The Lowdown on Low Latency
November 19, 2025
11:00am MT
Learn how low latency technologies are reshaping network performance Low and consistent latency is critical in applications like real-time communications, gaming, web browsing, e-commerce, financial trading and autonomous systems. Simply increasing throughput (speed) is not always enough — therefore, operators are focusing on end-to-end latency reduction, not just raw throughput.
This webinar will provide updates from both Comcast and CableLabs on the state of low latency technologies, both in the field and in developing standards, including opportunities in engineering, operations, deployment and migration.
What attendees will learn
Join us to hear from these Comcast and CableLabs experts on:
- What Comcast is doing to improve latency and why
- Why low latency plays such a key role in improving the customer experience
- How standards work is driving significant progress in solving Wi-Fi latency

Jason Livingood
Vice President of Technology Policy, Product & Standards, Comcast
Jason Livingood serves as Vice President of Technology Policy, Product & Standards at Comcast. He leads Comcast’s efforts in developing & deploying new open standards, supporting applied R&D via collaboration with the research community, engaging with governments, regulators, and other external key stakeholders on Technology Policy issues, and providing leadership on end user product technology roadmaps.
Jason joined Comcast in 1996 to help a small team transition from field trials to launching the high-speed Internet service business. He and a small team of colleagues later co-founded Comcast’s business class Internet services and he’s also been instrumental in the creation of Xfinity Voice, Xfinity Home and Xfinity WiFi. He has held a wide range of roles at the company, including in architecture, engineering, operations, software development, DevOps, and product management.
He also serves as Chair of the Board of the IETF Administration LLC and serves or has served in a wide range of other industry technical groups.
Doug Jones
Principal Architect, CableLabs
Doug Jones is a principal architect at CableLabs and is responsible for the DOCSIS 4.0 technical program. With 30 years in cable as both an operator and a supplier, Doug has been focused on driving fiber deeper into the HFC network, the evolution of DOCSIS technology, and FTTH and PON technologies.
In addition to DOCSIS technology, Doug participates in several SCTE standards working groups (most recently the “smart amplifier” work in NOS WG 4), and the local SCTE chapter (Rocky Mountain).
Greg White
Distinguished Technologist, CableLabs
Greg White has been a technical leader at CableLabs since 1999, playing a vital role in developing transformative technologies for the broadband industry. He has been a technical lead or key contributor on every iteration of DOCSIS since version 1.1, including serving as the lead architect of the Emmy Award-winning DOCSIS 3.0 specification. His influence extends across numerous other groundbreaking cable industry specifications.
Recently, Greg has been a leader in the development of low latency networking technologies that enable applications to achieve ultra-low round-trip delays even at high data rates, a critical advancement for modern network performance. These technologies, including L4S and NQB have been adopted in the Low Latency DOCSIS specifications, IETF standards, 5G standards, and 802.11 standards, and are being deployed today.
Greg remains an active contributor in leading technical forums, including the IETF, IEEE 802.11, and the Wireless Broadband Alliance. He also has a distinguished history of leadership in international standardization efforts, having served as the founding Chairman of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) Cable Technical Committee and leading cable modem technology standardization within the International Telecommunications Union (ITU).
