Delivering Seamless Connectivity

As digital connectivity becomes central to everyday life, users rely on a growing mix of access options—from fixed broadband and mobile networks to Wi-Fi, in-flight, roaming and satellite links. Yet this abundance has created a fragmented experience, forcing users to juggle multiple plans, logins, devices and coverage gaps, often with manual workarounds as they move between locations and networks.

In this article, by CableLabs’ Sanjay Patel, you’ll learn that Seamless Connectivity Services (SCS) proposes a unified alternative: a single, integrated service that automatically delivers the best available connection across all access types based on location, device and real-time network conditions. By treating connectivity as access-agnostic and network-aware, SCS represents a natural next step in the convergence of broadband and mobile services. Read on to explore what’s driving this model, how it could work and what it means for operators, application providers and end users. Learn more.
