Highlighted Products and Technologies
NSG Exo Distributed CCAP System
At Cable Tech Show 2015, Harmonic will showcase the NSG Exo distributed CCAP system, a high-performance cable edge device for the delivery of video, data and voice services over coax. Compact and cost-effective, NSG Exo moves a service provider s RF requirements out of the headend or hub and places them deep in the fiber network, simplifying headend design and operation to resolve space and power constraints, lower capital and operational expenses and provide service flexibility.
One of the industry s first offerings to support a Distributed Access Architecture, the CCAP-ready NSG Exo delivers CMTS services today. The ability to leverage standard DOCSIS back-office provisioning and DOCSIS cable modems, while supporting a mix of FTTx and coax customers over the same network, allows service providers and premise owners to utilize a single device to deliver triple-play services to dense pockets of coax infrastructure, such as multiple dwelling units, office buildings, college campuses and hospitality locations. The result is an increased opportunity to generate new revenue streams.
