Five Cablelabs leaders have been selected to speak at Light Reading’s Cable Next-Gen Technologies & Strategies Conference in Denver on March 14 and 15, 2023. David Debrecht, vice president of wireless technologies at CableLabs, will be a keynote speaker, offering a unique perspective of cable’s mobile prospects and potential pitfalls. The discussion will include the […]

Tomorrow’s promise of 10G connectivity is steadily accelerating toward reality, thanks to the contributions of CableLabs and its members. The uncompromisingly reliable, more secure and 10-times-faster network of the near future will reshape how we live, work, learn and play by delivering faster symmetrical speeds, lower latencies, enhanced reliability and enhanced network security in a […]

What if our loved ones could easily receive life-changing or even lifesaving medical care no matter where they live? What would be different if critical learning opportunities were broadly available to students from all communities, including urban and rural areas? Scenarios like these could certainly change how we live our lives. In 2021, CableLabs issued […]

Anyone remember the jingle for Jolt® Cola? All the sugar and twice the caffeine! Perhaps the phrase dates me, but I still hear it in my head—although I now have new words to set to it: All the distance and twice the capacity! OK, maybe it doesn’t have quite the same ring to it. But […]

On April 27, 2022, attendees at the CableLabs 10G Showcase had a front-row seat to history in the making. Two U.S. cable operators, Charter and Comcast, unveiled a series of  DOCSIS 4.0 prototypes that reached near-10G speeds with incremental changes to the cable plant. Both demonstrations were based on distributed access architectures, using Remote-PHY and […]

The 15th annual Cable Next-Gen Technologies & Strategies conference is kicking off today, and we are excited to connect with our colleagues throughout the cable industry to discuss opportunities and challenges in a post-pandemic era. We believe it is important that stakeholders throughout the cable industry hear about the latest and greatest trends and developments […]

We are pleased to announce today’s issuance of new versions of the Flexible MAC Architecture (FMA) System and MAC Manager Interface (MMI) specifications. This release denotes the completion of phase one for the FMA specifications and opens the doors for beginning FMA interoperability events. Speaking of such events, we are also pleased to inform you […]

Last year, CableLabs and its members took major steps toward making 10G a reality. There were numerous launches, enhancements, and even a couple of “firsts.” Every one of these initiatives—from launching the 10G Challenge to enhancing specification requirements—will play an important role in building the faster, more secure and reliable networks of the future. Here […]

It’s the year 2031, and the pandemic is in the past. While Dave drinks his morning coffee and reads the news, a headline catches his attention. A large quantum computer is finally operational! Suddenly, Dave’s mind is racing. After few seconds, as his heartbeat slows, he looks up into the mirror and proudly says, “Yes, […]

This month, we continue our CableLabs 101 series by peeling back the next layer of the hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) distributed access network with a recently released specification called Flexible MAC Architecture (FMA). This technology isn’t as well known as DOCSIS®, Remote PHY or Coherent Optics, but it’s just as essential to make 10G a reality […]
