Technologies on Display
Vecima will host a live demonstration of its Entra vCMTS, part of the Entra Cloud™ platform, with its state-of-the-art, container-native software architecture that delivers the scalability and throughput DOCSIS® 4.0 services require. The Entra vCMTS is currently in a Tier One operator’s lab with several other customer lab engagements planned starting next quarter. In addition, Vecima DOCSIS 3.1 and Unified-Ready DOCSIS 4.0 Remote PHY solutions will be on display in Cox Communications’ booth 2447.
The new Entra vPON Manager™ gives operators robust XGS-PON subscriber management and service provisioning capabilities, plus back-office management integration with telemetry support and an interactive Web UI. Vecima’s Entra EXS1610 All-PON™ Shelf is the first ITU-PON platform supported with vPON Manager, combining scalability with operational simplicity for fiber-to-the-home deployments.
The Entra ERM3 Remote PHY Module, selected for Charter Communications’ network transformation, offers core-neutral Remote PHY implementation that ensures compatibility with all CCAP cores and supports deployment in legacy nodes, such as the Cisco GS7000.
The newEntra EEM210 10G EPON Module is designed for just-in-time fiber-on-demand deployment scenarios, offering integrated BNG/Traffic Management functionality and DOCSIS provisioning, while seamlessly coexisting with Remote PHY modules in the EN9000 node.
Vecima recently announced the first customer shipments of its Entra EN9000, the industry’s first SCTE 273-compliant Generic Access Platform (GAP) node and a finalist in Light Reading’s Leading Lights Awards for Most Innovative Broadband Product or Solution. A North American Tier 1 service provider has already qualified Vecima’s GAP node, which supports Remote PHY and 10G EPON in the same chassis, bridging the transition from cable access to fiber access technology.
Vecima’s “Turbo” DOCSIS 3.1 extends the capabilities of the Entra SC-2D3 and SC-2D4 Remote MACPHY nodes by enabling DOCSIS 4.0 modems to register and support multiple OFDM blocks in downstream operations in a 1.2 GHz hybrid fiber-coax plant, enhancing network capacity and performance. Dell’Oro Group named Vecima the 2023 global market share leader in Remote MACPHY for the third consecutive year.
With its MediaScale Open CDN™ solution, Vecima’s existing edge caching technology enables a broad set of operators ― across North America and the world ― to deliver high quality IP video content to millions of subscribers. Through the application of Open Caching technology, this large cache footprint can be used to bring significant value to content providers and improved customer satisfaction to millions of video subscribers.
MediaScale Dynamic Content & Ad Insertion helps service providers gain control over content by supporting content rights, blackouts, and advertising. By manipulating content at the edge of the network, operators can deliver more efficient, personalized video content and more opportunities to monetize that content with targeted, higher-value ads.
