IP Service Assurance Solutions for Cable Operators
The torrid growth in cable network traffic accelerated by the adoption of broadband Internet access, triple-play, IPTV and the move toward IP-based communications continues to drive up demand for cable services. IP has become the convergence and transformation agent for cable distribution, regional and core networks, enabling new service offerings and simplifying network operations, while significantly reducing total cost of ownership.
However, to fully capitalize on the significant market opportunities, cable operators need detailed IP packet-level insight and end-to-end visibility into the service, subscriber and network domains.
