Cable

Their traditional residential video services threatened by a rising tide of streaming, Over-the-Top (OTT) competitors, cable operators have been steadily transitioning revenue generation to high-speed Internet and commercial services over the past few years. This transition has been accompanied by the need to expand the capacity of their access networks to meet the growing demand for gigabit broadband services and to keep ahead of competitive threats from service providers offering fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) or high-speed wireless services. MSOs are further challenged by the need to evolve to a distributed access architecture (DAA) and by the unprecedented number of technical options the pursuit of that evolution presents. On the commercial side, MSOs require high-performance and cost-effective bulk media distribution solutions that allow them to remain a competitive force in the Multi-Dwelling Unit (MDU) and hospitality segments of the video market.
