Good news !!!
Cable operators are poised to report another strong year of broadband
subscriber growth in 2021 on the heels of last year’s record-breaking increases
Looking beyond simply the migration from coaxial cable to fiber networks, the
report takes into consideration important technical matters such as cable MSO
converged IP/MPLS network architectures, IoT networks, and functionality.
Coming days …Cable MSOs have a key role in consumer IoT and connected
homes
Strategic focus of cable MSOs is optimal infrastructure and ensuring high-
quality services
Successful cable MSOs will successfully leverage Multi-Access Edge
Computing infrastructure

 Competition :
•Due to the commercial introduction of 5G, and more specifically 5G
New Radio (5GNR), cable MSO providers will have new competition
from wireless carriers for connectivity, especially for enterprise
communications. More specifically, 5GNR uses millimeter-wave RF
propagation, which enables both high capacity and low latency data
transport as a competitive offering to fiber and cable.
•Cellular network operators will go head-to-head with cable
companies for many of their B2B services including business Internet
and backhaul solutions.

QUALITY & CONTROL DEMAND vs CAPACITY
Challenge to: Pressure to:
– Get full visibility over Infrastructure robustness – Reduce costs
– Keep control over QoS – Speed up deployments and activation

SHORTAGE OF EXPERTISE LOW TEST GEAR BUDGET HEAVY TEST PROCESSES

Reduction in: Resulting in:  Increasing:
– Installation quality – Lack of right tools for the job – Human errors
– Field technician efficiency – Cut on maintenance of optical tools – Truck rolls
– Deployment/Repair delays
