Broadband Briefs for 12/12/07

December 12, 2007 By CED Staff

* Cox Enterprises promotes Dyer to CFO
By Mike Robuck

Cox Enterprises announced that John Dyer was named EVP and will assume the role of CFO during the summer of next year. Dyer will replace Robert O’Leary as CFO.

O’Leary will continue serving on Cox Enterprises’ board of directors.

Most recently, Dyer served as SVP and CFO at Cox Communications, a position he has held since 2005.

* JDSU adds module to test SNR in ROADM networks
By Brian Santo

JDSU has modified its in-band optical spectrum analyzer with a method for measuring the optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) in Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) networks. JDSU claims the capability is a first in the test industry.

JDSU engineered its OSA-320 module to test optical performance in the Agile Optical Network (AON), a dynamically reconfigurable DWDM network. In the AON, multiple ROADMs with different “filtering” technologies can be cascaded in a link, creating OSNR measurement problems for conventional OSA devices that employ out-of-band methods, the company said.

* Integra5’s i5 CSP chosen by Chilean telecom
By Traci Patterson

Integra5 has announced a partnership with American Telecommunication Holdings S.A. (ATI), a Chile-based provider of advanced telecommunications systems and services. ATI will deliver Integra5’s Converged Services Platform (i5 CSP) applications, including TV/PC Caller ID, SMS to TV, Customer Care Messaging to TV/PC and Voicemail through to TV.

The i5 CSP’s distributed, network-based architecture requires no truck rolls or new in-home hardware, and it scales to support millions of subscribers, the company said. The standards-based platform enables the delivery of real-time converged communications and content across voice, video, data and wireless services over IPTV, cable and hybrid networks. The platform also provides application-level personalization across multiple STBs, PCs and telephone lines within the home.

* Motorola ships 50-millionth SURFboard modem
By Brian Santo

Motorola said it has shipped its 50-millionth SURFboard modem, and it expects the line to continue to be a success. “We’re excited about the opportunities we’ll have around DOCSIS 3.0 in 2008,” said Alan Lefkof, VP of Motorola’s Broadband Solutions Group.

The company quoted Ovum, saying that current modem connections total 70 million worldwide, with an annual growth rate of approximately 10 percent through 2011. Ovum said it anticipates that revenues will keep pace and experience similar growth.

* AT&T’s U-verse receives new features in L.A.
By Traci Patterson

AT&T’s U-verse customers in the Los Angeles area now have access to new TV features: AT&T U-bar, which brings customizable weather, stock, sports and traffic information to the TV screen; Yellowpages.com TV, a new way to search for local businesses and other information on the TV; and AT&T Yahoo! Games, which are also available on the TV screen.
