Vecima to Demonstrate Cloud-native Broadband Access and Efficient, AI-powered Video Streaming Solutions at ANGA COM 2025
Vecima Networks Inc. (TSX: VCM) will highlight its flexible and interoperable Entra Cloud™ platform, featuring cloud-native solutions with the scalability and throughput required for DOCSIS® 4.0, XGS-PON, 50G, and beyond. Vecima’s MediaScale Open CDN™ and KeyFrame™ AI-powered media optimization solutions help reduce cost and improve video quality for streaming subscribers.
Cloud-native technologies to be on display
Entra vCMTS, part of the Entra Cloud platform, provides the scalability and throughput required for DOCSIS® 4.0 services. It features an open, cloud-native design, fully containerized and dynamically scalable for operators of every size at market-leading densities. Entra vCMTS is designed to maximize reliability while minimizing space, power, and cost. It’s interoperable with the new Entra Automation solutions, Vecima’s widely deployed Remote PHY Devices (RPDs), and many third-party vendors, delivering reliable, multi-vendor network performance.
Cox Communications, one of the largest broadband providers in the U.S., has selected Vecima to deploy the Entra vCMTS to modernize and enhance its DOCSIS network. Cox will migrate its DOCSIS network to the Entra vCMTS platform.
Entra vPON Manager for XGS-PON gives operators robust subscriber management and service provisioning capabilities, plus back-office management integration with telemetry support and an interactive, simplified Web UI. Vecima’s Entra EXS1610 All-PON™ Shelf is the first ITU-PON platform supported with vPON Manager, combining scalability with operational simplicity for fiber-to-the-home deployments.
Entra Cloud’s unique applications simplify and accelerate orchestration, provisioning, deployment, and management of Distributed Access Architecture (DAA) networks:
- Entra Access Controller – Centralized, simple, and intuitive configuration and management of all attached network devices
- Entra Standalone Principal Core – Automation-driven solution to deliver interoperability, scalability, and high availability for onboarding and managing thousands of RPDs
- Entra Access Test Platform – Automated, seamless testing and optimized network deployment solutions to accelerate DAA device and service readiness with unmatched precision and scalability
- Entra Access Simulators – Through simulation of RPDs, Optical Line Terminals (OLTs) and customer premises equipment (CPE), operators can identify bottlenecks, prevent failures, and make informed capacity planning decisions to ensure seamless operations
Featured 10G PON Fiber & DAA Cable Access products
- The Entra EXS1610 All-PON Shelf allows Broadband Service Providers (BSPs) to selectively deploy fiber to the home in any market hub or outside plant cabinet deployment, allowing maximum flexibility to deploy fiber access solutions based on subscriber need. The EXS1610 interoperates seamlessly with 10 different optical network unit (ONU) vendors, enabling operators to independently select the ONU vendor of their choice.
- The Entra SC-1D Entra Access Node offers DAA R-MACPHY in a compact, European form factor. With the SC-1D, BSPs can deploy gigabit broadband and new services to residential subscribers and businesses. Dell’Oro Group recently named Vecima as the 2024 global revenue share leader in R-MACPHY devices.
- The Entra EN2112 R-PHY Access Node is a high-density, compact, two-port node that’s interoperable with third-party converged cable access platform (CCAP) cores and vCMTS, creating an open, flexible DAA ecosystem. Supporting architectures that push fiber deeper into the network, the EN2112 allows BSPs to optimize existing hybrid fiber coax (HFC) network capacity and deliver increased bandwidth to subscribers.
Featured media optimization solutions
Vecima is the exclusive global provider of Digital Harmonic’s KeyFrame™ Media Optimization Solution, which enables Content Providers and BSPs to elevate video quality using real-time generative AI while simultaneously reducing bitrates.
With dh/KeyFrame, network operators can dramatically improve video quality while simultaneously reducing required bitrates. This patented technology not only ensures true 1080p and 4K, but also features advanced denoising and artifact removal, spatial and temporal anti-aliasing, and artifact-free upscaling. In addition, it can significantly reduce bitrates, resulting in substantial cost savings in both storage and transmission.
With MediaScale Open CDN, content owners can cut video streaming congestion, public CDN costs, and latency, and BSPs can monetize the content they’re already delivering. Open CDN delivers video streaming at the highest available bitrates, with zero rebuffering and at an energy-efficient 235 Mbps per watt, while providing the lowest cost of ownership available.
