Vecima Introduces Industry's First Compact Generic Access Platform (GAP) Node Designed for 4 GHz

Business Wire02-06-2025

VICTORIA, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vecima Networks Inc. (VCM: TSX) today announced the launch of its Entra EN3400 Compact Generic Access Platform (GAP) Node, deployed as either a two-port, Remote PHY (R-PHY)-enabled cable access node supporting DOCSIS 4.0 or a two-port All-PON™ node.
In October 2021, Vecima announced the Entra EN9000, the world's first commercially available GAP node, which is now in broad deployment with a Tier 1 Broadband Service Provider in North America. The EN3400 Compact GAP Node is a future-proof, 'Forever Node' with a 4.0 GHz-capable housing supporting the same DOCSIS 3.1 Remote PHY and 10G-EPON modules as the EN9000 today, while seamlessly evolving to XGS-PON, DOCSIS 4.0, NRoC (New Radio over Coax) and future HFC and PON solutions.
Building on the interoperability of the EN9000, its open architecture allows operators to select the best solutions from a variety of vendors, driving down costs and ensuring network agility and scalability. Through future module upgrades for Unified DOCSIS 4.0, the EN3400 is targeting delivery of up to 20 Gbps downstream and 6 Gbps upstream as a Distributed Access Architecture (DAA) cable access node.
In addition, the EN3400 offers flexible power options, including both standard AC power and 60/90V cable powering to support multi-dwelling unit, enterprise, and hospitality applications. This flexibility translates into significant long-term savings and operational efficiency by reducing the need for frequent hardware upgrades or replacements.
'The Entra EN3400 is the latest product from Vecima, building on the success of the original EN9000 GAP Node,' said Ryan Nicometo, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Video & Broadband Solutions. 'Designed for 4 GHz, the EN3400 is a high-performance, multi-application solution with a unique form factor suitable for MDU, hospitality, and enterprise deployments long into the future.'

Liberty Global Chooses CommScope to Support DOCSIS 4.0 DAA Deployment in Europe

CLAREMONT, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CommScope (NASDAQ: COMM), a global leader in network connectivity, announced today that Liberty Global has chosen CommScope to upgrade several networks for virtualized Distributed Access Architecture (DAA) operation in Europe. Liberty Global, a provider of converged broadband, video and mobile communications services will upgrade the DOCSIS ® fixed access networks of some of its affiliates, including VodafoneZiggo in The Netherlands, Telenet (Wyre) in Belgium and Sunrise in Switzerland. The network upgrades include CommScope's cloud-native vCCAP Evo™ virtualized Converged Cable Access Platform, which will provide significant enhancements to Liberty Global's service offerings and supplement currently deployed chassis-based CMTS/CCAP cores. The addition of the vCCAP Evo solution will enable Liberty Global to cost-effectively address evolving density, throughput and efficiency requirements. Furthermore, it allows them to rapidly adopt new headend technologies as such changes become available and nimbly pivot to support new enhanced multigigabit service tiers. 'Network upgrades are always complex,' commented Colin Buechner, managing director Fixed Network, Liberty Global. 'But CommScope went the extra mile for us and worked closely with our architecture, engineering and operations teams to develop a DOCSIS 4.0 network platform that would meet or exceed our specifications. With the vCCAP Evo solution we can now introduce multigigabit network speeds of up to at least 8 Gbps to our subscribers while cost effectively enhancing user experiences in a highly competitive market. Better yet, the network upgrades will require less power to run than our current deployments, so the new deployments will be more environmentally friendly than legacy technologies.' The system upgrades also include major deployments of CommScope's new DC2182 DOCSIS 4.0 1.8GHz cabinet-style DAA node, highly optimized for European applications. The DC2182 node will contain the RD1710-U2 Remote PHY Device (RPD) that enables DOCSIS 4.0 capabilities and capacities in a small form factor. The DC2182 deployment will prepare the operators' outside plant infrastructure for 1.8GHz ESD (Extended Spectrum DOCSIS) capability. The DAA upgrade will provide several operating benefits, including better spectral efficiencies and expanded wavelength capacities. 'We're thrilled that Liberty Global has selected CommScope's solutions and expertise to support their network upgrade deployment. We are uniquely positioned to tailor our solutions around our customers' needs; in this case it has been a pleasure to work through a plan with Liberty Global,' stated Guy Sucharczuk, SVP & president, Access Network Solutions, CommScope. 'We've always taken an agnostic approach to evolving access network technologies; therefore, we can support any technology deployment a customer chooses. Companies like Liberty Global can confidently leverage our team's deep technical expertise and extensive product knowledge to evolve or even remake their networks quickly and economically.'

Broadband Access Equipment Revenue Declines 8 Percent Due to Soft China Market While EMEA Shines, According to Dell'Oro Group

Residential Wi-Fi 7 Router Shipments Increased 1341 Percent Y/Y, Driven by Lower-Cost Dual-Band Units REDWOOD CITY, Calif., June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, security, networks, and data center industries, total global revenue for the Broadband Access equipment market decreased to $4.4 B in 1Q 2025, down 8 percent Q/Q but flat year-over-year (Y/Y). All eyes are on the second quarter, as the impact of tariffs and the potential for a global slowdown in macroeconomic growth will likely be seen then in terms of shipments and revenue. "Despite a high level of uncertainty about the global macroeconomic environment, broadband service providers in North America and EMEA continue to move forward with their fiber expansion plans, as evidenced by solid purchases of new OLT ports in both regions this quarter," said Jeff Heynen, Vice President with Dell'Oro Group. "On the flip side, cable operators dramatically reduced their spend on new Remote PHY Devices (RPDs), as they await new units that support a unified approach to DOCSIS 4.0," explained Heynen. Additional highlights from the 1Q 2025 Broadband Access and Home Networking quarterly report: Spending on 5G Fixed Wireless CPE reached another record high this quarter, as operators in the US, India, and a growing list of markets continue to expand their Fixed Wireless Access subscribers. Spending on DOCSIS infrastructure declined 34 percent from 4Q 2024, due almost exclusively to a 62 percent sequential decline in spending on RPDs. PON ONT unit shipments were up 1 percent Y/Y, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of Y/Y growth, as fiber ISPs focus on adding subscribers and increasing take rates.
