My company's architecture is perfectly fine for today and the future.
We are not concerned about greater bandwidth capacity, better performance and reliability, limiting signal egress, freeing up headend space, reducing power demand in the outside plant, or controlling operating costs.
Great! Some companies are just fine being at the back of the pack.
My company is committed to taking advantage of technologies that help us stay ahead of customer demands, and manage CAPEX and OPEX.
FTTP is the only way to take network systems into the future and we are ready to shake the money trees for the CAPEX to make it happen.
-
Awesome! It’s nice when money is no object.
We want to be smart about controlling costs and leveraging our legacy HFC network as we enhance service.
-
We have a Node + 0 architecture
- The Intercept platform of products helps MSOs optimize current infrastructure to meet data rate promises, while controlling OPEX and CAPEX
-
Our network is currently FTTLA or FTTT
- The Intercept eHFC Lancet optical taps deliver xPON, CATV video, and DOCSIS data transmission together over a single network using WDM technology.
-
We are concerned about symmetry and flexibility
- Intercept eHFC technology operates in the Ultra Wide Band frequencies which provides more than enough bandwidth to equalize upstream with downstream
-
We are looking for efficiency and value in our upgrade choices
- Dollar comparisons
-
Easy compatibility with DOCSIS 3.1 is important
- The Intercept eHFC platform are designed for interoperability and simplicity of implementation with existing DOCSIS and xPON infrastructure and components.
-
All or more than one of these considerations apply to my company
- Expanded product description
- Money – CAPEX & OPEX
- Efficiency and maintenance
- Quality of service
- Market forces – FiOS, Google Fiber
