Huawei drives video and broadband service transformation for MSOs

[Philadelphia, US, September 27, 2016] Huawei today unveiled the industry's first DOCSIS prototype to support a downstream rate of 25Gbps as well as a series of E2E solutions intended for global Multi-System Operators (MSOs) at the SCTE Cable Tec Expo 2016 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The solutions are aimed at helping MSOs achieve video and broadband service transformation and enhance their competitiveness in the digital era.

Huawei Exhibits Hybrid Video Solutions and Gigaband Network Solutions

The DOCSIS prototype Huawei launched demonstrates that DOCSIS technology can extend the spectrum to 3 GHz, which ensures high-quality UHDTV experience for users. Huawei’s , innovation in coaxial cable technologies will boost MSOs' confidence in building Gigabit networks with existing coaxial cables, which is the focus of the Cable Tec Expo.

Huawei also presented a series of video and broadband E2E solutions that increase MSOs' service and network capabilities and ensure a premium video experience for end users. In the Hybrid Video solution, Huawei will help MSOs build next-generation video platforms and deliver a range of TV services through an integrated delivery process.

Huawei's 10Gbps hybrid fiber coaxial (HFC) access platform, which realizes one-stop DOCSIS 3.1 deployment, helps MSOs achieve integrated network construction and IP-based video service transformation. It enables MSOs to build all-digital networks and cuts the total cost of ownership (TCO) by 30%.

The Giga transport solution supports an ultra-large capacity and high-quality transmission, ensuring that SDN technology-based optical networks achieve better flexibility and higher efficiency.

In addition, Huawei released a Giga backhaul solution to help MSOs build future-oriented IP backhaul networks. These networks support multi-service access and adopt NP-based programmable architectures, which ensure convenient deployment and a smooth service evolution.

To meet the rapidly emerging demand for connected equipment that will increase MSOs’ competitive abilities, MSOs are demanding fast transformation to create a competitive edge and increase revenues. Using Huawei’s strategies, MSOs will be able to offer high-quality multi-screen video services to achieve fast transformation and enhance broadband performance to ensure a premium user experience. Huawei is actively innovating cable technologies and has provided innovative cable solutions for multiple global MSOs, driving video and broadband service transformation.

The SCTE Cable-Tec Expo 2016 runs from September 27–29, 2016 in Philadelphia, at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Huawei is exhibiting in booth #1471.
