During the SCTE 2024 TechExpo, broadband vendors and manufacturers displayed their solutions and products aimed to support the expanding broadband market.
In part two of our SCTE 2024 product showcase, we highlight innovations from OpenVault, Teleste, and Nokia. Check out part one here.
OpenVault
Vantage
OpenVault’s Vantage is an optimization platform that integrates three OpenVault products: Proactive Network Maintenance (PNM) with Alarming, Profile Management Application (PMA), and Congestion Management into a single pane of glass. The solution also includes the company’s new maintenance-automating AI Help Desk.
Vantage leverages ML-driven closed-loop automation and a modular architecture to improve network resiliency, optimize available capacity, identify network impairments and prioritize their repair. The solution is designed to allow broadband providers to maintain subscriber satisfaction and can be deployed in the cloud or on-premise.
Teleste
Intercept EDGe series rOLTs and Open PON Solutions
Teleste Intercept’s EDGe series promises efficient and versatile functionality across a comprehensive XGSPON ecosystem. The portfolio includes a full range of multi-vendor supported ONTs, Microplug OLTs, and Tibit-optimized carrier-class servers and switches.
The EDGe series switches provide a platform for disaggregated XGSPON deployments, and the Disaggregated Open PON solutions are optimized for the Tibit portfolio of Microplug OLTs, which provide cost and space savings compared to aggregated solutions.
The solution is scalable and modular, allowing the launching of P2P, P2MP, wireless backhaul, and XGSPON from a single converged backplane.
Nokia
DOCSIS Provisioning Adapter (DPA)
Nokia has partnered with ZCorum to develop a DOCSIS Provisioning Adapter (DPA) application that will allow cable operators to use an existing DOCSIS-based provisioning system to provision an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) and subscriber services on an ITU-based Passive Optical Network (PON).
The Nokia DPA bridges the DOCSIS-based management system and Nokia’s open and programmable platform Altiplano Access Controller. The solution promises to simplify the evolution of Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) while also distributing adoption costs and expediting time-to-market.
Nokia expects its DPA application to be available for lab trials by the end of 2024.
