Australia's NBN Rolls Out ARRIS's Technology for Nationwide Launch of DOCSIS 3.1

Australia's National Broadband Network (NBN) has started rolling out ARRIS's technology solutions for its nationwide launch of DOCSIS 3.1 to three million premises in major Australian cities by 2020.

This network expansion builds capacity to support the country's current and future broadband services. The evolution of DOCSIS and the HFC network provides a cost-effective way to scale the expansive broadband network, says ARRIS.

The ARRIS technology solutions offer an evolutionary framework to serve Australia's growing connectivity needs. The solutions double the network's capacity today while enabling multi-gigabit, Full Duplex DOCSIS and advanced network innovation for future decades.

ARRIS and NBN also successfully collaborated to deploy the nbn broadband access network's existing DOCSIS 3.0 HFC cable infrastructure, giving ARRIS a unique understanding of the provider's network.
