Harmonic has released an upgrade kit that enables Cisco GS7000 nodes to support the distributed access architecture and DOCSIS 4.0 as the widely-deployed Cisco equipment nears its end-of-life.
Frinx has notched a deal to automate the provisioning of business service customers for the Dutch operator. Frinx says its open source platform can also help cable ops automate the distribution of DOCSIS licenses.
Company claims its software, when tightly integrated with the modem or gateway, provides a fresh way to support app-targeted, low-latency capabilities on DOCSIS networks while still being compatible with the CableLabs specs.
Vendor says its MAC Anywhere play fits with CableLabs new Flexible MAC Architecture (FMA), and also opens the door to potential integrations with third-party cable network hardware suppliers.
