Altice is to deploy Arris E6000 Converged Edge Routers as it looks to launch gigabit speed broadband services to homes in France, the Dominican Republic and the United States.
The routers will run high-speed internet in SFR in France and Orange-Tricom in The Dominican Republic and the recently acquired US operator Suddenlink Communications.
“Altice is fast-becoming a major player in the global pay TV market, and it’s an exciting time for Arris to be collaborating with operators from the Altice Group around the world. Selecting the Arris E6000 CER is a strategic technology investment for Altice that benefits its global operations today and into the future,” said Bruce McClelland, President of Network & Cloud, Global Services at Arris. “These deployments further cement the Arris E6000 CER as the leading CCAP solution for operators who want the best technology to meet the crucial demand for higher broadband speeds as more and more devices become connected in the home.”
Arris says the DOCSIS 3.1 capable router also enables significant operational savings in terms of rack-space real estate, power consumption and cooling requirements.
