(TSX: VCM) today announced a strategic, multi-year agreement with Spectrum to enable its next-generation DOCSIS/HFC and Fiber Access network. As part of the agreement, Spectrum will deploy Vecima’s Entra ERM422, the world’s first DOCSIS 4.0 Dual Downstream Service Group RPD and continue to deploy the Entra SF-4X PON Remote OLT, the world’s market share leader, according to Dell’Oro Group.\n \n\n\n Advancing DOCSIS 4.0 Cable Access\n \n\n\n The Entra ERM4 Series is a high-density RPD, designed for DOCSIS 4.0 deployments. Building on Vecima’s field-proven RPD technology, it provides operators with a dedicated DOCSIS 4.0 module that seamlessly integrates into Vecima Access Nodes, including the EN9000 GAP Node, EN8000 series nodes, and select third-party nodes. The ERM4 can be combined with Entra\n \n ®\n \n EEM210, a two-port Fiber-on-Demand module, to provide FTTH services from the same node platform.\n \n\n At SCTE TechExpo25, Vecima demonstrated the Entra vCMTS powering the ERM422, showcased in the EN9000 Generic Access Platform (GAP) and EN8800U node platforms. The ERM422 supports more than 20 Gbps per RPD, an unparalleled technological achievement. This next-gen solution is reliable, flexible, and simplified for Spectrum deployments today while supporting broadband capacity needs for years to come.\n \n\n\n Ready for 50G-PON with the Entra SF-4X\n \n\n\n In addition, Spectrum will continue its nationwide deployment of Vecima’s Entra SF-4X Remote OLT. Vecima showcased the industry’s first 50G-PON migration path at TechExpo25, supporting simultaneous operation of 10G-EPON...
