Vecima Networks: Entra EN8800U Access Node for DOCSIS 4.0 Remote PHY
Vecima Networks’ Entra EN8800U Access Node for DOCSIS 4.0 Remote PHY provides a software-upgradeable path for operators migrating from DOCSIS 3.1 to DOCSIS 4.0. The Entra EN8800U introduces intelligence at the edge, enabling electronic tilt adjustment and complete monitoring without manual field intervention. Cable operators have visibility into node performance, allowing proactive maintenance and optimized service assurance. With support for 1.8 GHz, the EN8800U unlocks new upstream and downstream capacity. The product can also accommodate extended spectrum, Full Duplex DOCSIS (FDX), and a flexible split architecture ensures deployment flexibility across diverse network topologies.
Judge’s Comment: “This is exactly the type of modularity cable operators are looking for when they upgrade their networks to Remote PHY and DOCSIS 4.0. The ability to deliver XGS-PON out of the same node is a key differentiator.”
