PR Newswire (US)
SUWANEE, Ga., Dec. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ARRIS (NASDAQ:ARRS)
announced today that it has successfully demonstrated several key
technical interoperable capabilities using its EuroDOCSIS 3.0 C4®
CMTS, D5(TM) Universal Edge QAM (UEQ) and Touchstone(TM) TM722
telephony modem during its participation in the recent Cable Europe
Labs Interop Event, hosted at Excentis. "ARRIS participated in the
event to re-enforce the power of EuroDOCSIS and CMTS specifications
which are well defined, specified and administered standards," said
Charles Cheevers, ARRIS CTO Europe. "From an ARRIS perspective we
have implemented the standards and added our own compelling
features and functionality which were all shown to work in a highly
mixed vendor environment. In particular we are very confident that
we have the technologies capable of keeping Cable Operators at the
front of the Entertainment to the Home industry with robust and
scalable Data, Voice, MPEG and IP Video solutions." "The link
between specifications for equipment and interoperability is
crucial. The result is providing a stamp of approval which
ultimately translates into reliability for cable customers who, of
course, want to continue buying into the best offerings on the
market," said Cable Europe Labs Managing Director, Malcolm Taylor.
"It's important that vendors can continue to deliver equipment that
complies with the latest standards and capabilities. Events like
this are critical in helping bring the latest technologies to
market which keep cable ahead on both speed and performance." "This
has been a very exciting and successful event for ARRIS," noted
Claudio Cerioli, ARRIS' Senior Vice President, EMEA. "It proves
that our CMTS, Universal Edge QAM and CPE products can be relied
upon to perform at top capacity in multiple vendor scenarios,
including robust EuroDOCSIS 3.0-based services in both I-CMTS and
M-CMTS architectures. This gives our current and future customers
the confidence they need to deploy multi-vendor solutions and
widens their choices as they look for the most reliable, scalable
and available solutions possible." About ARRIS ARRIS is a global
