Since launching FDX DOCSIS 4.0 in October 2023, Comcast has scaled the providing to multiple million houses throughout six markets and expects to proceed to speed up the tempo of activation. Amplifiers are a vital element to realising FDX DOCSIS 4.0 throughout Comcast’s footprint, with the present community structure utilising as much as a six-amplifier cascade to achieve clients with multi-gig symmetrical companies. With this primary profitable deployment of CommScope’s FDX amplifier, Comcast has a transparent path to delivering an unparalleled community expertise to houses and companies throughout the U.S.

CommScope delivered the primary prototype Full Duplex DOCSIS (FDX) amplifiers to Comcast’s superior know-how labs in February 2023. Within the following months, Comcast and CommScope undertook programs testing to grasp and implement know-how enhancements upfront of this deployment.

“I am extremely proud to see these major deployment milestones come to fruition with Comcast after our multi-year FDX development efforts,” stated Man Sucharczuk, the SVP and president Entry Community Options. “CommScope continues to push the envelope of DOCSIS technology to extend the utility of customers’ HFC cable access networks. These deployments demonstrate CommScope’s unique capabilities as both a leading RPD Node and RF Amplifier solutions provider.”

“Building a future-proof network demands that we’re continually evolving and refining our hardware and software to support ever-increasing customer demand,” continued Nafshi. “CommScope is a long-standing leader in technology development to support next generation connectivity. Their FDX amplifiers and RPD nodes afford us the flexibility to upgrade legacy hardware or deploy hardware where it makes sense for us and our customers, while delivering all the capacity, power and longevity we’ll need into the future.”
