Gigabit Speeds Lure Cable Operators to Invest Rapidly in DOCSIS 3.1, According to Dell'Oro GroupREDWOOD CITY, Calif., Dec. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- As reported in a recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, networks, and data center IT industries, the lure of gigabit speeds pushed cable operators to build out their infrastructure and invest rapidly in DOCSIS 3.1. 3Q16 was the third consecutive quarter of strong double-digit year-over-year growth for cable infrastructure equipment (CMTS). 2016 has been a good year for infrastructure investments while 2017 will be good for CPE investments. "The Cable CMTS market grew 22 percent year-over-year in the third quarter. The market is dominated by Arris and Cisco with Cisco's strength in the quarter driving the market," said Alam Tamboli, Senior Analyst at Dell'Oro Group. "Cable operators are betting that gigabit speeds will help them penetrate the small Enterprise market. In 2017, we expect that DOCSIS 3.1 infrastructure will be more ubiquitous and pervasive throughout Cable operators' networks. Spending on Cable CPE devices will increase dramatically as Cable operatorsfocus on delivering much faster speeds to customers to better compete with telecom operators deploying PON and G.fast technologies. Currently, Arris and Technicolor dominate the Cable CPE market," Tamboli added. About the Report About Dell'Oro Group
