PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 20,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Excited to walk the talk on
the cable industry's 10G vision, Teleste is pleased to announce
that a 1.8 GHz end-to-end network test has been successfully
completed at a '10G Showcase' organized by leading U.S. cable
operator Charter Communications during the SCTE Cable-Tec Expo 2022
this week. Following the DOCSIS® 4.0 Extended Spectrum DOCSIS (ESD)
amplifier cascade demonstration carried out with CableLabs earlier
this year, this new demonstration further validates the cable
industry's capabilities to achieve its symmetrical multi-gigabit
services to the home. A path is now set out for operators looking
to continuously increase data transmission speed and capacity in
their hydrid fiber-coax (HFC) networks.
In the demonstration, an end-to-end 1.8 GHz system was created
with equipment from Teleste and other cable equipment vendors to
showcase the performance of DOCSIS 4.0 technology. The demo setup
including five cascaded amplifiers and a booster from Teleste's 1.8
GHz ICON family, and the implemented network simulated the
amplifier cascades becoming more typical with Distributed Access
networks, confirming that the 1.8 GHz technology enables drop-in
upgrades to existing amplifier locations.
"An important promise for the cable MSO community is that the
1.8 GHz technology allows them to keep the existing amplifier
locations without relocating them to shorten the coax sections
in-between, said Hanno Narjus, Head of Teleste's Networks
business. "We are pleased to have been able to demonstrate that,
as a potential building block of the future 10G upgrades, this
promise can be fulfilled."
Teleste continues to be a leader in HFC technologies and
leverages its RF engineering capability and the automation that
comes with intelligent amplifiers. The first 1.8 GHz amplifiers in
our Intelligent Networks portfolio were introduced in 2021,
including the intelligent ICON4300 amplifier newly awarded by
Broadband Technology Report in the 2022 Diamond Technology Reviews.
In addition to enabling multi-gigabit broadband speeds, the native
intelligence of our 1.8 GHz amplifiers will potentially be a true
game changer for operators, as their maintenance and management no
longer requires highly-trained technicians and their ability to
self-balance will reduce periods of poor network performance and
service issues when external environment impacts plant
conditions.

intelligent technology can bring to cable networks and what
adopting the higher frequencies will demand from operators. Please,

Cable-Tec Expo, taking place 19-22 September, to explore the topics
with our experts in closer detail.
