Harmonic this week announced that it is partnering with Rogers Communications, a leading Canadian technology and media company, to power the company’s next generation multi-gigabit broadband services using Harmonic’s CableOS cloud-native converged core platform.
Rogers is deploying Harmonic’s CableOS Platform in a distributed access architecture (DAA) with virtualized CMTS software and the Ripple Remote-PHY (R-PHY) node.
The CableOS Platform is future ready to support converged cable and FTTH, DOCSIS 4.0 technology and other advanced services including edge cloud. Rogers is using this technology to fully converge its data, voice and video services in the IP domain, which will bring several benefits including faster speed, higher availability for its customers, and a reduction in space, power and cooling costs to support its growing network.
Harmonic's market-leading CableOS Platform powers more than 3 million cable modems for a growing number of innovative cable and fiber operators worldwide, including the largest operators in North America and Europe, and leading service providers in Latin America and Asia.
