FALL TECHNICAL FORUM SETS CABLE-TEC EXPO RECORDS
WITH 100-PLUS SPEAKERS AND FOUR DOZEN WORKSHOPS
Industry's Premier Engineering Event Scheduled for Oct. 22-25, in Atlanta
JUNE 20, 2018 (Exton, PA)- The largest thought leadership pool in SCTE ISBE Cable-Tec Expo history-more than 100 speakers-will present the newest thinking around cable telecommunications deployment and innovation during the Fall Technical Forum at Cable-Tec Expo 2018, it was announced today by the Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers (SCTE), its global arm, the International Society of Broadband Experts (ISBE), NCTA-The Internet & Television Association, and CableLabs .
The Fall Technical Forum will feature 104 presentations in four dozen workshops-also a record-when Expo is conducted Monday through Thursday, Oct. 22-25, at the Georgia World Congress Center, in Atlanta. Workshops will provide insights into eight areas that are key drivers for cable's current and future success: Wireline; Wireless; Customer Experience; Video; IoT; Cloud; Operations; and Security.
A joint production of SCTE ISBE, NCTA, and CableLabs, the technical workshops will serve as a forum for thought leaders from more than three dozen domestic and international operators and technology partners. Presenting companies include traditional providers of cable products and services as well as a wide range of newer participants such as Guavus, Infinera, XCellAir, Kyrio, Tata Consultancy, Momentum Telecom, Groupe Media TFO, and the University of Waterloo. The SCTE ISBE Cable-Tec Expo 2018 Program Committee, chaired by Kevin Hart, Executive Vice President and Chief Product and Technology Officer for Cox Communications, selected the presenters from 261 abstract submissions.
Individual and Corporate Alliance Partner registration for Expo is available for a limited time, offering significant discounts over late/onsite registration. Registration and additional information on registration options are available here.
In addition to the Fall Technical Forum presenters, nine C-Level speakers, including Hart, have been confirmed, namely: Pat Esser, President of Cox Communications; Michael Powell, President and CEO of NCTA-The Internet & Television Association; Phil McKinney, President and CEO of CableLabs; Tony Werner, President, Technology and Product for Comcast Cable; Shirley Bloomfield, CEO of NTCA-The Rural Broadband Association; Rich Fickle, President and CEO of the National Cable Telecommunications Cooperative (NCTC); Matt Polka, President and CEO of the American Cable Association; and Mark Dzuban, President and CEO of SCTE ISBE.
As new technologies emerge that can drive business results for the industry, more and more thought leaders recognize the value of using Cable-Tec Expo as a platform to share their insights, said Chris Bastian, Senior Vice President, Engineering and CTO of SCTE ISBE. Kevin Hart and the entire Expo Program Committee worked overtime to ensure that the Fall Technical Forum will include the very best and most relevant technical presentations from a bumper crop of submissions.
Among the workshop topics at SCTE ISBE Cable-Tec Expo 2018 are:
The state of the art in FTTH deployments and operational impacts of Distributed Access Architectures (DAA);
Customer benefits from Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning;
An in-depth discussion of industry adoption of High Dynamic Range (HDR) and the implications for cable;
A wide view of Wireless, including DOCSIS , 5G, and the future of broadband connectivity, as well as insights on Wi-Fi access points that dynamically self-adapt;
IoT presentations on SCTE ISBE Standards work and the Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) networks that will play a key role in the connection of IoT devices;
Hybrid cloud solutions that enable scale and low latency and a rundown on virtual CMTS innovation; and
The state of the art in video piracy, and techniques that operators can use to combat it.
More information on Expo workshops will be available shortly on the SCTE ISBE Cable-Tec Expo website at http://expo.scte.org. Exhibit and sponsorship/advertisement information is under the Exhibit tab on the Expo website.
SCTE ISBE Cable-Tec Expo is renowned as the pre-eminent venue that combines the thought leadership, engineering innovation, and deal-making that power the technological future of broadband telecommunications. As a nexus for content and service providers, technology partners, and industry experts, Expo provides rich insights into technologies, products, and services that can generate revenue, streamline operations, and increase customer satisfaction. In conjunction with Expo, the Cable TV Pioneers will conduct their annual banquet on Monday, Oct. 22.
