Insights
This sale marks a significant milestone for CommScope, demonstrating rapid integration and market traction following their acquisition of Casa Systems' cable assets. The deal with Kábelszatnet in Hungary showcases the company's ability to leverage newly acquired technology to penetrate European markets. The vCCAP (virtual Converged Cable Access Platform) solution is a strategic offering that aligns with the industry trend towards virtualization and Distributed Access Architecture (DAA).
Key benefits for Kábelszatnet include:
- Improved network performance and agility
- Faster time-to-market for new services
- Reduced power consumption and headend space requirements
- Cost-effective network modernization
- Validates their acquisition strategy
- Strengthens their position in the evolving cable infrastructure market
- Potentially opens doors for similar deals in other European markets
The deployment of CommScope's vCCAP solution in Hungary represents a significant shift in cable network architecture. By moving DOCSIS signal generation from specialized hardware to virtualized platforms and Distributed Access Architecture (DAA), Kábelszatnet is embracing a more flexible and efficient network model. This approach offers several technical advantages:
- Improved scalability: vCCAP allows for easier capacity expansion without hardware limitations
- Enhanced network management: Centralized, automated provisioning and monitoring streamline operations
- Future-proofing: Software-based solutions are more adaptable to evolving standards and technologies
- Reduced operational costs: Using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) servers instead of proprietary hardware can lead to significant savings
vCCAP to support significant Distributed Access Architecture deployment in
CommScope’s vCMTS and QAM video solution will be the key operating component of Kábelszatnet’s DAA deployment, which will enable Kábelszatnet to move DOCSIS® signal generation from specialized CCAP or CMTS hardware to the R-PHY shelves and DC2180 nodes. CommScope’s vCMTS and QAM video solution is an agile, flexible solution that will support the introduction of new network services in Kábelszatnet’s cable access network more quickly and efficiently than hardware-based CMTS platforms. This agility includes centralized, automated provisioning, configuration, and monitoring of the R-PHY shelves, the DC2180 nodes, and other devices throughout the network. CommScope’s vCMTS and QAM video solution runs on commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) servers, enabling Kábelszatnet to realize significant energy and cost savings in the headend.
“The introduction of the CommScope’s vCMTS and QAM video solution in tandem with a DAA deployment will significantly optimize the performance of Kábelszatnet’s network,” said Csaba Tarczi, CTO of Kábelszatnet Group. “By extending the edge of the network into CommScope’s DAA devices, we can offer our subscribers new, cutting-edge services and, at the same time, get those services to market more quickly, more efficiently, and more cost-effectively than ever before. We’re also pleased that CommScope’s vCMTS and QAM video solution will use less power and take up less headend space to support these improved services.”
Kábelszatnet will deploy CommScope’s vCMTS and QAM video solution to a nationally accessible hub and the DAA nodes and R-PHY shelves in select areas of the company’s network. The vCMTS and QAM video solution will operate in the cloud to complement Kábelszatnet existing population of chassis-based E6000® Controlled Edge Routers (CER). CommScope channel partner HFC Technics will work in tandem with Kábelszatnet to install and integrate the vCMTS and QAM video solution and DAA devices into the network.
“We’re thrilled to be placing CommScope’s vCMTS and QAM video solution with valued customers so soon after the acquisition of Casa’s cable network assets,” said Guy Sucharczuk, SVP & President Access Network Solutions. “Along with our modular DAA nodes and R-PHY shelf solutions, the vCMTS and QAM video solution offers service providers an elegant and cost-effective way to revolutionize network operations seamlessly and efficiently. Our rapid integration of Casa products into our portfolio is also a testament to outstanding teamwork shown by Casa and CommScope employees in integrating the two companies and getting our sales teams prepared to present solutions like the vCMTS and QAM video solution to customers sooner rather than later.”
CommScope’s acquisition of Casa’s System’s cable assets further expands the company’s comprehensive portfolio of end-to-end HFC, DAA, and PON products to include virtualized CMTS operation. Other Casa cable assets acquired by CommScope include a virtual Broadband Network Gateway (vBNG) and two CMTS systems, the hardware-based C100G CMTS, and the hardware-based C40G Converged Cable Access Platform (CCAP).
