On April 4, the cable ecosystem is coming together to connect, as we do once a year, for a soup-to-nuts overview of the cable industry. Cable operators, device manufacturers and providers of products or services for IoT, security, medical and network technologies are arriving in Boulder, Colorado to participate. Senior Executives from CableLabs member companies […]

Last week, CableLabs Distinguished Technologist Steve Jia posted a blog “Doubling up on Fiber Capacity: A Winning Strategy for Full Duplex Coherent Optics.” In that blog, Steve describes how the CableLabs Full Duplex Coherent Optics innovation doubles the bi-directional capacity of each cable access network fiber, multiplies the capacity of each existing access network fiber […]

Application developers drive cloud-platform innovation by continuously pushing the envelope when it comes to defining requirements for the underlying platform. In the emerging application programming interface (API) and algorithm economy, developers are leveraging a variety of tools and already-built services to rapidly create new applications. Edge computing and Internet-of-Things (IoT) use cases require platforms that […]
