interoperable, cloud-native applications

Vecima Networks Inc. (TSX: VCM) today announced the Entra®
Virtualized Cable Modem Termination System (vCMTS) as part of its
Entra Cloud™ platform of open, interoperable, cloud-native
applications that help cable operators transform their networks for
next-generation broadband access. Entra vCMTS is built from the
ground up to provide the scalability and throughput required for
DOCSIS® 4.0 services.
The Entra vCMTS features an open, cloud-native design that is
fully containerized and dynamically scalable for operators of every
size at market-leading densities. Built on field-proven Vecima
DOCSIS® technology, it is designed to maximize performance while
minimizing space, power, and cost. It is interoperable with
Vecima’s widely deployed Remote PHY Devices (RPDs) and Vecima is
fully committed to interoperability with other vendors.
Available for commercial off-the-shelf server hardware, the
Entra vCMTS leverages Vecima’s simplified host operating system and
container orchestration methodology for maximum security and
efficiency. By combining both Application Programming Interface
(API) and Command Line Interface (CLI) approaches in one, the Entra
vCMTS is a workforce multiplier for operators, offering a
streamlined path for operators to transition from legacy platforms
to a modern, highly automated, and high-reliability virtual DOCSIS
platform.
“The Entra vCMTS represents our legacy of innovation and our
commitment to providing open, flexible, and interoperable solutions
that address the evolving and pressing needs in the market,” said
Colin Howlett, Chief Technology Officer at Vecima. “Vecima leads
the industry in DOCSIS DAA interoperability and we’re proud to
bring this innovative platform to market.”
The platform is currently entering lab trials with a Tier 1
operator in North America and will be ready for field trials
worldwide in the fourth quarter of calendar 2024.
“Through over a decade of pioneering investment and development
of Distributed Access Architecture, Vecima has built the
comprehensive Entra portfolio with the singular purpose of
supporting our operator partners as they transform their
world-leading networks to the multigigabit era,” said Sumit Kumar,
Vecima President and CEO. “At our core, we believe these networks
fuel global progress and empower communities everywhere. Our
market-leading software that powers our entire Cable Access
portfolio is flexible by design, and the virtualized Entra Cloud™
platform is a natural next step to once more support every operator
with any architecture, underpinned by the common engine of our
leading DAA intellectual property.”
