All too often, people equate the word “cable” with “coax” (aka coaxial cable), the insulated copper cable that cable companies have historically used to connect devices around the world and deliver information and entertainment. “Cable,” however, isn’t just made of metal but also of glass: fiber-optic cable (aka fiber). The use of fiber in cable […]

As we progress toward a future of context-aware connectivity and adaptive networks, what will ultimately move the needle for the industry is a collaborative ecosystem built on a shared vision of interoperability. Our Technology Vision, developed in collaboration with member operators, provides a strategic framework to accelerate the delivery of next-generation connectivity and beyond — […]

The days of measuring network performance by speed alone are long gone. Nearly six years ago, the broadband industry launched its 10G initiative, setting in motion significant achievements toward the widespread availability of a future-ready network capable of much more than multi-gigabit speeds. CableLabs has delivered on every commitment of the initiative since, and we […]
