Liwest Kabelmedien GmbH, the second-largest Austrian cable operator, recently picked Arris to help monitor and manage its DOCSIS network operations.
Liwest, which serves more than 135,000 residential and business customers in upper Austria, is using Arris’ ServAssure Advanced Performance Management Software to manage its DOCSIS network.
ServAssure Advanced gives cable providers the ability to proactively address network and customer service assurance while reducing mean time to repair (MTTR) by presenting complex data and health metrics in meaningful, organized views.
Arris said the diagnostics, along with recommendations, help operators improve customer satisfaction, increase network capacity and reduce operational costs with minimal capex.
ServAssure also provides customer experience monitoring and performance tools to optimize the quality and capacity of DOCSIS networks, enabling improvements in available bandwidth and customer quality of experience (QoE).
“We are committed to ensuring the highest-possible degree of customer experience,” said Hubert Riedl, Liwest’s executive vice president of products and services. “We compared the network and service assurance solutions that are currently available and chose Arris ServAssure Advanced. It offers comprehensive assurance features in a modular offering that can be deployed across our organization, adding consistency, flexibility and efficiencies to our network operations.”
