ATX Networks, a technology leader of Media Access Platforms, on Wednesday announced a new deployment of its GigaXtend GMC 1.2GHz HFC amplifiers with leading Portuguese communications service provider NOS.
NOS has selected ATX’s GigaXtend GMC Series of 1.2GHz amplifiers to upgrade its installed base of Cisco 1.2GHz GainMaker amplifiers.
NOS’s selection of GigaXtend GMC amplifiers, the only authorized GainMaker-compatible products on the market, enables the service provider to upgrade the capacity and performance of its HFC network while realizing significant reductions in operational costs and complexity. NOS, for example, will not need to retrain technicians or installers, redesign cabinets containing current amps or conduct extensive testing or verification that’s often required with the introduction of new equipment into the network.
NOS completed field testing of the GigaXtend amplifier in 2020. Deployments begin in early 2021.
Jeff Liening, ATX’s Chief Sales Officer
ATX is excited to assist one of Europe’s most innovative and environmentally responsible communications service providers with the expansion of its HFC network. We are working closely with our local partner, REDTEL, to ensure NOS’s outside plant upgrade is as cost efficient and operationally seamless as possible.
