Harmonic Announces CableOs Deployment with DSA in Denmark

Harmonic has announced another business win for its CableOs product, with the virtualized cable access solution deployed with DSA, a nonprofit antenna association in Denmark.

The software product will be managed by Harmonic’s local CableOS partner, Infowise.

Earlier this week, Harmonic attributed a 14% spike in Q3 sales to CableOS, which it said is now deployed with 19 cable operators globally.

"Harmonic's CableOS solution will ensure our smooth transition to DOCSIS 3.1, allowing us to efficiently and cost-effectively increase broadband capacity through a flexible architecture to support the deployment of R-PHY in the future,” said Henrik Lindholm, chairman of DSA, in a statement.

"As operators around the world move to DOCSIS 3.1 and roll out Gigabit internet offerings, it's becoming obvious that choosing a software-based CMTS offers distinct advantages over hardware, including operational efficiency, accelerated introduction of new features and scalability," said Gil Katz, senior VP of cable access business operations at Harmonic. "Our CableOS offering features a unique virtualized architecture that empowers cable providers like DSA to deliver fast broadband speeds and significantly reduce their operating expenses."
