BigBand Announces Additional SDV Deployments for Cox Communications
May 11 2011 - 3:03AM
Business Wire
BigBand Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:BBND), today announced that Cox
Communications, the third-largest U.S. cable operator, has further
expanded its switched digital video (SDV) architecture to new
markets with BigBand's SDV solution. Deployed in both Motorola and
Cisco set-top box environments, Cox uses the solution to deliver
more HDTV programming and services to more screens by increasing
the bandwidth efficiency of its network.
Cox began deploying the BigBand SDV solution in 2007. This
latest expansion allows Cox to leverage its existing network
infrastructure investments and send more high-quality programming
to its subscribers without service disruption.
“SDV is one of our key tools to address the bandwidth demands
critical to delivering a wide variety of quality programming and
services to our customers,” said James Kelso, Vice President of
Video Engineering for Cox Communications. “BigBand continues to
demonstrate that they have the processes and support mechanisms
that make it easy to deploy SDV with minimum impact to our
operations and resources.”
“We believe that SDV is the best choice for today's MSOs seeking
to reclaim bandwidth so they can offer more HD, VOD and other
personalized services to their subscribers across any viewing
screen. Cox was an early adopter of SDV architecture, and it is an
honor to be selected by them again,” said Amir Bassan-Eskenazi,
CEO, President and Co-founder of BigBand Networks.
