Why Upgrading Your GainMaker Amplifiers is as Easy as 1-2-3

…a mid- or high-split boost, is an easy and cost-effective way to address return path congestion. But not every amplifier out there delivers the necessary gain to compensate for cable loss at high-split frequencies. That’s not an issue with GigaXtend GMC amps. Mid-splits, high-splits — no problem. Evaluating We’ve focused meticulous attention on making the introduction of GigaXtend GMC amps… […]

Why Cable Operators are in ‘Good Hands’ with DOCSIS

…the size of the cable operator’s subscriber universe. Cable operators must constantly monitor these variables, often triangulating between costs, timing and competition, to come up with a “best-guess” projection of how they can most effectively manage their HFC-to-FTTH transitions without burning through budget too quickly and without falling behind competitors. Ironically, cable operators may have turned up the heat on… […]
